A SUCCESS STORY
“More and more people from different sectors of the society extend help to
our school this year and we are so thankful for that,” Pagayon affirmed.
The said success of its implementation lies in the collaborative effort of School
Heads, Teachers, Private Partners, Local Government Units, and some
community members like 4P’s including parents and pupils.“Everyone works
from 8 am to 5 pm with very little supervision from the Teachers and General
PTA Officers. We all follow the schedule prescribed since day one provided
by UES Brigada Eskwela Coordinator Mr. Olegario S. Lupac. Throughout the
years, the spirit of volunteerism in Brigada Eskwela has touched our parents
heart even with their busy schedule and even when only the “Ilaw ng
Tahanan” were able to answer our call for help since most of “Padre de
Pamilya” are working to earn for a living. One Milllion worth of support-in-
countless volunteer men and women-hours. Truly UES is blessed with this
kind of people “Pagayon added.
Seeing people work together paint a picture of shared goals and responsibilities
between the school and the community it serves. People from surrounding
barangays who spare their time to volunteer or donate money and resources get
the rare opportunity of collaborating with teachers and the Barangay Council
headed by Hon. Felipe B. Cuaresma and members of of the LGUs BHW and CVO’s
as well.
Brigada Eskwela also forces us to evaluate our willingness as members of the community to serve
when we are called for.

With the opportunity it provides us – to be a part of the solution to the challenges of the
education system in the country – we realize how we see ourselves and our duty to the
community and the country in general. (EL Salvador City Philippine National Police)

All is well as we finally come to accomplished tasks on for a week that includes
cleaning of surroundings – cutting of grasses over the school land, fixing the
classroom and its facilities, and trimming of trees. Concerned individuals donated
goods and food for the volunteers. The Parents also donated bags of cement and half-
truck of sand.
Skilled volunteer workers were already present. Carpenters started repairing and
fixing broken windows, dilapidated ceilings, destroyed door knobs and locks, and
desks and arm chairs. They also helped in rearranging the plant boxes.
Walls, blackboards, and ceilings were painted by the volunteer painters and artists,
using also donated paints and paint brushes. Classroom floorings were also repaired
in order to cater a better learning venue for the students and a harmonious teaching
realm for teachers.
FINISHING TOUCHES! All repairs and changes being made in the past days were
checked and rechecked. Finishing touches for paintings, repairs, and rearrangement
were made by the volunteers to make a school ready for the opening of classes.
Teachers also prepared their papers and posted lists of students in respective
classrooms. All set for the class opening this coming June 3, 2019.
