The separation of the school is very much needed for the wholesome development of the school. With limited resources and growing enrollment, the school needs arise. However, these priorities can be done by school manager in a separate management through a well-thought out plan. Republic Act No. 9155 (Governance of Basic Education Act) recognizes the importance of education planning of all levels. This provides both elementary and secondary schools be responsible and accountable for the formulation of school improvement plans with the community and stakeholders. The separation of the high school from the college led to scarcity of academic facilities and pedagogical resources for years. The declaration of independence of the high school department has left a few qualified sites from which to rise and witness educational and vocational development. Based on the assessment of some Tech-Voc entities like TESDA, Carigara School of Fisheries is qualified to open Tech-Voc School with Technical Vocational Education (TVE) as its flagship program. Today, after acquiring new and additional amenities from DepEd, CSF is doing its best in promoting its TVE subjects, such as Fish culture, Fish capture, Fish preservation, Fish processing, Food technology, Agri-fishery, and currently, Computer operations, aside from the regular academic subjects.

These different TVE subjects enabled the students to gain exposure, technical know-how and skills which they can use when they pursue fishery related courses in college or find employment in the future.
