About this school
Hsinchu County American School (HCAS) is an international school in Zhubei City, Hsinchu County, founded in 2016. It belongs to an organisation that began with Ton Yen General Hospital in 1998 and later opened Korrnell Academy, a bilingual private school, in 2007. The school's founders set out to offer Western-style education in Taiwan so that families would not need to send children abroad to study.
HCAS follows a US curriculum from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12, organised into a kindergarten, the First Program and the Middle and Upper School. It is recognised by Taiwan's Ministry of Education and gained full accreditation from the ACS WASC commission in 2022. The school mission draws on the Dalton Plan, and support includes student support services, college and career counselling, and an information technology and library programme.
Student life features a house system, a student council, labs and extracurricular clubs, sports and academic teams, and community events organised with parents.
