The barrio council found a school found a school site situated in "Balicatan" rice fields and bought 1,600 sq.m. lot for Php7,800.00.
While waiting for the request of a two-room prefab building, two Grade I classes were housed at rented rooms. It had a combined enrollment of 100 pupils.
In 1968, the two-room prefab building was followed by seven-room Marcos Type Building and other school facilities. The site was also enclosed with the concrete fence.
