Artacho Elementary and High School
Jeanette on Mar 10th 2007
When we first moved to Sagunto to live my my lolo and lola, they suggested we attend NLA(Northern Luzon Academy), but I had a crush at this school, so I said we’ll go here instead. Was I glad I did. I attended this school only for a short time (1st year HS, 1976), but some of my best pre-teen memories happened here. Here, I met and made lifelong friends, and even met my first ‘real’ crush 
I remember the many programs presented on the stage, the competitions, the jamborees. I remember the teachers: Mrs. Jamandre, Mrs. Gomez, Miss Quilaman, and who can forget Mr. Estolas? For some reason, everyone remembers him as being mean and loud; I remember him most for always being around when we were snacking on green mangoes and bagoong or those little, round, red, sour things (can anyone tell me what they are called again?) with salt and sili.
What do you remember about this school? Do you have old photographs to share? I’ll have to dig up some of mine. Why don’t you do the same and share it here?
