Profile of the School and Community
A.
Community Profile
In 1972, BALIBAGO was declared a barangay.
It is an agricultural land planted with rice and other kinds of
vegetables and fruit trees.
The place has passed across a bridge, the bridge of agriculture and
became a commercial center that led to the gradual improvement of the
barrio folks.
For so many years, after the conquest of the Spaniards, Balibago as one
of the Barangays of Santa Rosa City, nobody could tell how it had its
history. The lack of data
compelled the authorities to gather information from very responsible
authorities.
Barangay Balibago is in the Southern part of Santa Rosa, 2.5 km. from the
town proper. The Barangay
has concrete and good roads direct to Santo Domingo as far as Tagaytay.
It has a very fertile soil for rice plantation and good water flow for
irrigation that help the farmers in their basic needs.
The construction and establishments of a great number of factories in
Balibago and nearby barangays helped in the continuous progress of the
barangay.
Balibago started from a very humble beginning.
IV.
HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL
One of the major concerns of
the State is to provide basic education to the youth.
But education among these young people is a problem especially in
far-flung barangays due to poor means of transportation. This challenged
Dr. Pedro Orata, the father of Barangay High Schools on how to help the
youth on the lower strata avail this basic formal education.
Thus,
Barangay High Schools were
established
in many barangays to bring education within the reach of these poor and
less fortunate people and to answer the plight of the father.
In consonance with the plight, Balibago National High School was
conceived and was established on June 30, 1970.
Miss Jacinto Caro and Mrs. Lolita Zaño were instrumental in the
putting up of this institution, the first Barangay High School in Santa
Rosa. It started with only
one (1) section and the tuition fees of students supported the salaries
of teachers and other miscellaneous expenses.
Fortunately, one of the
first graduates, the Salutatorian of the First Commencement Exercise
joined in the Teaching Force
of the school and has retired on her 65th year last August 6, 2006.
The said
Barangay High School was
squatting in the Elementary Compound of Balibago Elementary School using
the classrooms and facilities of the Elementary.
Until finally, in June 1982, a Head Teacher item was opened and
Mrs. Loreta Enriquez Capisanan, from the District of
Cabuyao was appointed Head Teacher of Balibago
Barangay High School.
Through her effort, with the untiring support of the Barangay Council,
headed by the very energetic Barangay Chairman Bienvenido M. Tan,
President Marcos' appointee, the school
became an independent/separate school.
It was no longer under the leadership of the Elementary School
Principal.
The school site, which is 1,750 sq. m., is so small for a high school so
the Principal, together with the Barangay Captain and the P.T.A.
President rallied again to Miss Pura Limaco for an additional site.
Fortunately, one (1) hectare of land was generously given/donated.
But unfortunately, after a week, the Principal was transferred to
Aplaya National High School of the same town, leaving all her projects
unattended. As a result, the
heiress of the donor retrieved the additional school site.
On 2009, an additional lot of 2,000
sq. m, and a 4-storey with 24-classroom building was purchased by
the Honorable Mayor Arlene Arcillas Nazareno for the expansion of
Balibago Integrated High School.
Balibago Integrated High
School (formerly Balibago National High School) is in its 51st year of existence and is doing well in both academic and
extra-curricular aspects. It has a BIHS Extension at Dita, Santa Rosa City headed by Mrs. Josephine M. Basaca, Head Teacher III.
Balibago Integrated High
School in Santa Rosa City is a performing school.
The National Achievement Test Result proved that the school is on
the right tract.
Ikaw ang patnubay
Sa pagtahak sa landas ng buhay
Liwanag kang gumagabay
Sa kabataa’y umaakay.
Refrain:
Dakila ang iyong layunin
Pagpanday ng dunong namin
Kailanma’y di lilimutin
Lagi ka sa puso’t damdamin.
Koro I:
Alma Mater kong minamahal.
Biyaya ka ng Maykapal
Kaagapay ng bayang ginigiliw
Sa pag-abot ng mithiin.
Koro II:
BALNAHIS kong minamahal
Kalugdan ka ng Maykapal
Lagi kang ipagbubunyi
Ngayon at kailanman.
(Ulitin ang Refrain, Koro,
& II)
Koda:
Lagi kang ipagbubunyi
Ngayon at magpakailanman.
