Minglanilla National Science High School - History

History

The school was founded in 1996, with Mrs. Carmencita Denampo as Supervisor for both the high school and elementary department, and was named the Minglanilla Science and Technology School. Still under Mrs. Denampo's reign, it was renamed Minglanilla School of the Future. In 1998, when Mrs. Denampo was promoted, Mrs. Rosita Sanico took over, and it was in her time that the high school and elementary department were separated. It was named the Minglanilla National Science High School. In 2000 Mrs. Leonida T. Lofranco took office until she moved to the Division office.

From an enrollment of 31 high school students in 1996, the MNSHS now has a student population of 265; from a one-section school, the MNSHS now has two for each year level; from a beginning of one-classroom setting within the premises of the Minglanilla Central School, the MNSHS now has nine classrooms, one computer laboratory, and a campus; from a couple of dedicated teachers, the MNSHS now has a teaching staff of 10 faculty members and a principal.

The two classrooms were donated by Rubber World through Cebu Chinese Chambers and Industry in 2003. It is now the Faculty Room, Principal Office and Uranium section. In 2004 Mrs. Leonida T. Lofranco was promoted as science supervisor hence Ms. Evangelina C. Largo took charge of the administration as school caretaker. Then in 1996, Mrs. Eutiquia Alday took over the administration. In 2005, other rooms were built when President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, with the helps of DPWH, donated the classrooms. In 2006, the PTA finished the cementing of the badminton court, completed the stage and campus fencing, and added computers and laboratory equipment.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of American politics is littered with bodies of people who took so pure a position that they had no clout at all.
    Ben C. Bradlee (b. 1921)

    They are a sort of post-house,where the Fates
    Change horses, making history change its tune,
    Then spur away o’er empires and o’er states,
    Leaving at last not much besides chronology,
    Excepting the post-obits of theology.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Throughout the history of commercial life nobody has ever quite liked the commission man. His function is too vague, his presence always seems one too many, his profit looks too easy, and even when you admit that he has a necessary function, you feel that this function is, as it were, a personification of something that in an ethical society would not need to exist. If people could deal with one another honestly, they would not need agents.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
