Alongside the mandate of the K+12 Program to further strengthen secondary education

With the proposed separation and conversion, Conner Central National High School-lli
Annexwill be in a better position to craft its programs and interventions to address the
unique needs of the communities it serves, at the same time ensure that its students are
provided the full support in terms of teaching personnel, facilities and equipments to
harness their full potential in their chosen fields of specialization.
