π§Ό Maintaining Clean, Clutter-Free School Environments
Beyond the week of volunteerism, cleanliness and order must be sustained. Schools are reminded to:
-
Remove oversized signage, tarpaulins, and any materials with commercial endorsements, per DO 37, s. 2010
-
Keep walls bare and free of posters or decorations
-
Ensure classrooms are not used as storage rooms, maintaining spaces conducive to learning
This promotes aesthetic discipline and compliance with policies geared toward creating an optimal environment for education.
π§ A Unified Commitment to Education
The heart of Brigada Eskwela 2025 is volunteerism, community participation, and preparedness. It’s more than a week of work—it’s a nationwide affirmation that every child deserves a clean, organized, and safe place to learn.
Together, through bayanihan, we can make every school ready to welcome learners with dignity, pride, and hope.
