Principal Teng Shih-wen joined Santiao Elementary School in August 2026. He came to Santiao from Rixin Elementary in Fuxing Township, where he had been principal since 2019, and before that led Xinmin Elementary in Tianzhong. His path into school leadership began with fifteen years in the classroom as a Changhua teacher.
鄧仕文校長自民國 115 年 8 月起接任三條國小校長。在此之前，他於福興鄉日新國小擔任校長（自民國 108 年起），更早則擔任田中鎮新民國小校長；而他的教育之路，是從彰化縣長達十五年的教學現場開始的。
He trained first as a special-education teacher and later completed a master's degree in elementary education, and for many years has served on the county's guidance teams for social studies and for gender-equity education. He describes the sense of mission he has carried through more than a decade in schools in a single sentence.
他最初主修特殊教育，之後取得國民教育研究所碩士；多年來並擔任彰化縣課程與教學輔導團社會領域及性別平等教育議題輔導小組的輔導員與副召集人。他把自己十多年來在教育現場體會到的「使命感」，濃縮成一句話。
From special education to a master's in elementary education.
從特殊教育，到國民教育研究所碩士。
Fifteen years in the classroom, then three schools to lead.
十五年的教學現場，再到三所學校的校長室。
Kept current, on purpose.
持續進修，是刻意的選擇。
Talent, attitude and opportunity — and the room to grow all three.
天賦、態度與機會──以及讓這三者一起長大的空間。
In The Element, Ken Robinson writes that our "element" is the meeting point of natural aptitude and personal passion — and that to truly live it, a person also needs attitude and opportunity. The Nobel laureate Edward Appleton put it another way: an eager, wholehearted attitude matters more than specialist knowledge. Principal Teng takes both to heart. The purpose of education, he believes, is to cultivate a positive attitude and to give every child an equal chance.
肯‧羅賓森在《讓天賦自由》中指出，「天賦（Element）」就是天分與熱情結合之處；而要能真正活出天賦，還需要態度與機會。諾貝爾獎得主愛德華‧亞皮爾頓也說：一個人想有所成就，熱誠的態度遠比專門知識重要。鄧校長把這兩句話放在心上——他相信，教育的目的，就是正向態度的培養與均等機會的給予。
Such an education keeps the student at the centre and treats each child as a whole person, aiming to develop their potential fully and to nurture the freedom that comes from being self-aware, self-disciplined and self-directed. Principal Teng builds this on three words — fit, fairness and excellence — worked out through five areas of practice: administrative leadership, teacher professionalism, drawing out what students can do, shaping the campus environment, and bringing community resources together.
這樣的教育以學生為主體，把每個孩子視為完整的個體，目標是充分發展潛能，培養孩子自覺、自律、自為的自由品質。鄧校長以「適性、均等、卓越」為辦學信念，透過五個面向逐步落實：行政領導、教師專業、學生展能、情境營造與資源整合。
