Navotas Rep. Toby Tiangco and Mayor John Rey Tiangco recently led the inauguration of a four-story school building in Navotas.
Navotas National High School now has an additional 16 rooms to accommodate some of its 4,000 students ahead of the opening of classes on June 4.
“We put premium on the education of our youth. We want them to enjoy and feel comfortable while at school, so they would love learning,” Rep. Tiangco said.
He thanked the Department of Education-Navotas and the Department of Public Works and Highways for their help and support in the construction of the building.
Meanwhile, Mayor Tiangco said the city government will provide the needed facilities and equipment of the school.
He also mentioned that the local government, together with Dep-Ed Navotas, aims to reach the ideal student-classroom ratio and have single shift classes.
An estimated 116 classrooms will be constructed this year according to OIC-Navotas Schools Division Superintendent Meliton Zurbano.
