A new School building for Brgy. Guin-on


The Samar Integrated Community Advancement Project (SICAP) on Friday (June 5, 2009) turned-over to the DepEd a two-classroom school building for the Guin-on Elementary School. The said school building is a joint project of SICAP and the City of Calbayog. SICAP provided funds amounting to approximately 400,000 pesos, while the LGU provided 100,000 pesos, material and labor. The officials and barangay folks also provided labor in the form of pintakasi for the construction of the said building.

In a related development, this school year saw the opening of at least three new (independent) high schools in Calbayog. The Migara High School which produced its first set of graduates on March of this year is now independent from the Calbayog City National High School. It will now open as the Migara National High School serving high school students in the Happy Valley area of Calbayog district.

The Calbayog City Night High School is now open as a separate entity. It used to be under the Cabayog City National High School.

The Gadgaran Integrated School has opened. It aims to serve the students from Gadgaran, Acedillo, Navarro and Buntay. The operation of the said school de-congests the San Policarpo National High School.
