The decision to expand the offering to junior and senior high school is due to the request of the parents who prefer to enroll their children near their house locations.

School Principal Hazel Hernandez explained that there will be three (3) additional buildings for the junior and senior high school. However, construction will be done in phases and the first building is expected to be finished by the next school opening.

Mary Hill College Avida Campus is currently in process of applying for government permit school year 2020-2021 and the first building will serve as classrooms for grades seven (7) and eleven (11) next school opening.
