HOUSE BILL NO. 3259

Introduced by Representative ALLEN JESSE C. MANGAOANG

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to separate the Naneng National High School- Mosimos Extension in
Barangay Dupag, City of Tabuk, Province of Kalinga from its mother school the Naneng
National High School and convert it into a separate and independent national high school to be
known as the Dupag National High School

The Naneng National High School - Mosimos Extension was opened in 2011 to cater
to 53 incoming high school freshmen from Barangay Dupag who cannot afford to attend the
high school located six kilometers away from their Barangay. At present the extension school
is offering grades 7 to 10 with 127 students coming from Barangay Dupag and its nearby
barangays. The school is currently manned by eight teachers coming from the mother school
and from the Local School Board. Due to the increase of population of school age children
from among the feeder schools, there is an indication that student enrollees will grow and
double in the coming years.

With the conversion of the Mosimos Extension into an independent school, the
capability of the said school as catalyst of change will be boosted. As secondary education
‘becomes less costly in this part of the country, more and more of our people may adopt
secondary education as an effective vehicle for development. It is a generally accepted fact that
better accessibility to quality education will not only improve the economic life of the people
but even their social and political conditions. It is projected that the school operating
independently from the mother school will serve as an effective tool in promoting the thrust on
“Quality Education for All”. As the government is brought closer to the people in this part of
the archipelago, they are also drawn further away from the dangerous clutches of insurgency,
juvenile delinquency, crimes, ignorance and poverty. With a more enlightened citizenry, the
hope for a more peaceful and prosperous community becomes more of a reality than a dream
to our people in Barangay Dupag and its nearby barangays.

In view of the foregoing, passage of this bill is earnestly sought.
