🔗 Born from Yanshui's Founding School
源自鹽水港公學校
Its founding as a branch of the Yanshui public school reflects a historic administrative link between Liuying and neighboring Yanshui before Liuying became its own district.
Liuying's old garrison name.
The school's original name, Chamuying (查畝營), is Liuying's old Qing-dynasty place name, referring to land measured out for garrison troops. Its founding as a branch of the Yanshui public school reflects the historic administrative link between Liuying and Yanshui before Liuying became a separate district — a connection that also runs through several other schools in this batch.
