BRIGADA ESKWELA 2023

August 14 – 18, 2023
Brigada Eskwela is a yearly activity that was proposed by the Department of
Education that aims to bring together all education stakeholders to participate and
contribute their time, effort, and resources to prepare public school facilities for the
opening of the school year. In pursuant to DepEd Order 21, Series 2023, the
Gawahon Integrated School has joined the Brigada Eskwela for the first time as an
integrated school. The kick off program was held on August 14, 2023 and was
headed by the OIC Principal, Mr. Jogie Sumugat and was attended by the faculty
and staff, parents, students and PTA Officers (Elementary and High School
Department).

Mr. Joshua Martin Serrano, the School Brigade Eskwela Coordinator, gave the
Welcome Message and the acknowledgement of participants. It was then followed
by the declaration of the opening of the Brigada Eskwela that was given by Mr. Jogie
Sumugat. Message of support were given by Mr. Jay Policarpio, PTA President of the
Barangay Estado National High School-Gawahon Extension for school year 2022-
2023 and Mrs. Daisy Sobesta, PTA President of the Gawahon Elementary School for
school year 2022-2023. The stakeholders signed the pledge of commitment to show
their support for the Brigada Eskwela 2023. The Program was closed with a message
of gratitude delivered by Mr. Jogie Sumugat.

After the short program, stakeholders then proceeded to their assigned areas
and the brigada eskwela onsite started. This annual event will last for the whole
week, and enrollment will be happening simultaneously with this event. The
Supreme Secondary Learner Government together with the Barkada Kontra Droga
