Banqiao Senior High School


The New Taipei Municipal Banqiao Senior High School is a high school in Banqiao District, New Taipei, Taiwan.

Introduction

The school was founded in September, 1946, with the name Taipei County Banqiao Junior High School. It was also called “Garden of Lindens”, for there were once two ancient linden trees.
In 1950 Banqiao Junior High School turned into senior high school. The current school, including junior and senior high, was formally established in 1952. The same year it was restructured and titled Taiwan Provincial Banqiao Senior High School. In 2000 the school was renamed National Banqiao Senior High School.
In 2002, due to the rising status of New Taipei City from Taipei County, the school was renamed New Taipei City Panciao High School. There are 61 classes, composed of male and female students. Among them, there are three classes for mathematical gifted students, and one class for both mentally and physically disabled students.

History

The Banqiao senior high school song is by Luo-Shoushu lyrics, Lin-Dongzhe composition as follows:

Chinese lyrics

遠山聳翠，淡水溶溶，吾校秀毓而靈鍾；
規模宏廓，校風肅雍，絃歌載誦樂融融。
我們要實踐倫理，化俗移風，我們要篤行民主，天下為公，我們要精研科學，征服太空！
同學們，熱愛我們的國家，必孝必忠，負起我們的責任，亦毅亦弘，爭取我們的榮譽，為聖為雄。
看，古今中外，有志者畢竟成功。
