From branch campus to its own identity.
Xinzhuang Elementary began as a branch campus of Maguang Elementary School in Tuku, becoming independent in September 1961. The school took its current name, Xinzhuang, in 1968. Note that the school's registered Chinese name uses the character 庄 (新庄) rather than 莊 — a small but notable detail in its official records.
新莊國小原為土庫馬光國小的分校,1961年(民國50年)9月獨立設校,1968年更為現名「新莊」。值得留意的是,學校登記的中文校名使用「庄」字(新庄),而非「莊」字,是校方正式紀錄上的一個小細節。
