DepEd Calbayog calls for more public support to ‘Brigada Eskwela’

CALBAYOG CITY, Samar, May 31 (PNA) -– The Department of Education (DepEd) field office here asked the support of the community to join in the preparation of opening of classes on June 13.

Teachers and other stakeholders joined the Fun Run early Monday morning from different points and converged in Gadgaran village where the new campus of the Calbayog Arts and Design School of Eastern Visayas (CADSEV) is situated for the Brigada Eskwela 2016 kick-off ceremony.

Brigada Eskwela is the DepEd’s traditional school preparation drive, rallying support from various stakeholders.

DepEd Calbayog schools division superintendent Raul Agban said that they had chosen CADSEV as the venue for this year’s Brigada Eskwela kick-off so that the public will be aware that a school exists in the area. He also added that since CADSEV is a new school, the more it needs the support of stakeholders.

“We must stand and join together to ensure that our schools are ready for the comeback of our children for them to have a clean, conducive environment not only on the first day of classes but all through the school year,” Agban said.

“To the parents, we are vouching for your support in this week-long Brigada Eskwela to prepare our school so that on June 13 our children will already have a regular class because we have prepared their classrooms for them,” Agban added.

DepEd Calbayog has earned about PHP45.5 million worth of resources since the program was implemented in 2003.

This year, the city government has allocated PHP5,000 each to support class opening preparations in 197 elementary, junior and senior high school campuses in the city. (PNA)
