History
Currently, due to proclamation of the K to 12 program during the time of President Benigno Aquino III in 2013, it became first time in the history of the school to have separate departments for Grades 7 to 11 (Junior High) and Grades 11 to 12 (Senior High). Batch Omnino Exigo, Class of 2015, was the first of all the batches to have completed Junior High in the school. The school did not only serve as a school building for science high scholars, but also served as an examination and a seminar building for different courses in the university such as teacher education and the like.
The University of Baguio Science High School is home to a pioneering spirit that has made a tangible mark in the community: the first socially relevant programs conducted in a secondary school, the Immersion Camps, Survival Camps and Outreach Programs, were inaugurated in the Science High. The angel-soul relationship was one of its special relationships with the freshmen and seniors, was also the first of its kind in the Philippines and maybe, the world.
