Brigada Eskwela (National Schools MaintenanceWeek) is an annual program of Department of Education since 2003. It aims to enhance the value of cooperation and volunteerism from any part of the society for the schools through cleaning and repairing the school. It also develops the awareness and involvement of the community for the benefit of education. The program is very successful yearly because parents and stakeholders flock to support it. In a sense the effort also becomes a symbolic gestures of how the private sector strongly support public education.
This school year, Brigada Eskwela happens on May 23 – 28, 2011. The ZSNHS – San Pedro Annex expects full participation from the parents and the private individuals who have been supportive of it from the beginning of it’s implementation.
