Jiuzhuang Elementary was founded in September 1955 as "臺北縣南港鎮南港國校舊莊分校," a branch of Nangang Elementary. It became independent as "臺北縣南港鎮舊莊國民學校" in September 1958, and held a belated formal opening ceremony in June 1959, with the ribbon cut personally by Dr. Hu Shih, who lived nearby at Academia Sinica until his death in 1962. It is one of two schools split off from the original Nangang Elementary, alongside Yucheng Elementary.
舊莊國小創立於民國44年（1955年）9月，初名「臺北縣南港鎮南港國校舊莊分校」，為南港國小的分校。民國47年（1958年）9月獨立設校，定名「臺北縣南港鎮舊莊國民學校」，並於民國48年（1959年）6月補行正式啟用典禮，由當時居住於鄰近中央研究院、直至1962年辭世的胡適博士親自剪綵。舊莊國小是南港國小分出獨立的兩所學校之一，另一所為玉成國小。

Nangang's farming and tea-growing hills.
Located in Nangang's hillier, historically rural Jiuzhuang area — once a farming and tea-growing settlement — the school's Hu Shih connection links it to the same research-institution heritage now anchoring Nangang's modern biotech and academic identity.
