HOUSE BILL No, 9059

Introduced by HON. RONALD M. COSALAN

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Bokod National High School-Daklan Extension is a public general
secondary school established for more than a decade already catering to an
increasing, number of enrollees from the municipality of Bokod and its neighbors.

With the continuing growing population of the high school as a result of
absorbing and accommodating a number of displaced students from the Benguet
State University-Bokod Campus (formerly BSAT) secondary department which was
phased out, the implementation of K-12 curriculum in the school as well as the
increase of elementary graduates from neighboring towns and municipalities, the
conversion of Bokod National High School-Daklan Extension to Daklan National
High School essential to provide conducive and learning environment to our
students. The Daklan Extension is more or less 30 kilometers from the main school
in Pito, Bokod.

Conversion becomes urgent because of the institutional development of the
school and the services offered to its students. It offers a practical step towards
resolving several physical, financial and staff management issues such as but not
limited to distance with the main school, sudden increase in enrollment and school
site,

Hence, the conversion of Bokod National High School-Daklan Extension to
Daklan National High School is necessary and urgent. Support for this bill is
earnestly sought.
