A century of growth from one borrowed classroom.
Zhongzhuang Elementary traces its origins to 1920, during the Japanese colonial era, when it opened as a branch of Daliao Public School (大寮公學校), initially borrowing space in a local temple to hold its single class. It became an independent school in 1937. Today the school has grown considerably, with 34 classes and 884 students enrolled in the 2022–2023 school year.

Linked to Daliao's first school.
Zhongzhuang ("middle village") sits in the historically agricultural northern part of Daliao District, and the school's own history — beginning as a branch of Daliao Public School — ties it directly to the earliest chapter of formal education in the district. See the Kaohsiung county page for more on the region.
