A distinctive way of splitting a crowded district.
Yonghe Junior High was founded in 1968 as a boys-only school, moving to co-ed enrollment in 1993. For decades, it shared its student catchment with neighboring Fuhe Junior High through a distinctive local rule: students were assigned by the last digit of their household-registration ID number, with odd numbers going to Yonghe and even numbers to Fuhe.
永和國中創立於民國57年(1968年),創校初期為男子學校,於民國82年(1993年)起改為男女合校。多年來,該校與鄰近的福和國中以獨特的在地規則劃分學區——依學生身分證字號末碼分配,單數就讀永和國中、雙數就讀福和國中。

🔢 A District Split by ID Number
身分證字號劃分學區
For decades, enrollment was split with Fuhe Junior High by the last digit of students' household-registration ID number — odd numbers here, even numbers to Fuhe — a distinctive local zoning quirk.

🏫 A Fixture of Yonghe Since 1968
服務永和逾半世紀
Now well past its fiftieth year, the school has been a steady presence in Yonghe District's secondary education landscape since its founding.
A quirk born of crowded geography.
The odd/even ID split with neighboring Fuhe Junior High reflects Yonghe's extremely compressed urban geography, where school district boundaries had to be drawn by administrative rule rather than physical distance. See the New Taipei county page for more on the region.
