History

On December 28, 1961, the barrios of Sambat, Sinipian, Bihis, Calayaan, Irukan and Cutang Cawayan from the municipality of Taal; Calumala, Tambo, Saimsim and Burol from the municipality of San Nicolas; and Pacifico and Sampa from the municipality of San Luis were separated and constituted into a new and separate municipality known as Santa Teresita, by virtue of Executive Order No. 454 signed by President Carlos P. Garcia.

Ireneo Aquino was appointed as its first municipal mayor, serving until June 1962. In 1971, barangay Antipolo was established as a separate barangay out of barangay Sinipian, as well as barangay Cuta East, which was separated from barangay Cutang Cawayan.
