A neighborhood school in the town center.
Jianguo Elementary was founded in 1959 as a neighborhood school in central Qingshui. Its name, meaning "nation-building," reflects a naming trend common to schools founded in Taiwan's early post-war ROC period, when many new institutions took names reflecting national reconstruction. Today it remains a relatively small school serving families in the heart of Qingshui.
