We, at Abiva Publishing House, Inc. proudly presents our lineup of textbooks for Senior High School (SHS). Our core subject titles are authored by subject area experts from prestigious universities in the country. They are armed with long years of teaching experiences and are authorities in their chosen fields.

We partnered with two global publishing giants to design the best educational materials for SHS—McGraw-Hill Education for STEM strand titles and Cengage Learning for ABM strand titles. Our content experts evaluated these materials based on the Department of Education (DepEd) curriculum for these two strands. Content mapping was done to align the content of the books to the required learning competencies. Each title from McGraw-Hill Education and Cengage Learning provides an array of available teachers resource materials which includes an instructor’s manual, test banks, solutions manual, and PowerPoint® presentations.

Forthcoming soon from Abiva are even more SHS titles written to meet the demands of the 21st century students and teachers. We are taking the K to 12 reforms and the introduction of the Senior High School Curriculum in the Philippine educational system as part of Abiva’s continuing program for tapping opportunities to innovate in content and to support the national goal toward transformative and world-class education for the Filipino learners in the 21st century.

Senior High School (SHS) covers the last two years of the K to 12 program and includes grades 11and 12. In SHS, students will take core curriculum, contextualized, and specialized subjects under the track of their liking. The choice of a future career track will define the subjects a SHS student will take during these two years. Students will choose from four tracks, namely, Academic; Technical-Vocational-Livelihood; Arts and Design; and Sports. The student’s chosen track will serve as his/her specialization which will equip him/her with academic competencies, practical skills, and worthwhile values necessary to be ready for and succeed in the 21st century world of tertiary education, employment, entrepreneurship, or middle-level skills development.

The Core Subjects have the same content and the same competencies and are meant to be taken by all students no matter what track or strand they choose. The Contextualized Subjects have the same competencies but different content for each track and strand. The Specialization Subjects have different competencies and different contents. On top of the Core, Contextualized, and Specialized subjects is the period of work immersion. Work immersion allows students to get out of campus and perform actual service in a workplace.
