Grown from a branch class into a village school.
Yongle Elementary began on September 1, 1952, as a branch class of Haoxiu National School, becoming a full branch school in 1953. Under founding principal Wu Youxu, it became a fully independent school in 1957 as Changhua County Yongle National School, and was renamed Yongle National Elementary School in 1968 as part of Taiwan's broader school-system reform. Today the school runs a distinctive "cauliflower" (花椰菜) farm-to-table curriculum built around the area's signature local crop.
永樂國小的前身可追溯至民國41年（1952年）9月1日成立的好修國校分班，並於民國42年（1953年）升格為分校。在創校校長吳友旭的帶領下，於民國46年（1957年）獨立設校，定名為彰化縣永樂國民學校，並於民國57年（1968年）學制改革後更名為永樂國民小學。學校目前推動以在地特產花椰菜為核心的「農場到餐桌」課程。
