‘The Southern Bataraza National High School ~ Buliluyan Annex presently obtains its
funding for operations from its mother school, the Southern Bataraza National High School.
The steady enrollment growth of Southern Bataraza National High School ~ Buliluyan Annex
shows that students recognize the tremendous value of education in shaping the fature and
alleviating poverty, Moreover, in order for the school to function effectively and efficiently, a
regular source of funds every school year must be sufficient. It can only be realized by
making it a distinct institution and funding therefor included in the annual General
Appropriations Act. Furthermore, the separation and conversion into a national high school
will improve the administration of both Buliluyan Annex and Southern Bataraza National
High School in terms of addressing the needs of its students.
