The mother school of Huwei Town.
Huwei Elementary School was founded in 1918 as a branch classroom of Tuku Public School, becoming independent as Huwei Public School in 1921. In 2018, the school celebrated its 100th anniversary with about 2,000 alumni in attendance. As the original parent school from which Zhongzheng, Pinghe, and Liren elementary schools all later split, Huwei Elementary's century-plus history runs parallel to the rise of the Huwei Sugar Refinery.
虎尾國小創立於1918年（大正7年），最初為土庫公學校的分教場，1921年獨立設校，定名為虎尾公學校。2018年，學校舉辦創校百週年校慶，約2,000名校友返校共襄盛舉。作為中正、平和、立仁等國小陸續分設而出的母校，虎尾國小逾百年的校史與虎尾糖廠的興起相互輝映。
