After decades of being an annex school of Doña Carmen Denia National High School,[8] the school finally operated on its own and paved the way for significant developments.[9]

History[edit]

Establishment[edit]

In 1967, the school was created with the name Piedad Barangay High School. The school was known to have preserving, dedicated, committed, and self-disciplined students and teachers that encouraged the community and its neighboring areas to make it their choice of preference for their children's education.

In the school year from 1979 to 1980, the school experienced much growth and development. The higher authorities of DECS[10] decided to send a secondary school head as the administrator. At that time, the school management was implemented.

Educational and political leaders in a conference decided to look for a new school site in addition to the already crowded Piedad Barangay High School.[9]

Political support[edit]

On 5 March 1982, Don Luis D. Denia donated a portion of his land located at the Poblacion of Toril, Davao City. By this time, there were two campuses occupied by Piedad Barangay High School:

Modification[edit]

On 10 September 1982, the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) of Piedad Barangay High School approved a Resolution No. 21, series of 1982, requesting that the school's name must be changed to Doña Carmen Denia City High School[13] due to some important justifications.

Moreover, the PTA Resolution No. 21 was unanimously approved by the 24 Board of Directors who were present at that time. The first endorsement to the Sangguniang Panglungsod was on 19 February 1983, recommending the approval of the request upon.

Additional teachers were assigned to teaching, including charity teachers, but were eventually absorbed as permanent teachers. On 11 November 1987, the change of name from Piedad Barangay High School was approved under the City Council Resolution No. 601 during the 1987-1988 school year. The Republic Act No. 6746 approved the change of the school name by Congress on August 11, 1989.

The late Honorable Congressman Elias B. Lopez[14] was responsible for all the legal works in the acquisition and development of the school site together with political and educational leaders in the community.

The Fourth Year Curriculum with a total of 668 students with 13 sections moved to the new school site on November 19, 1985, which partly decongested[15] the old campus. The two secondary schools were managed by one school administrator.[9]

Separation[edit]

It was then followed by a conference called by the late Honorable Congressman Elias B. Lopez where a decision was made to separate the operation, management, and administration of the two schools. The old Piedad Barangay High School must be renamed since it is located at the Barangay of Crossing Bayabas.[16]

Crossing Bayabas Barangay Council[17] unanimously agreed to the proposal to change the name. The Republic Act No. 8388[2][18] approved on 22 November 1997, legalized the separation of the two schools and changed the name from Piedad Barangay High School to Crossing Bayabas National High School. The 1993-1994 school year was the turning point of the proposed separation of the two secondary schools.

Leadership[edit]

Mrs. Lily D. Tongcaling[edit]

When she assumed the school leadership in 1997, the school had not more than 20 wooden classrooms were constructed to address the growing number of students. Several teachers were also hired to cater the increasing school population.

During her active and dynamic leadership, the school opened opportunities to those working youth who wish to pursue their secondary education by offering the Sunday High School Program.[19][20][21] Several developments have taken place during her administration. The two-storey wooden structure was demolished and replaced with a concrete three-storey classroom building. The installations of Closed-circuit Television (CCTV) cameras and the school's paging system have significantly contributed to the improvements of school's service to its clients. Several teachers were also hired during her leadership.

He strengthened the implementation of the Solid Waste Management Act[22][23] (Republic Act No. 9003).

This is in preparation for the school's TechVoc[24] offering when the K to 12 Senior High School Curriculum will be implemented. New constructions were also done during his leadership; new covered court was built and the canteen was renovated.
