BNHS: Home of Achievers; Pride of Ballesteros
Dear Students, Parents and Other Stakeholders;
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the school website. This website has been prepared and created with the hope that it will become an avenue for you to be provided with our school news and information, so you will become more familiar with our school, its policies and procedures.
Our school, the Ballesteros National High School is unique in the sense that it is the lone public secondary school in Ballesteros with the highest enrolment in the entire Schools Division of Cagayan.
Here in Ballesteros National High School, our faculty and staff work diligently to ensure that each learner is working to his or her maximum ability and that no learner will be left behind. We have a common goal to do what is best for our students.
As a learning community, we all know that our children shine and strive more if they see that the teachers and employees, parents and other stakeholders work harmoniously in the attainment of its goals and objectives. And as the School Principal, I will assure you that this will happen. We will walk in oneness for our learners. Sama-Sama, Para sa Bata, Para sa Bayan.
With your help, we can instill life-long values in our learners to work hard, exceed expectation and appreciate education. The new learning model does not need to be a barrier but instead will serve as an opportunity to change our mindset as it relates to the delivery of instruction and engaging students in learning.
I want students to live Mission with memories that will last a lifetime. We want our students to LOVE learning and LOVE coming to school even it is virtually or modular. Though we are directed to adapt our teaching and learning methods to address the conditions of the pandemic, our hearts for our students and families remains the same and we’ll do everything in our power to keep our students thriving.
Your journey to your secondary education provides you with wonderful opportunity to discover your unique talents and gifts. And one way to learn is through the variety of organizations, clubs and activities in our school. We have outstanding organizations and activities that will help you to learn about yourself and will develop friendships that will last for a lifetime.
