A hilltop school named for its ridge.
Lingyun Junior High began in April 1969 as a preparatory committee for a Longtan Junior High branch campus in Shanglin Village, before being formally established and named that August with its first incoming class. The school takes its name from "凌雲崗" (Lingyun Ridge), the hill in Shanglin where its campus sits. It was renamed from Taoyuan County to Taoyuan City designation in December 2014 when Taoyuan County was upgraded to a special municipality, and it has since marked its 50th anniversary with school-founding festivities.
凌雲國中的前身，是民國58年（1969年）4月成立的龍潭國中上林分部籌備委員會，同年8月正式成立並招收第一屆新生。校名取自校址所在的丘陵「凌雲崗」。民國103年（2014年）12月桃園縣升格直轄市，校名隨之改為「桃園市立凌雲國民中學」。學校並曾舉辦建校五十週年慶祝活動。

The school's name and site, "凌雲崗" (Lingyun Ridge), tie it to Longtan's hilly tea-and-farmland terrain in the Shanglin area — a landscape quite different from the town-center schools clustered near Longtan Lake. See the Taoyuan county page for more on the region.
