The Department of Education (DepEd) Region III officially launched the Brigada Eskwela 2025 regional kick-off in Tarlac with the theme “Sama-sama Para sa Bayang Bumabasa. Tara na, Mag-Brigada Eskwela.”

The event gathered all Schools Division Offices (SDOs) across Central Luzon to commit to six key education priorities: enabling learning environments, ensuring teachers’ welfare, promoting learners’ well-being, delivering efficient learning, building a future-ready workforce, and advancing research initiatives through colloquiums.

A major highlight of the kick-off was the awarding of robotics kits to eight public schools in Tarlac, made possible through the support of the Provincial Government of Tarlac. The recipient schools include Camiling West Central Elementary School, Concepcion North CES, Capas Gabaldon CES, Victoria West CES, Capas High School, Tarlac National High School, Jose V. Yap National High School, and Benigno S. Aquino National High School.
