Jose Borromeo Legaspi Memorial National High School (JBLMNHS) is a public secondary school located in Barangay Aranas, Balete, Aklan, Philippines. It is recognized by the Department of Education. ==History== Recognizing the need for a secondary school in the barangay, Jean Oquendo Rodriguez who was then the Mayor of Balete, initiated a plan to create a school with Elna Perez Beltran and Abundio R. Guadalupe who worked on the papers for the approval of the proposal. Although there was already a private secondary school in the town, they considered the young people of Aranas who had to endure a long walk across town every morning and afternoon to attend school. The Board of Directors was then elected. Late Melgasbal Legaspi Oquendo, headed the Board of Directors together with others who gave financial support and worked together to create the school. In June, 1981 building work began on the school and a month later two rooms and an office made of light materials (coconut lumber, bamboos, nipa) were completed. The 94 pioneer students and a teacher spent a month teaching classes at the elementary school until the building was finished. Abundio Guadalupe, who was the Principal of Aranas Elementary School became the Assistant Principal of the school. The school's "Foundation Day" was 27 September 1981. The school was named ''Jose Borromeo Legaspi Memorial Barangay High School'' to honour the donor of the land on which the school stands, Jose Borromeo Legaspi, whose daughter, Atty. Lealtad R. Legaspi, often attends as a guest at school events such as Foundation and Graduation Days. The school was officially opened with a complete secondary course curriculum in 1983. However, a few months after its completion, the first rooms which were just made of light materials were destroyed by the typhoon Undang. A year later another two rooms were built which were connected to other three rooms in the building. Four years later, the Technology and Home Economics building was erected followed by a further building. Most of the school's students are residents of Barangay Aranas. Other students come from neighbouring villages and towns such as Cortes, Guanko, Oquendo, Morales in Balete, and Lalab in Batan. The school is now a National High School. 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「Jose Borromeo Legaspi Memorial National High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
