Science High School

PAASCU Level II Re-Accredited Program

The curriculum aims to produce completers who are science, technology, work, and values-oriented citizens; capable of meeting the challenges of the Senior High School and beyond; and are imbued with values through Filipino cultural heritage.

Apart from the enriched Science and Mathematics subjects, the curriculum is even more strengthened by the integration of AutoCAD, Robotics and Coding Education, and the use of ARALinks.
