HISTORY OF SAN AGUSTIN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

It was during the incumbency of Cabeza de barangay Segismundo Gagarin that a school was put up. The former barrio plaza became the school site. A two room building was built with its floor height of 4 feet from the ground. Its materials were made from temporary materials, wood and cogon were used for its roofing. The first 2 grades were opened in 1906 with Emilio Villanueva and Claudia De Jesus as the first teachers. Due to the increase in enrolment, it became a primary school which catered to grades I to IV pupils.This was during the time of Mr Melencio Lucas, Mr. Lactaoen, Miss Abon, and Mr. Cordero. After finishing primary grades, the pupils continued their intermediate grades at Victoria Elementary School, now Victoria West Central School. In 1960, this became a complete elementary school which offered Grades I to VI and continued up to this time. This school became SAN AGUSTIN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL which is one of the 9 barangay schools of Victoria East District and became complete elementary in the year 1960.
