This milestone marks the school as the first educational institution in the 𝐊𝐚𝐛𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐨 𝐈 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭 to obtain official land ownership documentation.

​The title was officially received from the Registry of Deeds for the Province of Apayao by the Schools Division Office (SDO) Apayao Legal Unit, led by 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐲. 𝐆𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐡𝐳𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐧 with the school head of 𝐊𝐚𝐛𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐨 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥, 𝐌𝐫. 𝐀𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨.

​The successful titling is the result of a concerted initiative by SDO Apayao, under the strategic leadership of SDS Angway and the technical guidance of the Legal Office, with steadfast support from 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐬 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐥 𝐏. 𝐄𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐨.

​Beyond the paperwork, this development serves as a critical safeguard for the school’s physical assets. By ensuring the legal protection of school properties, SDO Apayao strengthens the foundation for long-term, sustainable education delivery within the community.

​This accomplishment highlights the continuing commitment of the Legal Unit to secure land titles for more schools across Apayao, ensuring that educational institutions are built on legally protected grounds.

​The SDO extended its deepest gratitude to the partner agencies and stakeholders whose collaboration turned this vision into a reality:
