  • History & Memorable Moments[1]
    • The first secondary school in the province of Rizal known as the Pasig Secondary School was formally established on October 1, 1902 during the incumbency of Governor Ambrosio Flores with an enrolment of 28 pupils. The students came from five neighboring towns including Pasig proper. The enrollment increased to 45 pupils in November, 65 in December and 88 in January and February in 1903, all intermediate pupils. The pupils were taught in a room of a rented building, 30 meters by 30 meters. The cost of the rent was $15, local currency, the amount paid from the provincial fund.
    • At the beginning, the Provincial Board was against the establishment of a provincial school in Pasig. Pasig is near Manila. The provincial aid therefore was very limited. The increase in financial support by the provincial government was subject to the condition that the pupils from adjoining towns would prefer attending classes in the provincial school rather than seeking enrolment in Manila.
    • Immediately after the military post occupied by American soldiers was vacated, it was turned over to the provincial government for the use of the Pasig Secondary School in November 1903. The building, although quite spacious, was old and dilapidated with a badly damaged roof. The teachers assigned to this school were all Americans, namely, Messrs. Laughlin, Click and Scruton. The Superintendent of Schools was Mr. Charles Rummel.
    • The military post was vacated when a new building was constructed sometime in 1902 during the administration of Governor Jose Tupas. The basement of the building was used as a woodworking shop. This was the time when a first year class was organized.
    • Since 1905 steps had been made to acquire a spacious site for this secondary school. It was however only in 1913-1914 when a site made of ten lots containing 63,707.41 square meters was acquired through expropriation proceedings from several landowners. The estimated value of the site was P38,540. It was surveyed on November 8, 1928 and registered on October 27, 1931 under Certificate of Title No. 4553. Soon, after the acquisition of the site, a modern, reinforced concrete and modified Standard Plan No. 20 school building was constructed. This was in 1914 during the tenure of Governor Mariano Melendres. The building was completed and occupied in 1915.
