EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Bill seeks the separation of Silae National High School — St. Peter
Annex (SNHS-St. Peter Annex) from Silae National High School and the
conversion of the said Annex into an independent national high school
recognized as St. Peter National High School, a separate and distinct entity in
the National Budget.

The SNHS-St. Peter Annex, as an extension of Silae National High
School, has been in existence and operation for nine (9) school years (SYs)
now. The present student population is rapidly increasing every year as the
school records shows, hence the need for more teachers and full time
administrator to closely oversee the school’s programs and activities.

Silae National High School cannot accommodate all that is necessary
through its budget coming from the National Government. Even with the
assistance from the Local Government, personnel and finances are still
inadequate to accommodate the needs of the said annex. And this being situated
in a mountainous municipality the need to become an independent national high
school is pressing. Hence, the separation and conversion of the Silae National
High School — St. Peter Annex is sought.

The separation and conversion of Silae National High School — St. Peter
Annex will ensure convenience, opportunity and conducive environment to the
youth of Barangay St. Peter and other nearby barangays to a proper and quality
education.
