From branch campus to independent school.
Shetou Junior High originated in 1962 as the Shetou branch campus of Changhua County Tianzhong Junior High School. It became an independent school in 1964, named "Changhua County Shetou Junior High School" (彰化縣立社頭初級中學). In 1968, with the nationwide introduction of nine-year compulsory education, it was renamed to its current name, Shetou Junior High. Today, the school offers specialized sports classes in track and field, badminton, and basketball, along with summer camps in MV dance and violin.
社頭國中源起於民國51年（1962年）設立的田中初級中學社頭分校，民國53年（1964年）獨立設校，定名為「彰化縣立社頭初級中學」。民國57年（1968年）因應九年國民義務教育實施，更名為現今的「社頭國中」。目前學校設有田徑、羽球、籃球等體育班，並開辦MV舞蹈與小提琴等暑期營隊。
