The establishment of a Science High School in Agusan del Sur
is an avenue for intensive learning in Science, Technology and Mathematics so as to develop the youth with knowledge, skills, attitudes and values in these fields of education. It aims to provide better educational opportunities to children with high proficiency in Science and Mathematics subjects; set up in an advanced institution of learning in basic education that will provide the students with modern facilities, thereby, improving the educational environment and helping develop human resources ready to be globally competitive. Inspired by the winnings of Special Science Students in the International Research contest in the USA and the very high NEAT performance of the Elementary pupils, all of whom belonged to the Special Science Classes of the central schools, during the School Year 2001-2002 the idea to establish a Science High School in the province was conceptualized. In 2002, the Tenth Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Agusan del Sur passed Resolution #32 authored by then Hon. Virgilio Zoilo approving the establishment of Agusan Sur Science High School. Resolution # 227 s of 2002 authored by Honorable Sangguniang Panlalawigan Member Regina P. Salazar approved a Deed of Donation donating a school site for the School. This also legitimized the School budget from SEF though the auspices of Governor Adolph Edward “Eddie Bong” Plaza.
It was legislated by virtue of R.A. 9537.
Furthermore, another historical milestone was set by the school as it held its very first grand alumni homecoming last December 27, 2015 here at the school grounds and later that day at Rosalinda’s Place, San Francisco. This event was successfully spearheaded by representatives from all of the batches. Most recently, with the K-12 Program’s implementation of Senior High School Curriculum, ASNSHS offered the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Strand and received from the PFSED (Physical Facilities and Schools Engineering Division) a two-unit typhoon resilient classroom on March 2016. This building had been occupied by the grade 11 students since June this year and from then on been utilized as a venue for programs and occasions being facilitated by the school. These changes and developments were made possible through the cunning of Mr. Danilo P. Jore and Mr. Almer O. Cale. In its ruby year moreover, ASNSHS Community is blessed with another proficient school administrator in the person of Mr. German C. Talagon who will help skillfully maneuver the school system in achieving its dreams and aspirations. Track Record Since the beginning , the School is holding the record of being a consistent winner in the different competitions in the different subject areas especially in Mathematics and Sciences.
