Our History

Taipei Kuei Shan School (Kuei Shan), fully accredited by the Taipei City Government Department of Education in the Republic of China, was established in August 1963 as a small private K-9 school and intended to be an experiment in Taiwanese Education. Founder Professor Hsiong Hui-Ying hypothesized that the large class sizes of her time (around 50 students per class) were the root cause of many educational issues including ineffective learning and misbehavior, and utilized Kuei Shan to investigate the relationship between reduced class size and strengths-based child and youth development.
