School History
Harrell Horne Integrated School (HHIS) started as a learning center for the preparatory school age children of families in Bahayang Pag-Asa Subdivision, Bacoor, Cavite, and
nearby areas. It was then named Harrell Horne Learning Center (HHLC) by its founder, Mrs. Ma. Luz Sarabia Villanueva a former public teacher whose professional values and
beliefs were and continue to be shaped and influenced by the ideas of Herman Harrell Horne a nineteenth century American educator-philosopher.
At the time of its establishment in December 1993, HHLC was affiliated
with the National Federation of
Women's Club of the Philippines (NFWCP)
for practical reasons. Some
documents required by DECS (now
DepEd) to operate in time for the
June 1994 class opening were not yet
ready. However, on January 3, 1995,
DECS grated a permit to operate
pre-school education program.
On its first year operation the
NFWCP-affiliated HHLC drew an
unexpected enrolment of one hundred
eight (108) pre-school children. The
number far exceeded the modest
enrolment target of more or less
fifty (50) pre-schoolers. The
following year saw an even more
impressive and significant increase
in the number of enrollees.
A year after its establishment and
on account of its rapid growth in
enrolment and the clamor of parents
for a regular elementary school.
HHLC was converted into a Harrell
Horne Integrated School (HHIS). The
new name reflected the integrated
nature of the school curriculum.
Consequently, HHIS was incorporated
under the Philippine laws and was
registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on April 3, 1995
as a non-sectarian non-profit
educational institution. And was
granted government recognition on
February 2, 1996.
From a humble one-room NFWCP-affiliated
pre-school learning center in
December 1993, HHIS has gone a very
long way. It has metamorphosed into
a competitive, modern and
efficient institution of learning
offering pre-school, elementary
and secondary education programs.
Through the founder's unfailing
faith, dedication and determination,
HHIS has now a total of 27 classrooms housed in
three (3) buildings that include a
four-storey high school structure
and a brand new separate
pre-school education center to
accommodate an expanding school
population which had risen to 1,300.
Notwithstanding a relatively
reasonable tuition, HHIS
continuously upgrades its
facilities and equipment ensure an
effective teaching and learning
environment.
