A small school with a big reading reputation.
Xikou Elementary takes its name from a combination of two local place names: "Xi" (西) from the Xifang community and "Kou" (口) from Shuangkou, a well-known traditional tourist village in Kinmen. It is a small rural school, with about six classes and roughly 62 students, but it has earned national recognition as a "Reading Cornerstone School." The school also runs community charity events, including a winter solstice outreach program that brings together students, teachers, and parents.
