A small school with a big reading habit.
Renguang Elementary is a small rural school in Jiuying Village, reportedly enrolling around six classes and roughly 45 students in recent years. A reference to the school's 60th-anniversary yearbook suggests it is roughly six decades old, though an exact founding date could not be confirmed from available records. The school runs its own bilingual program, known locally as the "Renguang Bilingual School Network," and has been recognized for its "Diligent Farming and Reading" (勤耕與讀) reading-promotion initiative, a name that plays on the area's farming roots.
仁光國小是位於舊營里的小型鄉村學校,近年約有6班、學生人數約45人。校方曾提及「仁光國小60週年校刊」,推估創校約一甲子,惟確切創校年份目前尚無法從現有資料完全確認。學校推動自有雙語課程「仁光雙語校網」,並以「勤耕與讀」閱讀推廣活動獲得肯定,呼應在地務農傳統。

🏫 A Small, Close-Knit Campus
小而緊密的校園
With around six classes and roughly 45 students in recent years, Renguang offers the kind of close-knit learning environment typical of Taiwan's smallest rural schools.
Yanshui's old garrison villages.
The school sits in Jiuying ("Old Camp"), a village name recalling Qing-era military garrison settlements scattered through the Yanshui area — part of the same frontier-era naming pattern found in Liuying's Chamuying. That layered military and farming history sits alongside Yanshui's better-known identity as a historic river-port town and the home of the annual Beehive Fireworks Festival.
