《About HHSH》
Overview
Our school used to be a branch of National Tainan First Senior High School. Since its establishment on October 20th, 1959, our school has been a stepping stone to outstanding universities in Taiwan for more than 50 years. It is located in the Hsin-hua District of Tainan and abuts on some picturesque tourist attractions, such as Hutoupi Reservoir (虎頭埤) and Xinhua Experimental Forest Station (中興林場). Our school is also famed as ‘Hsin-hua Park.’ When wandering around our campus, you will find yourself surrounded by tall trees and beautiful flowers. Besides, you may also hear some polite greetings from our students with friendly smiles on their faces.
Our school is a coeducational regular senior high school, which doesn’t offer vocational training programs. There are 12 classes in each grade and the total number of our students is about 1,300. In 2010, 2013, and 2017 in a row, our school was officially awarded first prize for school evaluation. On top of that, in 2013, we also received a tremendous honor from the Ministry of Education—the High Quality School Accreditation—for providing the students in the local community with superb educational resources.
