Camarines Sur National High School (CSNHS) is a Philippine high school located at Peñafrancia Avenue in Naga City. More than a century old, it was the first national high school founded in the province of Camarines Sur, Bicol
Some of the Thomasites in the Philippines came to Ambos, Camarines to teach the children of Bicol in 1901. After an act was passed to establish a national high school system, one of the primary school buildings in Naga City
was converted into a provincial high school on July 15, 1902. The
principal was Mr. Frank L. Crone and Ms. Minerva Udell was assistant
principal. The staff consisted of 4 American teachers. Initially only 70
students, all around 14 years old, were enrolled in the new high school
but before the first term ended, there were 200 pupils. After a few
weeks, the school moved to another building, in Mabini Street. In 1915,
the school changed premises again, moving to its current location along
Peñafrancia Avenue, a venue specially provided by the provincial
government.
The school closed down during the Japanese Occupation
in 1943. The Japanese used its main building as a garrison until the
Liberation. The school re-opened in 1945. Though the main building was
decrepit, it was still used for classes until it was condemned in 1949.
Over the years, new buildings were added. An alumni association
was founded in 1951. On June 19, 1969 the school was given the status of
national high school under Republic Act 5529. It is now the largest
school in the Bicol Region, with more than 5,000 students.
