MANILA, Feb. 6, 2014 (PIA)–Gitakda sa Department of Education (DepEd) sa Marso 27 ug 28 ang graduation sa mga pampublikong tunghaan sa nasud base sa gipagawas nga DepEd Order #10 series of 2013.
Gimando usab sa ahensya nga himuong yano lamang ang pagpahigayon sa graduation sa mga bata ug hugot usab ang ilang pasidaan batok sa pagpaningil og mga graduation fees.
Matud pa ni DepEd Assistant Secretary Tonisito Umali, wala pugngi ang mga prinsipal, administrator ug Parents-Teachers Association (PTA) sa mga pampublikong tunghaan nga mangolekta og graduation fees aron himuong memorable ang okasyon.
Apan angay dili kini mahimong babag alang sa uban nga dili maka-martsa tungod kay dili makabayad sa maong graduation fee.
Kun may reklamo kalabot sa pugos nga pagpaningil sa graduation fee, mahimong e-text ang reklamo sa DepEd hotline nga 0919-4560027. (PIA7-Bohol/ECB)

Gipangunahan ni Presidente Aquino ang ceremonial turn-over sa mga lawak-tunghaan sa mga tinun-an sa Grade 7, 8 ug 9.
Matud pa ni Presidente Aquino, ang pagkumpleto sa kakulang sa mga lawak-tunghaan sa nasud nahimo tungod na usab sa pagtinabangay sa pribadong sektor ug gobyerno aron mahatagan og dalan ang pasalig sa administrasyong Aquino nga dekalidad nga edukasyon alang sa mga estudyante.
Giingong ang mga lawak-tunghaan gikan sa one story structure ngadto na sa multi-floor buildings nga gitukod gamit ang nasudnon ug lokal nga budget ug donasyon.
Matud pa nga 35,000 ka lawak-tunghaan ang naggikan sa nasudnong budget, 13,189 usab ang gikan sa pondo sa LGUs ug 14,886 ang gikan sa mga lokal nga donasyon ug 1,215 ang gikan sa foreign donations.
Kapin sa duha ka libo usab ang naggikan sa PPP for school infrastructure project.
Apan matud pa sa Presidente, dili dinhi matapos ang pasalig alang sa dekalidad nga edukasyon. Giingong padayong maningkamot ang gobyerno aron makab-ot ang hayag nga kaugmaon.
Mao nga human makumpleto ang kakulang sa lawak-tunghaan, textbooks ug mga lingkoranan, target na usab sa gobyerno nga tubagon ang 4,000 nga kakulang sa mga magtutudlo sa nasud.
Samtang gipasalig ni DepEd Secretary Armin Luistro nga magpatukod pa gihapon sila og mga bag-ong lawak-tunghaan isip pagpangandam na usab sa implementasyon sa senior high school nga Grades 11 ug 12 sa tuig 2016. (PIA7-Bohol/ECB)

President Benigno S. Aquino III said on Monday that the government finally achieved a zero backlog in classrooms with the construction of 66,813 classrooms.
In his speech during the ceremonial turn-over of the 66,813 classrooms at the Carmona National High School here, the Chief Executive said the Department of Education (DepEd) finally achieved its target of zero backlog last December, 2013.
“Nang maupo tayo sa puwesto, tumambad sa atin ang nakakalulang kakulangan sa sektor ng edukasyon. Kapos tayo sa libro, silya, at mga guro. Mayroon din tayong—eto na po ang pamosong numero—ng 66,800 na kakulangan sa silid-aralan,” he said.
President Aquino said the government managed to mobilize partnerships with various government agencies, local government units (LGUs), the private sector and foreign donors to help meet the target.
The classrooms, ranging from one-storey structures to multi-floor buildings, were constructed using national and local government funds and donations from the private sectors.
The President lauded Education Secretary Luistro for his commitment and dedication to provide the basic needs of students such as classrooms, chairs and books, among others.
President Aquino expressed belief that education is the central strategy in reducing poverty and building national competitiveness. (PCOO)
