HISTORY

In 1951, through the combined efforts of then Plaridel, Bulacan Mayor Jose Mariano, Bulacan Governor Alejo Santos and Congressman Rogaciano Mercado, the Plaridel Community Agricultural High School (PCAHS) was established in Bintog, Plaridel, Bulacan with Miguel T. Ongleo as School Principal. Due to lack of space, PCAHS was transferred to the site of the Rural Progress Administration in Pinaod, San Ildefonso, Bulacan, through the initiative of then Mayor Jaime Ileto with Dionisio Caday as School Principal. The school was later renamed Bulacan Provincial Agricultural High School.

On June 20, 1953, it was again renamed, this time Bulacan National Agricultural High School

by virtue of Republic Act 948 with a budget appropriation of P50,000.00. On June 8, 1955, President Ramon Magsaysay signed Proclamation No. 163 reserving certain portions of the Buenavista Estate for BNAHS site measuring 1,924,605 sq.m. or about 192.4605 hectares. On June 21, 1959, R.A. 2416 was signed into law converting BNAHS into Bulacan National Agricultural School of the Pampanga Agricultural College type with an appropriation of P100,000.00. On May 25, 1963, President Diosdado Macapagal signed Proclamation No. 114 reserving as additional site for BuNAS certain parcels of the public domain in Akle, Angat, Bulacan (now part of San Ildefonso and Doa Remedios Trinidad) covering an area of 4,420,296 sq.m. or about 442.0296 hectares.

On February 24, 1998, President Fidel V. Ramos signed into law R.A. 8548, a consolidation of House Bill No. 1449, authored by the Bulacan 3rd District Congressman Ricardo Silverio which was passed on February 6, 1998, and Senate Bill No. 2389 authored by Sen. Edgardo Angara which was passed on February 5, 1998, converting BuNAS into Bulacan National Agricultural State College.

On October 2, 2001, Congresswoman Lorna C. Silverio of the 3rd District of Bulacan filed H.B. No. 2473 seeking amendment to R.A. 8548 renaming BNASC into Bulacan Agricultural State College (BASC). It was signed into law by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo on February 19, 2004 as R.A. No. 9249.
