Calbiga National High School extends deep gratitude and appreciation to Atty. Pedro Q. Singzon and his co-heirs for their donation of the school entrance lot.

This lot will soon be made into a Singzon Mini- Park where students, teachers, and the community can gather. It will stand not only as a place of rest, but also as a lasting symbol of kindness and commitment of the donors to education.

This gift is more than a land, but a legacy for nurturing learning and dreams for generations.

From the entire Calbiga NHS family, we thank them for believing in our vision and making it a reality.
