There were six Grade 9 students from Banquerohan National High School (BNHS) who successfully passed the Philippine Educational Placement Test (PEPT) on November 2019.

In a Facebook post in one of group chats of BNHS, Ms, Ma. Victoria Susana A. Calacday, school guidance counselor-designate, announced that there were a total of six Grade 9 passers--two came from Tennyson, two from Marlowe, one from Malory, and one from Shakespeare.

PEPT is under the Accreditation and Equivalency Program (Executive Order No. 733, s. 1981) tasked for retrieving out-of-school youth (OSY) and placing them in the formal school system if they so desire, and for validating and accrediting knowledge and skills in academic areas gained through informal and non-formal means for re-entry into formal school, job promotion, entry to job training, for employment and self-fulfillment.
