Historical Background

Binalbagan Catholic College begun as Binalbagan Catholic High School. The starting of a Catholic School in the area was a top priority of the Columban Fathers when they came to Negros Island in 1950.This was in accord with the idea of the Catholic church all over the world. On that period, there were very few schools of higher education in the province of Negros Occidental.

  It was1961, when the Catholic Church in Southern Negros saw the needs, to help the poorer students get a tertiary Catholic Education as they could not afford to go to the colleges in the cities.

  The School Year 1978-79 was marked by a significant change in BCC including the elementary and high school departments. The administration of the school was turned over completely to the Presentation Sisters. During the term of Sr. Aquila Sy, from 1978-1985 BCC launched its program for social transformation and became an affiliate of the Education Forum, one of the Mission Partners of the Association of Major Religious Superiors of the Philippines. During the critical periods of the country’s history, BCC stood on the side of the oppressed.

School Years 1996-1999 were marked by the rise in the academic performance of graduates in BCC’s elementary, high school and college departments. Both the elementary and high school departments consistently made 100% passing in the national academic tests. In addition, the high school ranked as one of the top twenty provincial high schools in the country. The education students obtained ratings higher than the national average in the board examinations. BCC also had graduates who were national and regional topnotchers in the CPA and PLET board examinations.

BCC continues to work for its dream. It promotes among others the sovereignty of the country, equality among community of nations and the dignity of our people.
