Aguada: A Neighborhood With Two Major Academic Names
OZAMIZ CITY - Aguada is particularly interesting for families and students because two recognizable higher-education institutions have documented addresses there. Misamis University lists its campus on H.T. Feliciano Street in Aguada, while La Salle University-Ozamiz is located along La Salle Street in the same barangay. Both institutions remain active in the 2026 academic year, with Misamis University’s calendar covering basic education and college activities, while La Salle University continues to appear in current education and training records. This gives Aguada a distinctive education-oriented character: within one barangay, residents can find established institutions serving learners at different stages, from basic education to university-level studies.
Malaubang: Housing and School Facilities Growing Side by Side
Malaubang offers a different story. The barangay is home to Malaubang Integrated School, identified in the 2026 DepEd school allocation records, while the national government’s 2026 General Appropriations Act also includes a PHP16.826-million allocation for the construction of multi-purpose buildings and site development at Malaubang Housing under the Ozamiz Cluster. These are separate government initiatives, so they should not be presented as one combined project. Still, together they provide a useful snapshot of the area: education facilities are part of the neighborhood, while public investment is also being directed toward a housing community. For families considering the area, those documented developments offer concrete details worth exploring.
Cogon: A School Community With More Space for Activities
Cogon gives another perspective on living around educational facilities. The 2026 DepEd records identify Cogon Integrated School within the barangay, and the city’s education investment has included improvements connected with the school. In May, the Philippine Information Agency reported that Ozamiz City had completed and turned over 15 Special Education Fund projects, including an archery range at Cogon Integrated School. Separately, 2026 procurement records identify a planned two-storey, four-classroom school building for Cogon Integrated School, Phase I, with bundled school furniture. These developments do not automatically determine the character of every nearby street, but they show how education facilities continue to shape parts of Ozamiz’s neighborhood landscape.
