Mission, Vision, and Core Mandate

To protect and promote the right of every Filipino to quality,
equitable, culture-based, and complete education where:

  • Students learn in a child-friendly, gender-sensitive, safe,
    and motivating environment;
  • Teachers facilitate learning and constantly nurture every learner;
    Administrators and staff, as stewards of institution, ensure an enabling
    and supportive environment for effective learning to happen;
  • Family, community, and other stakeholders are actively engaged and share
    responsibility for developing life-long learner.

We dream of Filipinos
Who passionately love their country
And whose values and competencies
Enable them to realize their full potential
And contribute meaningfully to building the nation.

As a learner-centered public institution,
the Department of Education
Continuously improves itself
To better serve its stakeholders

  • Maka-Diyos

  • Makatao

  • Makakalikasan

  • Makabansa

The Department of Education was established through the Education Decree of 1863 as the Superior Commission of Primary Instruction under a Chairman. The Education agency underwent many reorganization efforts in the 20th century in order to better define its purpose vis a vis the changing administrations and charters. The present day Department of Education was eventually mandated through Republic Act 9155, otherwise known as the Governance of Basic Education act of 2001 which establishes the mandate of this agency.

The Department of Education (DepEd) formulates, implements, and coordinates policies, plans, programs and projects in the areas of formal and non-formal basic education. It supervises all elementary and secondary education institutions, including alternative learning systems, both public and private; and provides for the establishment and maintenance of a complete, adequate, and integrated system of basic education relevant to the goals of national development.

The SDO Caloocan, true to its mandate as a learner-centered institution, promoting quality, accessible, relevant, and liberating education for all, commits to:

S erve with excellence through productivity and good governance;
D evelop the full potentials of learners through contextualized curriculum implementation:
O perationalize the quality management system:
C ontinually improve services and processes towards customer
A dhere to regulatory and statutory requirements; and
L ive up to professional and ethical standards.

Para sa bata. Para sa bayan. Caloocan ang Number 1!

Camarin High School is one of the schools in the Schools Division Office of Caloocan, situated at the heart of District I, then called as the Bukid Area now Caloocan North.

Founded in 1967 as a barangay high school, the school served the community of Camarin and other nearby barangays. For more than a decade, it was under the management and supervision of the Principal of Camarin Elementary School where it held classes in four classrooms inside its premises.

In 1980, it became an annex of Caloocan High School and a head teacher was assigned as secondary school head. In the same year, it acquired its present site of 21,049 square meters donated by the Caloocan City Government. However, the area was narrowed down to 20,499 square meters to give space for Caloocan City Polytechnic College (now University of Caloocan City) extension campus with 600 square meters area at the northern portion of its site. For the first five years of its operation, the school had only three buildings and an old house that made up seven
classrooms. 

In 1986, the school was finally declared as a National High School – independent from Caloocan High School – with its own budgetary office from the National Government. 

From then on, lots of improvements in facilities were done and instruction was enhanced under the supervision and administration of the principals/ officers-in-charge together with the school’s highly proficient and committed permanent teachers, department heads, non-teaching personnel and ever supportive parents and community leaders. 

Through its efforts, the school continues its improvements in its services (physical, human and non-human aspects), to imbue the importance of extending the value learned in school, in our society and to deliver a quality secondary education for the upliftment of the quality of life of the youth and the people in the community. 

In 2008, the Camarin High School Alumni Association was established with the aim of fostering unity among graduates and assisting the school in its various programs and activities.
