A dozen years as a branch, then independence.
Dazhong Elementary began in 1971 as a branch of Zhuifen Elementary School, serving the small farming hamlet of Sheshan (社腳里) on the Dadu Plateau. It became a fully independent school in 1983. Its slow path from branch to independent institution mirrors the gradual settlement pattern of farming hamlets across the plateau.
