Sometime in 1934, the Kuo-Min-Tang (Bacolod Chapter), the Negros Occidental Chamber of Commerce, and the Fil-Sino Organization, joined in establishing a Chinese school in Bacolod City. Chinese parents and community leaders had long felt the need for an educational institution where the children of the Chinese community could learn not only the rudiments of English studies, but also the arts and culture of the land of their ancestors. TAY TUNG, meaning "equality for all, whether rich or poor, regardless of race, creed, and religion", was chosen as the name of the school - P. Hernaez St., Bacolod City.

Taking roots, gaining grounds, soaring high the Agustinian way! Curricular programs include baccalaureate degrees and basic education (high school, grade school and pre-school) - Benigno Aquino Dr., Bacolod City.
