It operates as a three-year community high school,[1] offering programs in sports, mathematics and science class, and general education.

Huwei Girls' High School was once famous for its unique campus landscape, with some buildings designed by Taiwan's first female architect, Xiu Zelan.

[3] Due to its proximity to the Huwei Sugar Factory, the school was affected by Allied bombings toward the end of World War II.

However, the Taiwan Provincial Administrative Executive Office's Department of Education, noting that China was an agriculturally-based nation, determined that it was inappropriate to close the agricultural school.

However, due to declining enrollment, Provincial Huwei High reduced its classes, and the early "recommended admission quotas" were gradually phased out.

Li organized alumni, including teachers Lin Jiuhua and Li Chaomao, as well as the long-serving teacher Chen Shusheng, to establish the "Provincial Huwei High School Alumni Million Dollar Scholarship,"[Note 1] with Lin Jiuhua and others being recognized in the first "Fragrant Records of the Teaching Garden"[Note 2] published by the Department of Education.

Li served as the acting principal of the newly merged school, which was located on the former Huwei Girls' High campus.

In August 1985, Li retired upon reaching the age limit, and Taiwan Book Store [zh] Manager Cai Jinchong succeeded him as principal of Provincial Huwei High.

[16] The position was then filled by Chen Longxiong, who initiated construction of a five-story male dormitory, Jinzhu Hall, and a multi-functional complex that included an indoor swimming pool and volleyball courts while also landscaping the campus.

In February 1998, Chen retired, and Huang Qingjiang, who had previously taught history at Huwei Girls' High, became principal.

[28] When Tainan County Huwei Junior High School was established in 1946, a song for the sports meet was created by teacher Huang Chuanxin and composed by Liao Xingzhang.

Fang Lian, who hailed from Tongcheng County, Anhui Province, had studied law and politics at Waseda University and was well-versed in literature, phonetics and prosody.

[29] The song begins with the line “Vast sea and sky, the beautiful scenery of the treasure island,”[Note 4] and is set in D major with a 4/4 time signature.

The song spans a major tenth (from middle D to high F#) and consists of 49 classical Chinese characters, all rhyming with "ao.

In 2004, during the principal tenure of Huang Qingjiang, the guidance director at the time of the merger, a new bell tower, identical in appearance, was built with funding from parent advisor Xu Dasong and relocated between Jieshou Building and the library.

[36] The school was the first in the Republic of China to establish a TEAL (Technology Enabled Active Learning) creative interactive teaching classroom, in collaboration with National Chung Cheng University.

The former integrates English language and geography to deepen understanding of local customs, while the latter trains students in effective expression.

[39] The "Blue Shirt Tiger" is an alumni group that frequently returns to serve and organize camps for nearby junior high schools.

However, in July 2021, the non-governmental organization "Taiwan Youth Association for Democracy [zh]" raised concerns about administrative injustice and potential violations of student rights by the school's sports coaches.

[47] The armillary sphere, located in front of Jieshou Building, cost over a million New Taiwan Dollars[48] to construct and is also known as "Flying Dragon in the Sky.

[50] The original site of the armillary sphere was previously occupied by a statue of former Republic of China President Chiang Kai-shek, established during the tenure of Huwei Girls' High School Principal Shih Wan-chu [zh] in 1976.

[51] In early 2017, Huwei High School dismantled the statue, citing that it was severely damaged and posed safety hazards.

[52] This action coincided with the Tsai Ing-wen administration of the Democratic Progressive Party, which promoted the second de-Chiang Kai-shek movement, leading some to perceive it as a political intrusion into the campus; the school responded that it was merely coincidental.

[52][53] Two rows of Indian cherry trees planted in front of Jieshou Building are among the most popular campus attractions among students.

[61] Huwei High School also utilizes vacant classrooms to establish a K-book center, "Li Yan Xuan," with a total of 210 seats for student use.

[70][71] In 2015, the Humanistic Education Foundation [zh] held a press conference to criticize unreasonable school rules across Taiwan.
