A look back on the Philippine history, one photo at a time.

An all-girls class of Igorot pupils pose for a photo in Easter School sometime in the 1920s. Easter School (now Easter College) was the first private school to launch in the Cordillera region. It opened its doors in 1906.

The first batch of pupils were 8 Igorot boys, but the school opened its doors to girls in 1909.
