In the 1970's, the school provided
education to working and military personnel, by opening an evening class. This
provided more opportunities for those seeking to pursue secondary education.
The growing student populace and the need for more space led to the
construction of the Campo Filipino Campus along Hamada Road. The building
accommodated both the high school and some college subjects. When the buildings
at the Harrison campus were finally completed, the Grade School and High School
Departments became a Laboratory School for BSEd and BEEd students from UC
College of Teacher Education. With the granting of UC's University Status on
November 22, 2003, the Grade School and High School face the challenge of
maintaining quality education through the years by always emerging among the
top performing schools in the region. With the opening of the Senior High
School in S.Y.2016-2017, the basic education of the University has Grade
School, Junior High School and Senior High School programs. The Senior High
School is housed at the Governor Pack Road main campus and is under the
supervision of an Academic Director. On October 27, 2016, the Grade School and
Junior High School Campus was renamed as Campo Libertad in honor of Dr.
Libertad D. Quetulio who was once an Executive Dean and Trustee of Baguio
Colleges from 1946 to 1966 and Baguio Colleges Foundation from 1966 to 1969.
