Beside a former military village.
Zili Elementary was founded in 1964 and celebrated its 60th anniversary in October 2024. The school sits next to the former Zili New Village (自立新村), a KMT military dependents' village, and the public-housing redevelopment later built on the same site — tying the school directly to Zhongli's postwar wave of Nationalist veteran settlement. Today, Zili runs a Hakka-language featured-school program (客語特色學校), reflecting the district's layered mix of communities. A new activity center and gymnasium, shaped like a rectangular mini-dome, has been under construction in recent years.
自立國小創立於民國53年（1964年），於民國113年（2024年）10月歡慶一甲子校慶。學校緊鄰昔日的自立新村眷村，以及後來在原址興建的自立國宅，直接連結中壢地區戰後國軍老兵安置聚落的歷史。目前學校設有客語特色學校課程，反映當地族群交融的多元樣貌。近年學校也興建了造型如長方形迷你穹頂的新活動中心暨體育館。

🏘️ Beside a Former Military Village
緊鄰眷村舊址
Zili Elementary sits next to the former Zili New Village, a KMT military dependents' village, and the public-housing development that later replaced it — a direct tie to Zhongli's postwar veteran-settlement history.

The school runs a dedicated Hakka-language program, one strand of Zhongli's layered mix of Hakka, Hoklo, and military-veteran communities.
🎂 Six Decades of History
一甲子校慶
Zili marked its 60th anniversary in October 2024, celebrating six decades of serving the neighborhood around the former Zili New Village.
A crossroads of Zhongli's communities.
Zili Elementary's location, directly beside a former KMT military-dependents' village, ties the school to one strand of Zhongli's layered migration history — the wave of Nationalist veterans who settled in the district after 1949. Its Hakka-language program adds another thread to that same story, situating the school at a genuine crossroads of the communities that make up modern Zhongli.
