As the next school year 2019-2020 approaches, parents can only look up to an institution where their sons and daughters can move to a good school. However, quality education is a prime consideration in choosing the school where their children could enroll. Parents and their children contemplate and discuss which school is competitive, which school is the best for their Senior High Education. Many parents prefer their children to enroll at Central Philippine University Senior High School.

As of this time, enrollment in the Senior High School has exceeded its target. A 5-storey building has been constructed in preparation for the expected increase in enrollment and to better supply the needs of the students.

Quality education is top among the reasons why there is an increase in the senior high school enrollment. CPU’s competitive edge according to Prof. Edgar A. Eriman, CPU Senior High School Principal, is that “it teaches faith in God, has competent teachers and an environment conducive to [learning].” For example, senior high school students are encouraged to attend the Christ Emphasis Week every semester, where they encounter moral-spiritual learning and fellowship.

Another advantage to enrolling in the CPU Senior High School is that the students enjoy enriching campus events. They are provided with opportunities to develop their creativity, initiative and cooperation. For example, students are urged to participate in sports, literary-musical, and research activities. Also, the CPU Republic, known to be the oldest student government in the country, introduces students to team building and leadership.

CPU Senior High offers Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS); Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM); and Accountancy and Business Management (ABM).
