SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
MR. KENNETH NYL ORESCO
GUIDANCE ASSOCIATE (JHS/SHS)

2. What is senior high school?
Senior High School (SHS) refers to the last two
years of the K to 12 Program, namely Grades 11
and 12.
In SHS, students will go through a core
curriculum and subjects under a track of their
choice.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

4. OPTIONS AFTER SENIOR
HIGH SCHOOL

5. EMPLOYMENT
SHS opens up more employment opportunities for
graduates. SHS graduates of the Technical-Vocational-
Livelihood (TVL) track may apply for TESDA Certificates of
Competency (COCs) and National Certificates (NCs).
Partnerships with different companies for technical and
vocational courses expose students to the real world of
work. Students also gain work experience while studying;
and companies can even hire them after they graduate.

6. ENTREPRENEURSHIP
With the inclusion of an entrepreneurship subject in
the curriculum, SHS graduates are better equipped
for small-scale business activities, such as running the
family business or even starting their own business

7. HIGHER EDUCATION
By the time you graduate from SHS, students will have the standard
knowledge, skills, and competencies needed for higher education.
Also, some subjects in the College General Education curriculum
have now been integrated into the SHS curriculum. These subjects
will be taken out of the college curriculum, leaving only the subjects
that are more focused and relevant to your chosen course or major.

8. MIDDLE LEVEL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
Standard requirements built into the TVL track ensure that
graduates have good job knowledge in their chosen
specializations. In the same way that SHS graduates are
better prepared for college, they are also better equipped
for developing more specialized skills in technical-vocational
schools.
