Grown from a Hakka-village school's branch campus.
Xinshi Elementary was established in 1959 as "Songwu Elementary School Beishi Branch," after Pingzhen Township purchased the land. Classes initially met temporarily at the Zhongli Agricultural Irrigation Association building starting in November 1962, before new classrooms were built the following year. The school was renamed Xinshi Elementary in 1968, when nine-year compulsory education was implemented nationwide. Its first independent principal, Liang Ren-tian, was appointed in 1964, and a music program was added in 1995.
新勢國小創立於1959年，平鎮鄉公所購地後，初名「宋屋國小北勢分校」。1962年11月起，班級曾暫時借用中壢農田水利會辦公室上課，隔年新教室完工後才遷入。1968年配合全國實施九年國民義務教育，正式更名為「新勢國小」。首任獨立校長梁人天先生於1964年到任，1995年增設音樂班。
