DISCUSSION
EXPLORE

The school and its community, in collaboration with public and private institutions and organizations are
indeed inseparable if they are to create an impact on the lives of the students and members of the
community they are committed to serve. Various groups from both are very willing to join forces in
pursuing mutually beneficial and productive programs and projects for the good interest of all. All that is
needed are well-defined plans and creative efforts aimed at establishing close affiliations between and
among them. Such interrelationships will be characterized by reciprocity and genuine sharing of
responsibilities, thus ensuring valuable gains and attainment of educational objectives. Harnessing the
tremendous influence and expertise both of groups will be able to extend is definitely a laudable step
towards promoting the desired proficiency of the teaching force in the school as well as the efficiency in
the services of some associated organizations.

The school can enjoy linkages and networking activities with international, national and local
organizations in the community for mutual benefits and assistance needed. including the much -needed
assistance in terms of human and material resources then determine the institutions and organizations
with parallel objectives and services. A joint scheme could be worked out with higher education
institutions offering degrees along the same line such as teacher education.

DepEd schools and laboratories for Field Study courses and practice teaching hence the exposure of
future teachers to the reality of teaching.

A network system could be designed incorporating the strength and availability of services and expertise
from both or among the group. The schools could also benefit immensely from agencies whose mission
includes corporate social responsibility. With the help of said organizations, the school can fully realize
its objective of delivering quality educational services for the country’s youth. As the networking plan
progresses, the enormous contribution of all the willing partners deserve the community’s commendation
and patronage. Linkages also termed interconnections with institution functioning along the same mission
are intended to serve members of both sides according to their respective needs, interest and objectives.
They create bonds together to solicit support and assistance for purposeful activities which could be
facilitated faster and better considering the doubling of energy and resources. Following are some
working
linkages between schools nationwide and associations/centers with local offices manned by a complete
set of officials and active members.
