Workman its first principal. Subsequently, Americans Henry Wise and Joseph Coconower succeeded Workman as the school's principal. In 1915, the school had its first Filipino principal, Mariano Mondeniedo. The school's emphasis was on vocational agriculture for boys and domestic science for girls. In 1918, the name of the school was changed to ''Indang Farming School''. As enrollment increased, the school site was expanded through the land donations of the citizens of Indang, including Francisco Ocampo and Don Severino de las Alas, ''Secretary of Interior'' during the Aguinaldo cabinet. In 1927, the school was renamed ''Indang Rural High School'', during the incumbency of principal Simeon Madlangsakay. It first offered a secondary courses in vocational agriculture in 1923 and Home Economics in 1927. In recognition of the generosity of Don Severino de las Alas to the community, the province of Cavite and the nation, the name of the institution was changed to Don Severino National Agricultural School in 1958 by a congressional action. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cavite State University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
