Cavite National High School
Cavite National High School (Filipino: Pambansang Mataas na Paaralan ng Cavite) formerly known as Cavite High School (Filipino: Mataas na Paaralan ng Cavite) is a Secondary school located at the City of Cavite in the Philippines. It was established on June 19, 1902, and it is the first and oldest national secondary school in the Philippines. It is also recognized as a Calabarzon historical site by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines.
On January 21, 1901, Act No. 74 of the Philippine Commission called for the organization of Public Schools in the Philippines. The Provincial Board, then authorized by Act No. 372 were to establish secondary schools. The first campus was located at the Isthmus of Rosario, in the town of San Roque where Garita Elementary School now stands. Hon. Mariano Trias, then Governor of Cavite, suggested that a High School be established in Cavite, San Roque or Caridad.
The school was established on June 19, 1902, with 25 students mostly from the towns of Cavite, San Roque and Caridad. However, classes could not start because of cholera, the buildings in bad condition, there were no desks, and building was unsanitary because it was used as a pig pen. Then Principal Sydney K. Michelle and Mr. Hammond H. Buck raised 100 pesos for the needed repairs. On July 1, 1902, the school became operational with 30 students. On September 1, it became 61 and in November, it became 80.
In 1903, Cavite High School transferred to an old but spacious disputed government land where a Spanish hospital stands. Student population continued to increase and during the same year, a debating society was organized among the advanced students. Also, in 1904 and in 1905 respectively, a baseball team and a track and field team was established. The Supreme Court however ordered that the land be returned to the Catholic Church. Again, the school had to relocate at P. Gomez st. where the Spanish Provincial Governor used to reside. In 1908, the High School saw its first five graduates, four males and one female. In 1928, the school had to move to Caridad Preparatory before transferring to its present lot, a sprawling 6-hectare lot located donated by Caridad Estate of Cavite, Inc. through Mr. Hammond Buck who was engaged in the Bureau of Education prior to being engaged in real estate.
The 2-2 Plan, the new curriculum, was implemented in 1957 under the then Principal Jose T. Bernal. Back then, Junior and Senior High School students were given the choice whether they preferred vocational, college preparatory or an elective curriculum.
Junior students were often sent to Cavite Naval Operating Base (now Cavite Naval Base) for their on-the-job training. They could choose mechanical repairs, machinery operations, practical electricity, welding, sheetmetal, shipfitter, pipefitter or foundry. Boys underwent woodworking courses which were done in the school shop while girls underwent hair science and dressmaking and design courses in the Home Economics Laboratory.
Republic Act No. 3694 converted Cavite High School into Cavite National High School as approved by President Diosdado Macapagal on June 22, 1963.
In 2002, the school celebrated its 100th anniversary. Among the activities done to celebrate this occasion was an award ceremony by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to the Top 100 Alumni with the Gawad Gintong Kalabaw award. Those who were present in the ceremony were the President, Education Secretary Raul Roco, Cavite Governor Erineo Maliksi and Representative Plaridel Abaya of the 1st District of Cavite at the Heroes Hall. Among the alumni awarded included Maria Rizalina Bautista Poblete of Batch 1926 and Honorato Vega of Batch 1931, two of the oldest alumni of Cavite National High School, engineer Edward R. Caro, and Elmer Abueg, the President's professor at Ateneo de Manila University.
