Seventeenth Congress
Second Regular Session

HOUSE BILL No._'?724

Introduced by Representative Peter John D. Calderon

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to separate the Bulak National High School - Tubod-
Dugoan Extension located in Barangay Tubod-Dugoan, Dumanjug, Cebu from
Bulak National High School and convert it into an independent national high
school, to be known as the Tubod-Dugoan (Dumanjug) National High School.

The existing Bulak National High School - Tubod-Dugoan Extension
started its operation on January 1, 1996 and has been operating as an extension
school of Bulak National High School for more than twenty-two years now.

‘The Bulak National High School - Tubod-Dugoan Extension is providing
education to junior and senior high school students who are residents of
Barangay Tubod-Dugoan and the adjacent barangays of Pangpang, Basak,
Masa, Dugoan and Kanghalo.

Considering that the Bulak National High School - Tubod-Dugoan
Extension has been in existence for more than two decades and is highly
capable of serving the needs of junior and senior high school students, it is
about time that the school be separated from its mother school, the Bulak
National High School.

Clearly, the Tubod-Dugoan National High School must be given priority
and be separated from its mother school to be an independent school.

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