About · 學校簡介

From shrine grounds to a mountain hub's flagship school.

National Chutung Senior High traces its roots to 1946, when it opened as a branch of Hsinchu Junior High before becoming independent in 1948 and being elevated to a provincial senior high school in 1961. In 1951, the campus moved to its present site at the foot of Fengyang Mountain — the former grounds of the Japanese colonial-era Zhudong Shinto Shrine. Today the school spans roughly 66,407 square meters, runs both day and evening divisions for around 1,700 students, and stands as sister institution to nearby Zhudong Junior High.

國立竹東高中前身可追溯至民國35年(1946年),最初為新竹中學的分部,民國37年(1948年)獨立設校,民國50年(1961年)升格為省立高中。民國40年(1951年),校址遷至現址——鳳凰山麓,也就是日治時期竹東神社的舊址。如今校地約66,407平方公尺,設有日間部與夜間部,學生約1,700人,並與鄰近的竹東國中為姊妹校。
