Principal Tsai Chin-shan says that there are only six classes in the entire school, one for each grade. Even the largest of these has only 24 students, while the smallest has 15. Total enrollment is only about one-third what it was 20 years ago.
以琉球鄉天南小學來說，校長蔡金山表示，全校只有六班，一個年級一班，人數最多只有二十四人，最少的是十五人，幾乎是二十多年前的三分之一。
