A young school with a wide reach.
Yijia Junior High School opened in 1996, making it one of the newer secondary schools in Lujhu District. Its attendance zone stretches across eight villages — Jianan, Jiabei, Shedong, Shexi, Shenan, Shezhong, Zhuyuan, and Xiakeng — drawing students from a wide swath of rural Lujhu. The school runs both a bilingual experimental class and a sports experimental class, reflecting a push toward specialized programming even at a relatively young institution.
一甲國中創立於民國85年（1996年），是路竹區較年輕的國中之一。學區涵蓋甲南、甲北、社東、社西、社南、社中、竹園、下坑等八個里，服務範圍廣及路竹鄉間各角落。學校開設雙語實驗班與體育實驗班，展現即使是年輕學校也積極發展特色課程的企圖心。

🏫 One of Lujhu's Youngest Schools
路竹最年輕國中之一
Founded in 1996, Yijia is among the newer secondary schools in a district where many schools trace back to the Japanese colonial era.
Land carved from the Qing era.
The name "Yijia" (一甲, "first jia") reflects the Qing-era land-survey unit once used to divide reclaimed farmland in the area — a naming pattern shared with the neighboring elementary school of the same name. See the Kaohsiung county page for more on the region.
