I.SCHOOL BACKGROUND

Oma-Oma National High School was founded in 1980 through the effort of Mr. Carlito Delfino who did legal actions in order to realize the opening of a high school in Barangay Oma-Oma, Ligao, Albay. He was the teacher of the first batch of about 15 first year students who temporarily occupied a classroom in Oma-Oma Elementary School.

As years passed by, the enrollment continuously increased in number. Two makeshift classrooms were then put up in Oma-Oma barangay site to accommodate the high school students for the reason that the elementary pupils already needed in classroom occupied by the high school students.

In early 90’s former governor of Albay, Romeo Salalima constructed the first Oma-Oma High School building with two classrooms and a comfort room with two compartments, for boys and girls, which was situated apart from the main building. The said structures were constructed in a one-hectare site donated by Del Rosario family.

Oma-Oma High School remained as part of Albay Schools Division until Ligao became a city. It also became Oma-Oma National High School when all the public high schools were nationalized. The LGU of Ligao City, in collaboration with the DepEd and the DPWH, helped a lot in developing the physical plant of Oma-Oma National High School. More school buildings and laboratories were constructed to accommodate the increasing population of Oma-Oma National High School that includes the Senior High School that began in S.Y. 2016-2017.
