House BILLNo. 1581

Introduced by Hon, Frederick F. Abueg

This bill aims to provide the youth of Barangay Taburi in the Municipality of Rizal,
Province of Palawan, access to quality secondary education by converting the Candawaga
National High School ~ Taburi Extension into a separate and distinct national high school
from the Candawaga National High School, to be known as TABURI NATIONAL HIGH
SCHOOL.

‘The Candawaga National High School ~ Taburi Extension was established on June
2011. At present, Taburi Extension obtains its funding for operations from its mother school,
the Candawaga National High School. The continuous increase in the number of enrollees of
Taburi Extension shows that students recognize the tremendous value of education in shaping
the future and alleviating poverty. Moreover, in order for the school to function éffectively*
and efficiently, a regular source of funds every school year must be sufficient. It can only be
realized by making it a distinct institution and funding therefor included in the annual
General Appropriations Act. Furthermore, the separation and conversion into a national high
school will improve the administration of both Taburi Extension and Candawaga National
High School in terms of addressing the needs of its students.

The Taburi Extension High School was issued permit to operate by the Regional
Director of Region IV-B, Department of Education, pursuant to the request of local
government officials of Rizal, Palawan, after compliance with necessary requirements
therefor.

This bill is recommended for approval, consistent with Article XIV Section One of
the 1987 Constitution which mandates that, “the State shall protect and promote the right of
all citizens to quality education at all levels, and shall take appropriate steps to make such
education accessible to all.”

In accordance with the State’s policy of providing quality education for its citizens,
the approval of this bill is earnestly recommended st
