Construction has commenced on the fourth phase of expansion for Qingpu Junior High School in Zhongli District, Taoyuan City, Taiwan. This new phase aims to address the escalating demand for educational facilities in the rapidly growing Qingpu region.
Since the first phase of the school's construction was completed in 2016, subsequent expansions in phases two and three have been undertaken. However, the school's current enrollment of 42 classes is already at full capacity, indicating that previous expansions have not kept pace with the area's population boom and the resulting surge in student numbers.
The Taoyuan City Government's Public Works Bureau initiated the construction on June 6. Upon completion, projected for 2028, the new facilities are expected to alleviate overcrowding and accommodate the continued influx of students in Qingpu, ensuring sufficient educational resources for the local community.
