National Hsinhua Vocational High School

National Hsinhua Vocational High School was founded in April 1926, during the Japanese colonial era, as "Tainan Prefecture Xinhua Agricultural Supplementary School," training agricultural technicians for the Xinhua region. It was renamed "Tainan Prefecture Xinhua Agricultural Specialized School" in 1931, became "Tainan County Xinhua First Junior Agricultural Vocational School" in 1946, and "Tainan County Xinhua Junior Agricultural Vocational School" in 1949, undergoing roughly seven subsequent reorganizations as it shifted through electrical/electronics and mechanical departments on its way to today's industrial vocational school. It briefly ran a comprehensive-high-school track from 2004 to 2016 before reverting fully to vocational departments, and now offers eight vocational departments, three practical-skills programs, a special-needs vocational competency department, and a continuing-education electronics division.

新化高工創校於日治時期大正15年（1926年）4月，初名「臺南州立新化農業補習學校」，培育新化地區農業技術人才。昭和6年（1931年）更名「臺南州立新化農業專修學校」，民國35年（1946年）改為「臺南縣立新化第一初級農業職業學校」，民國38年（1949年）再改稱「臺南縣立新化初級農業職業學校」，其後歷經約七次改制，逐步轉型為電機電子、機械等科系，發展成今日的工業職業學校。學校曾於2004至2016學年度短暫開設綜合高中課程，後於2016年全面回歸職業類科，目前設有八個職業類科、三個實用技能學程、特教職能科，以及電子科進修部。
