From orchards to classrooms.
Jianxing Elementary began in 1957 as a branch campus of the century-old Duxing Elementary School, becoming its own school in 1959 as North District's population rapidly expanded in the postwar years. Before construction, the campus site was covered in bamboo groves and lychee orchards — a rural landscape that has since given way to one of North District's busy residential neighborhoods.
健行國小前身為民國46年（1957年）設立的篤行國小分班，於民國48年（1959年）獨立設校，正值北區人口在戰後迅速成長的時期。建校前，校地原是一片竹林與荔枝園，如今已發展為北區繁忙的住宅社區。

Jianxing's founding illustrates North District's rapid postwar population growth, which required splitting new schools off from established ones.
From farmland to neighborhood.
Jianxing Elementary's origins as a branch of the century-old Duxing Elementary School, built on former bamboo groves and lychee orchards, trace the transformation of North District from a rural, agricultural fringe into a dense residential neighborhood over the course of the 20th century.
