Vice President visits Cebu on first day of classes

Vice President Sara Duterte, the concurrent education secretary, goes to Danao City on the first day of classes to attend the turnover ceremony of classrooms at the Melecio B. Tito Elementary School

CEBU, Philippines – On the opening day of classes on Tuesday, August 29, Vice President Sara Duterte was on hand to greet the families and children of Barangay Oguis in Danao City, Cebu.

“This is part of our Last Mile Schools program of the Department of Education that aims to ensure the access of our learners from far barangays where some parents decide not to enroll their children due to the distance needed to be travelled,” Duterte said in a mix of English and Cebuano. In January 4, 1946, Don Sergio Osmeña Sr., the “Grand Old Man of Cebu,” appointed Vicente Gonzales Duterte as acting mayor of Danao.

Duterte explained that when young students from both rich and poor backgrounds dream of graduating from their studies and achieve such a feat, they gain the same equal opportunities that will help them and their families. According to the alliance, teachers have been shelling out cash from their own pockets to help the learning needs of their students, receiving little to no incentives despite numerous overtimes and the like.
