History

National Hsin-Feng Senior High School was founded as two-year Gueiren Agriculture School (Template:Zh) on 27 March 1929 in order to cultivate local young people to professionals on agriculture. It was later renamed to Gueiren Rural Youth School (Template:Zh) in 1935, Hsin-Feng Youth School (Template:Zh) in 1936, Hsin-Feng Secondary School (Template:Zh) in 1939, and eventually changed to three-year Hsin-Feng Vocational Agriculture School (Template:Zh). Before 1945, the title of school was changed five times and there had been four principals.

In 1945, the school was renamed to Tainan County Hsin-Feng Primary Agriculture School. In August 1952, started to enroll female students and increased the class number to 8. New classrooms, laboratory and library were constructed one after another. In August 1956, the school was transformed to the five-year Tainan County Hsin-Feng Agriculture Vocational High School (Template:Zh). Foreign aid from the United States came in and helped to construct school buildings and to improve teaching facilities. In 1963, the Department of Domestic Affairs was set up.

On August 1, 1968, the government decided to extend compulsory education to 9 years. Therefore, the school was transformed to a comprehensive high school with both ordinary and vocational departments and renamed to Taiwan Provincial Hsin-Feng Senior High School (Template:Zh). The school stopped taking in vocational students in 1972. Since then, it concentrated on ordinary high school education and tried to balance the difference between urban and rural education. In 2000, renamed to National Hsin-Feng Senior High School (Template:Zh).

Nevertheless, in 1996, the school was transformed to comprehensive high school and enroll vocational students again, offering more choices for students. Now National Hsin-Feng Senior High School has about 1200 students and the school campus occupies 8 hectares.
