HCHS, originally called Shinchiku Prefectural Shinchiku Middle School (Japanese: 新竹州立新竹中學校),[1] was established on 1 April 1922. After World War II in 1945, it was renamed Taiwan Provincial Hsinchu High School. In July 1968, after compulsory education was extended to nine years, it was renamed Taiwan Provincial Hsinchu Senior High School, and on 1 February 2000, renamed National Hsinchu Senior High School.
After the restoration in 1945, HCHS was a six-year high school, with a three-year Junior and a three-year Senior High division. However, the junior high division was suspended in 1957. In 1987, HCHS was directed to set up a math and science gifted class, 1998 a music-gifted class, and in 2004 a language and literature gifted class.
Buildings and facilitiesEdit
HCHS covers an area of 10 hectares, well equipped with a students' activity center, gym, swimming pool, athletic field and sport courts.

Every year, students participate in international science exhibitions and are constant winners in international Olympic Games for science.
The musical clubs such as the choir, the brass band, the harmonica club and the Chinese music club have a long history. They attend national musical contests and win many prizes every year.
