HOUSE BILL NO.

Introduced by Representatives Daphne A. Lagon and Sonny L. Lagon

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to separate the Consolacion National High School Laray Extension in
Barangay Nangka, Consolacion, Cebu from the Consolacion National High School and convert
it into a separate and independent national high schoo! to be known as the Nangka National
High School

This is in consonance with the constitutional mandate for the State to protect and
promote the rights of all citizens to quality education at all levels and take the necessary and
appropriate steps to make education accessible to all.

The Consolacion National High School ~ Laray Extension was established in 2015 to
cater to the growing number of high school students in the Municipality of Consolacion
particularly those coming from its surrounding barangays such as Nangka, Cansaga, Pitogo
and Lamac. As of this time, itis also catering to senior high school students.

Converting the Consolacion National High School ~ Laray Extension into a separate
and independent high school will definitely enhance its fiscal viability. As such, the school will
be empowered to improve its facilities to meet its growing student population and level up its
quality of instruction, This will surely redound to the benefit of the general population and
improve the accessibility of public education in general.

In view of these premises, the prompt approval of this measure is camestly sought and

recommended.
