Mayor Carmelo “Pogi” Lazatin, Jr. will donate cement, paint, and various materials for the Brigada Eskwela endeavor of the 53 public schools in Angeles City.
Through this personal donation, Mayor Lazatin aims to extend assistance to public schools once face-to-face learning resumes. This shall also complement the educational programs of the city government under his administration.
“Una po ang edukasyon palagi sa ating mga prayoridad. After two years, ngayon pa lamang po tayo nakakabangon, lalo na sa mga adjustment natin sa education set-up,” Lazatin said.
“Kaya napakaimportante po na handa, maayos, at ligtas ang ating mga paaralan sa pagsisimula ng klase sa Agosto,” Lazatin added.
The mayor reiterated that the city government will provide free uniforms, school supplies, and even shoes to public school students, including Day Care learners. He announced this during his inaugural speech last June 30, also saying that “poverty must never be an excuse for not giving our children a chance for a brighter future.”
Meanwhile, Lazatin’s chief adviser and tactician IC Calaguas and Executive Assistant IV Reina Manuel will also be donating computer sets to 10 selected public schools.
