About · 學校簡介

Built by the community it still serves.

Pitou Elementary began in 1936, when local residents donated and raised funds to buy land and build three classrooms and two teacher dormitories as a branch school. It became an independent school in 1947 and took its current name in 1957, following Taiwan's nine-year compulsory education reform. Today the school continues that community spirit, with student arts clubs performing at public events and children joining rice-planting activities to help fund their own field trips.

埤頭國小創校於民國25年(1936年),當時由地方居民集資、捐地興建三間教室與兩間教師宿舍作為分教場。民國36年(1947年)獨立設校,並於民國46年(1957年)九年國教改制後定為現名。學校至今仍延續這份社區精神,學生藝文社團(如陶笛、小提琴、舞蹈、說故事)曾在高鐵快閃活動與「彰化建縣三百年」展覽中演出,孩子們也透過插秧活動籌措校外教學經費。
