New Taipei Municipal Zhuwei High School (ZWHS; Chinese: 新北市立竹圍高級中學) is a combined junior and senior high school located in Tamsui District, New Taipei City, Taiwan. It was founded in 1996. As of 2014 the principal was ZONG-MIN, Wu.
School introduction[]
The campus of Zhuwei High School leans towards the Datun Mountain Range and looks out on the Tamsui River and Guanyin Mountain. Beautiful views surround a campus of 4.6 hectares, and this ideal environment is serviced by a full-range of facilities. As a suburb of the Taipei metropolitan area, the convenient MRT system has brought a fast expansion in the population of Zhuwei. Originally, there was only one elementary school in the area and graduates had to travel all the way to the town center in busy traffic to attend secondary schools.
The community was in dire need of a secondary school, and petitions were launched to address this need. To answer the needs of the community and ensure balanced development of education, Taipei County Government approved a plan to build a fourth junior high school, named Taipei County Municipal Zhuwei High School, in the Tamsui area on October 26, 1989. On August 1, 2012, the School was reorganized into a high school and named the New Taipei City Zhuwei Senior High School. This upgrade established the school as the 15th complete secondary school in New Taipei City and the only public school in the Tamsui area. In the same year, the school enrolled its first batch of high school freshmen (10th graders), and Mr. Wu Chong Min was appointed the first principal of this newly upgraded secondary school.
