On August 1, 1998, Chang Pao-kuang, the director of the Bureau of Education, was assigned to be the director of the Linkou High School's preliminary office, beginning the school's blueprinting. On February 1, 2000, the planned school was nationalised and thus renamed as the National Linkou High School.
