Nereo R. Joaquin National High School

NRJNHS is located at St. Rose Village II, Casile, Biñan City, Laguna. It serves the youth of Malaban, Casile, San Antonio and other nearby barangays.

The Nereo R. Joaquin National High School is a timely response to a most pressing need in Biñan, Laguna. Before its creation there was only one national high school in the municipality, over and above a Technical Education Skills Development Authority (TESDA) supervised school. After considering Biñan’s demographics and economic profile, Representative Uliran T. Joaquin thought of establishing a new high school at the heart of a highly-populous barangay. Following her assumption into office in 1998 Representative

diligently steered the passage of a bill creating a new high school in Malaban, Biñan.

The sixth national high school in the First District of Laguna, the Nereo R. Joaquin National High School is a creation of law. Its enabling act, Republic Act 8933, which was principally authored by Representative Uliran T. Joaquin, was passed by the House of Representative on February 16, 2000 and by the Senate on May 22, 2000.

President Joseph Estrada formally signed it into law on August 22, 2000.

The new legislated school started accepting enrollees in May 2002, after Representative Joaquin, caused the allocation of P2.78 million in the General Appropriations Act 2002 for the school’s personal services. The first batch of enrollees temporarily held classes at four borrowed classrooms of Malaban Elementary School. Six teachers and one officer-in-charge, Mrs. Emelita T. Esguerra initially served as the faculty of instruction.The following year, Representative Joaquin earmarked a considerable portion of her funds for the construction of nine classroom three-storey building. Similarly the Municipal Government of Biñan under the leadership of Mayor Hermis “Boy” Perez committed to construct another six classroom three storey building. In August of 2003, the cornerstone for the school’s new buildings was dropped in a lot donated by the owners of Roseville Subdivision. During the same date the key officers of the Department of Education (DepEd), Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), parents association, joined the officialdom of the Municipality of Biñan and Congresswoman Uliran Joaquin in unveiling a school master plan that envisions a U-shaped school plan.

Now on its tenth year, Nereo R. Joaquin National High School offers some one thousand and four hundred eighty seven indigent students of Malaban, Casile, San Antonio and other nearby barangays access to free secondary education. The school now prides itself of having a well-stocked library which was donated by SM Foundation, a well equipped computer laboratory and a nearly completed school plant. With a teaching force of computer laboratory and a principal, the school hopes to serve well as a most competent arm of the Department of Education in delivering quality education which is always relevant to the demands of the current century.
