Nguyen Du High School traces its origins to Dong Xoai Semi-Public High School, established on November 13, 1995. At its inception, the school had just 12 staff members and over 130 students. In 2008, it was officially renamed Nguyen Du High School, marking a key milestone in its journey to becoming a respected institution in the local educational landscape.
