SCHOOL
A Brief History of Guindaruhan National High School
The Guindaruhan National High School (formerly Guindaruhan Barangay High School) is the second Public Secondary School which was established in 1982 in the Municipality of Minglanilla. The first High School is Camp 7 National High School through the effort of the following persons: Hon. Eduardo R. Gullas, Congressman of the first district of Cebu, Hon. Eduardo Ma. C. Selma, the Municipal Mayor and Hon. Macario Saavedra, the Barangay Captain who is concerned with the youth's welfare in the barangay and neighboring barangays to have a Public Secondary School in the far-flung barangay like Guindaruhan. The first year class was housed inside the premises of Guindaruhan Elementary School in Taboan, with the administration and supervision of the Elementary School Head Mrs. Crispina Adlawan.
There was a proposed school site for the incoming High School, but at hand it was firstly sheltered in elementary school for an experimental purpose.
There were 17 males and 26 females enrolled with a total of 43 students at that time with one teacher Ms. Lourdes Cabatuan. She was having a house to house campaign, encouraging parents who cannot afford to send their children to private schools in the town, after graduating grade six, to enroll them in new founded high school within the community. She handled all the subjects in that school year and whose salary was funded by the municipal local government and voluntary contribution from the PTA with the leadership of Jaime Baclaan, the PTA President.
Some parents had realized that poverty is not a hindrance to achieve education and it is really needed for the future of their children, so enrollment has increased as well as another year levels which have been completed starting with first year up to fourth year levels.
The mentors who took part in the completion from first year to fourth year levels of Guindaruhan National High School were the following: Mrs. Henrisa S. Fernandez, SY 1983-1984; Mrs. Glenna C. Plarisan, SY 1984-1985; and Mrs. Delia D. Saavedra, SY 1985-1986.
In the school year 1985-1986, the school with the endeavors of the newly elected Barangay Captain Andres A. Mañacap, the Barangay council and Parents Teachers Association had transferred their students - bringing their own chairs to the prepared school site located at the Proper Guindaruhan which is five kilometers away from the National Road. The new building had only two rooms wherein every room had a division to be shared by first year and second year and another by third year and fourth year. It was the same strategy as what the elementary school head had practiced.
The First Secondary High School graduation was held in elementary school, together with the elementary graduates on April 4, 1986. Out of 43 students enrolled in SY 1982-1983, only 19 were survived, 13 males and 6 females, and each of them was able to receive a high school diploma. The Guindaruhan National High School was already on its 24th year in service to the community last school year 2010-2011.
In August 2005, upon reshuffling of each school head within Cebu Province Division, Mr. Andres M. Nuñez who came from the City of Naga, (formerly Municipality of Naga) has led the school into meaningful and interactive administration. Besides, in the school year 2011-2012, Dr. Ermetes F. Adolfo, Jr. who came from Minglanilla National Science High School has been given a DESIGNATION ORDER to administratively run a school and has been designated effective last March 18, 2011 as School Head of Guindaruhan National High School by the Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Arden D. Monisit of Cebu Province Division to further administrate the affairs of said learning institution.
This school year 2011-2012, there are 483 students mentored by the 12 nationally funded teachers, including 1 locally funded teacher from the Provincial School Board, 1 locally funded teacher from the Municipal School Board and 1 locally funded teacher from the NGO.
Since the redeployment/transfer of 4 regular teachers to any public school in the Municipality of Minglanilla, and the school is still awaiting its replacement teachers to take over, Guindaruhan National High School is badly in need of additional teachers as mentors to handle and facilitate the implementation of the Department Program with the desire to attain the vision for a globally competitive institution through the Quality Basic Education.
Through the efforts of the School Head and the teaching and non-teaching personnel, there is a strengthened linkage as well as partnership of the nearby stakeholder; thus "the JLR Construction and Aggregates Incorporated" has adopted the school Guindaruhan National High School for several years now.
