• History & Memorable Moments

The Philippine Science High School was officially established by Republic Act 3661 which was signed into law in 1963 by President Diosdado Macapagal. This charter mandates the PSHS “to offer on a free scholarship basis a secondary course with emphasis on subjects pertaining to service with the end in view of preparing its students for a science career." The school started operations in 1964. National Scientist Dr. Gregorio Velasquez led the PSHS through its first three years of infancy. The campus was located at GSIS-owned property along the Quezon Memorial Circle. In 1970, the PSHS started building on a 75,000 square metre lot along Agham Road in Diliman. By the end of the eighties, the first regional campuses were built, starting with the Mindanao Campus (now Southern Mindanao Campus), located in Davao City, in 1988. ^[1]

The PSHS System Law (R.A. 8496, signed by President Fidel V. Ramos in 1997) established the PSHS System and unified all the existing campuses into a single system of governance and management. Thus, the PSHS continues fulfilling its mandate “to offer, on a free scholarship basis, a secondary course with special emphasis on subjects pertaining to the sciences, with the end view of preparing its students for a science career”. ^[1]
