A century-old school that began in a temple.
Rende Elementary School was founded on March 31, 1918, originally as “Chelujiao Public School Tuku Branch,” using the Qingning Temple as its campus. It became independent as “Rende Public School” in 1921, and was renamed several times through the mid-20th century before becoming “Rende Elementary School” in 1968. The school celebrated its 100th anniversary around 2018, marked by a dedicated commemorative page. Denan Elementary split off from it in 1962, and a Shanglun branch school was established in 1947. Today the school serves about 1,064 students across the Rende, Renyi, and Xintian villages, with a campus area of about 2.1148 square kilometers.
