Lehe Elementary School

Lehe Elementary traces its origins to 1900, when it began as an offshoot of a Taipei-based Japanese-language training school — making it widely cited as the earliest-established school in all of Yuli Township, with over 100 years of continuous history. The school was renamed multiple times over the following decades and relocated to its present Lehe site in 1947, taking its current name in 1968. Notably, the school's original 1900–1947 site in town is where Yuli Junior High now stands, meaning Lehe and Yuli Junior High share a single, unbroken educational lineage stretching back well over a century.

樂合國小的歷史可追溯至西元1900年，最初是台北一所日語傳習所的分支機構——因此被廣泛認為是整個玉里鎮創校最早的學校，擁有超過百年的連續辦學歷史。學校歷經數次更名，並於民國36年（1947年）遷至現今的樂合校地，民國57年（1968年）確立現名。值得一提的是，學校在1900年至1947年間位於鎮上的原始校址，正是今日玉里國中的所在地——這意味著樂合國小與玉里國中共享同一條跨越百餘年、未曾中斷的教育血脈。
