Dajia Elementary School

Dajia Elementary School was founded in 1954 and relocated to its current site in 1968 due to flight-path restrictions affecting the Dajia area near Songshan Airport. The school's history took a dramatic turn in 1991, when the Keelung River-straightening project ("基隆河大佳段截彎取直") displaced many local households — enrollment plunged from roughly 600 students to just 42.

In response, the school opened itself as a citywide "large-district" school from the 1995 school year onward, gradually rebuilding its enrollment. It later made local news for parents camping overnight with tents and sleeping bags to secure enrollment slots — a striking sign of its subsequent popularity. Today the school sits directly beside Dajia Riverside Park, one of Taipei's major Keelung River-front recreational parks.

大佳國小創校於1954年（民國43年），1968年因松山機場航道限建規定影響大佳地區，遷至現址。1991年（民國80年）基隆河大佳段截彎取直工程使當地大量住戶遷離，學校學生人數一度從約600人驟降至僅42人。

為此，學校自1995學年度起開放為全市「大學區」學校，逐步重建學生人數。後來甚至傳出家長攜帳篷、睡袋徹夜排隊搶登記入學名額的新聞，可見學校後來人氣回升之顯著。如今學校緊鄰大佳河濱公園九號水門，是臺北市基隆河畔主要休憩公園之一。
