GTDLNHS HIstorical Backgrounds

Photo by: Jessica Chica

The rustic beginnings of Gen. Tiburcio de Leon National High School (GTDLNHS) can be traced back in 1969 when former Mayor Gerry Angeles initiated the creation of barrio high schools. Through his efforts, the VMHS – Gen. T. de Leon Annex was put-up at Gen. T. de Leon Elementary compound under the supervision of Valenzuela Municipal High School. The principal then was Josefina Avendaño-Lizaso.

There were three classrooms (Marcos Type Building) given to the high school, two were borrowed from the elementary and the barangay hall inside the elementary compound was used as a classroom. Mrs. Ana D. Cruz was the first chairperson designated to look over the high school.

From 1976 to 1984, Mrs. Rosario Tolentino- Santos was appointed as head teacher. It was in 1984 during the term of Mrs. Adalia Villasfer as head teacher when Valenzuela Municipal High School- Gen. T. de Leon Annex was transferred to a 1,533 sq. m. lot at Karen St., Tañada Subdivision, Gen. T. de Leon donated by the Filipino-Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Seven classrooms were built through the cooperation and support of the Parents-Teachers Association headed by its President Mr. Rodrigo Dimagiba.

When Mrs. Adalia Villasfer-Ramos resigned, Mrs. Bernardina Echaluce assumed office as OIC of the school. Mrs. Julita Cayanan took over in 1991 and the student population started to increase. Mr. Efren H. Tanfelix became the secondary school head of GTDLNHS in 1992. Under his leadership, three storey-building with 12 classrooms was donated by the National Government through the effort of Congressman Antonio M. Serapio.

On November 1, 1997, the school became fully independent by virtue of the republic act 6655, the Nationalization of Secondary Schools in the Philippines.

At present, the school is located at Mercado St., Gen. T. de Leon through the efforts of the school Principal, Mrs. Salvacion V. David and the city Mayor, Sherwin T. Gatchalian, the Head of the local school board. The present administration has ushered dramatic changes in physical development, staff improvement and pursuit of quality education.
