SECOND REGULAR SESSION

HOUSE BILE NO. 9749

Introduced by Representative MANUEL S. AGYAO

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to separate the Pasil National High School-Balatoc Annex in Sitio Batong
Buhay, Barangay Balatoc, Municipality of Pasil, Province of Kalinga from the Pasil National High
School and become an independent national high school to be known as the Batong Buhay National
High School

Balatoc Annex was opened as an extension class of the Pasil National High School in the
year 2002 to cater to high school students coming from Sitio Batong Buhay, main Barangay of
Balatoc and the nearby Barangay of Colayo, both in the western part of Pasil. The Sitio of Batong
Buhay, where the annex is located, is a mining center in the Municipality of Pasil. It is where the
defunct Batong Buhay Gold Mines was located. A lot of small scale miners from the nearby
Province of Abra and other municipalities in Kalinga have come to settle in Batong Buhay for
greener pastureshence over the years the student populace of the Annex school has grown
considerably in number. The students are mixtures of tribes brought about by the children of
migrant small scale miners from nearby provinces and municipalities. The school has three existing
elementary schools as main feeders, namely, the Batong Buhay Elementary School, Balatoc
Elementary Schoo! and the Colayo Elementary School. Thus, it is high time that it be separated
from the mother school and become an independent national high school. As an independent school,
the Batong Buhay National High School shall have wider opportunities to chart its own course
effectively and efficiently towards the development of quality secondary education in Western Pasil

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