A school named for a district border.
Zhongping Elementary takes its name — "Zhong-ping" — from its location straddling the border between Zhongli and Pingzhen districts (the school's exact founding date is not confirmed in available sources, though the school's own materials suggest an age of roughly 60 years). The school serves roughly 1,440 students in 55 classes, with about 30% of students coming from disadvantaged backgrounds, including single-parent families, new-immigrant families, and 430 Indigenous students. Its school district, the Guoling (過嶺) area, is described as a "typical Hakka village," containing well-preserved traditional buildings.
中平國小的校名「中平」取自其地處中壢與平鎮交界的位置(確切創校年份未見於現有公開資料,惟依學校自身資料估計約有60年歷史)。學校現有學生約1,440人、55班,約30%學生來自弱勢家庭,包括單親、新住民家庭,以及430名原住民學生。學區所在的過嶺地區被形容為「典型的客家聚落」,保存了許多傳統建築。
