About · 學校簡介

A century of memory in Shetou Township.

Shetou Elementary is one of the oldest schools in Shetou Township, tracing its roots to the Japanese colonial era. Its exact founding date carries some uncertainty in the historical record — the school marked its 100th-anniversary celebration in February 2017, an event attended by Taiwan's Vice President, while later county event references point to a 120th-anniversary celebration, suggesting an even earlier founding date that could not be independently confirmed. The National Culture Memory Bank holds an artifact and photo of the school's original temporary classrooms from its founding period, a small window into its earliest days.

社頭國小是社頭鄉歷史最悠久的學校之一,校史可追溯至日治時期。確切創校年份在史料中仍有些許不確定性——學校於2017年2月舉辦建校百年校慶,由中華民國副總統親臨祝賀;然而後續縣府活動資料則提及120週年校慶,暗示創校時間可能更早,惟尚無法獨立查證確認。國家文化記憶庫典藏有該校創校初期臨時教室的文物與照片,留下珍貴的早期校史紀錄。
