Tradisyon vs. Responsibilidad: Ano ang Haharap ni Teacher Christine?

Si Teacher Christine, isang bagong guro na puno ng sigla at pangarap, ay nakatagpo ng isang di inaasahang tradisyon sa kanyang unang linggo sa trabaho. Inaasahan daw siyang magpakain sa buong faculty mula sa kanyang unang sahod. Bagamat tila isang simpleng kahilingan, nagpresenta ito ng isang malaking hamon para kay Teacher Christine. Habang ang ilan sa kanyang mga kasamahan ay masayang-masaya sa ideya ng isang piging, si Teacher Christine ay may ibang mga prayoridad. Ang kanyang unang sahod ay nakatakdang bayaran ang mga utang na naipon niya sa panahon ng kanyang pag-aaral at paghahanap ng trabaho. Mayroon din siyang pamilya na sinusuportahan. Sa kabila ng pagnanais na makihalubilo sa kanyang mga kasamahan, alam ni Teacher Christine na hindi niya kayang bayaran ang isang malaking handaan. Sa halip na tumanggi nang buo, matapang na ipinaliwanag ni Teacher Christine ang kanyang sitwasyon sa kanyang mga kasamahan. Ipinahayag niya ang kanyang pagnanais na sundin ang tradisyon sa ibang par...

📣 Mobilizing Student Leadership for the 2025 Brigada Eskwela: A Call to Action 🏫

The Department of Education (DepEd) has once again ignited the flame of community solidarity with the launch of the 2025 Brigada Eskwela, set for June 9 to 13, 2025. This annual initiative highlights not just school readiness but the power of collective action, this time with a renewed focus on the youth leadership sector.

📣 Mobilizing Student Leadership for the 2025 Brigada Eskwela

More than just a cleanup and repair week, Brigada Eskwela has become a symbol of bayanihan—a deeply rooted Filipino value that resonates in every classroom, corridor, and campus across the country. The campaign will culminate in the opening of classes on June 16, 2025, following a nationwide kickoff on June 9, 2025, themed: “Nagkakaisa para sa Handa at Ligtas na Pagbabalik-Eskwela.”

🎓 Empowering Student Leaders for Real-World Impact ✊

What sets this year apart is the official involvement of student leaders—specifically the Supreme Elementary Learner Government (SELG) and the Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG), together with their advisers. This move signals a powerful shift: youth engagement is no longer optional—it’s essential.

DepEd Order No. 12, s. 2025 underscores this by encouraging schools to hold their own kickoff ceremonies and advocacy events during the same week. It’s not only about prepping classrooms anymore; it's about empowering learners to lead planning, organization, and execution of meaningful school-wide efforts.

These student-led bodies will not just stand on the sidelines. Their involvement in Brigada Eskwela initiatives will reflect their commitment to leadership, teamwork, and community service—core values that extend beyond school walls and into future civic participation.

🤝 Youth-Led Collaboration Strengthens School Communities 🌱

Why does this matter? Because SELGS and SSLGS are the heartbeat of student voice. When these young leaders step up, they inspire peers, engage parents, and partner with school personnel to create inclusive, safe, and welcoming learning environments.

This isn't merely about mops and paintbrushes; it's a leadership laboratory. It's where learners develop collaborative problem-solving skills, understand project implementation, and most importantly, where they experience what it means to take responsibility for their own community.

The involvement of student governments gives Brigada Eskwela a youth-driven face, making it more relatable and sustainable for the long term. It’s the perfect blend of education and empowerment, brought to life on campus grounds.

📨 Bridging Communication: Support Channels Are Open 📬

To ensure smooth coordination, school heads and advisers are asked to channel concerns to the Bureau of Learner Support Services – Youth Formation Division (BLSS-YFD) via blss.yfd@deped.gov.ph. This direct line ensures every question finds an answer, and every effort gets the guidance it needs.

Understanding Grade Transmutation in DepEd

Understanding Grade Transmutation in DepEd In the Philippine education system, grade transmutation is the process of converting raw scores into equivalent grades. This ensures consistency and fairness when assessing student performance. DepEd follows specific guidelines for transmuting grades, allowing educators to evaluate students objectively. How Does Grade Transmutation Work? Initial Grades : Students receive raw scores (usually out of 100) for their assessments, exams, and projects. These initial grades serve as the basis for transmutation. Transmuted Grades : To convert initial grades into transmuted grades, DepEd uses a predefined scale. Let’s take a closer look at the scale: Table Initial Grade Range Transmuted Grade 100 100 98.40 – 99.99 99 96.80 – 98.39 98 … … 68.00 – 69.59 80 Below 68.00 60 Interpreting the Scale : For example, if a student scores between 98.40 and 99.99, their transmuted grade will be 99. Similarly, an initial grade of 85.60 – 87.19 corresponds to a transm...
