BATAAN Governor Joet Garcia has distributed laptops to public school teachers and principals in the province.

The distribution was held on December 18 at the Bataan People’s Center inside the Capitol.

In his message, Garcia thanked the teachers for their sacrifices to ensure that Filipino students will have quality education.

“Ang pagiging isang guro ay hindi po biro dahil sila po ang tumatayong pangalawang magulang ng ating mga anak at ito’y kanilang pinili hindi lamang para magbahagi ng kanilang kaalaman kundi upang makatulong sa ating bansa sa pamamagitan ng paglinang at paghubog sa mga kakayahan, kaalaman at pag-uugali ng mga susunod na mamumuno at mangunguna sa iba’t ibang larangan at sektor ng lipunan,” Garcia said.

The governor said that the laptops will be used by their teachers and principals in the continued implementation of the program in the use of the XEPTO Learning Management System.

Garcia was joined by Cong. Gila Garcia, Cong. Jett Nisay, Vice Gov. Cris Garcia, Power Mac Center CEO Lawrence Sison, COO Mirabelle Tan, and DepEd-Bataan Schools Division Office Superintendent Dr. Carolina Violet.

“Makaaasa po kayo na buo po ang suporta ng Pamahalaang Panlalawigan sa mga adhikain ng DepEd Philippines para mas mapataas pa ang kalidad ng edukasyon sa ating Lalawigan,” he added.
