RA11794: AN ACT SEPARATING THE DULOP NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL - BAG-ONG VALENCIA EXTENSION IN BARANGAY BAG-ONG VALENCIA, MUNICIPALITY OF DUMINAG, PROVINCE OF ZAMBOANGA DEL SUR FROM THE DULOP NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL, CONVERTING IT INTO AN INDEPENDENT NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL
Republic Act No. 11794 establishes the Bag-ong Valencia Agricultural National High School as an independent institution, separating it from the Dulop National High School - Bag-ong Valencia Extension in Zamboanga del Sur. This legislation is crucial for the residents of Barangay Bag-ong Valencia and its vicinity as it provides a specialized educational pathway with an agricultural focus, directly benefiting students interested in this sector. The creation of an independent agricultural high school can lead to the development of tailored curricula and practical training, preparing students for careers in agriculture and contributing to local economic development.
The Act ensures the operational continuity of the Bag-ong Valencia Agricultural National High School by transferring all personnel, assets, liabilities, and records from the former annex and allocating initial funding from its previous appropriation, with future funding secured through the annual General Appropriations Act. This financial and administrative independence is vital for the new school to flourish, offering enhanced educational opportunities and specialized training to its students and fostering agricultural development within the province. The Secretary of Education is also directed to issue the necessary implementing rules and regulations for the effective execution of this Act.
