About · 學校簡介

A school that started by borrowing its neighbor's classrooms.

Youchang Junior High opened in September 1973, with its inaugural class of six sections and 317 students initially borrowing classrooms from neighboring Youchang Elementary School before its own campus was ready. The roughly 3.5-hectare campus includes teaching buildings named for the traditional virtues of benevolence, righteousness, and peace ("仁愛," "信義," "和平"), alongside buildings named "莊敬," "自強," and "勤學." The school operates under the motto "Propriety, Righteousness, Integrity, and Shame" (禮義廉恥), and its alumni include singer Yoga Lin (孔令奇), who appeared on the cover of the 2008 yearbook, and Chan Shun-kuei, a former deputy administrator of Taiwan's Environmental Protection Administration.

A name shared with its elementary neighbor.

🏘️

The school's name, "Youchang" (右昌), descends from the Qing-dynasty village name "右沖庄" — a name it shares with neighboring Youchang Elementary School, both rooted in the same historic settlement in northern Nanzih. See the Kaohsiung county page for more.
