Sorsogon National High School, in Sorsogon City, Philippines, was established in 1903. It was formerly known as Sorsogon Provincial High School.[1] The cornerstone was laid by Alice Roosevelt on 1905 during her visit with Howard Taft.
There was a time that students on the said school would come from different parts of the provinces.[2]
The school's historical main building was burned down twice: once during Japanese occupation, in 1941, and again in a devastating fire in February 2014.[1][3] The main building has been rebuilt while maintaining its original and historic facade. Mr. Michael M. Uy, Education Program Supervisor (EPS), currently sits as the Officer - In - Charge of the Office of the School Principal since February, 2021. As of 2014[update], 5,312 students are enrolled.[citation needed] A 2015 proposal to rename the school in honor of Filipino politician Salvador Escudero III met with strong opposition from alumni and other stakeholders.[4][5]
Notable Alumni:
Bonifacio Nicolas Cristobal – A notable artist[6] who was born on the former town of Sorsogon. He was a member of SPHS Batch 33.[7]
Jesus Lim Arranza – A former corps commander of Preparatory Military Training (PMT) at Sorsogon Provincial High School;[8] became executive of different corporations including United Coconut Planters Bank.[9]
