Mayor Richard Garin proudly presented Miagaoβs Responsableng Ginikanan Academy (RGA) as one of the municipalityβs flagship programs and best practices during the League of Municipal Mayors of the Philippines (LMP) Visayas Island Cluster Conference in Clark, Pampanga, held from September 28 to October 1, 2026.
According to Mayor Garin, the RGA is a local initiative designed to equip parents of pupils and students in Miagaoβs public elementary and high schools with guidance, training, and learning opportunities.
βAt its heart, the program recognizes that education does not begin and end at the school gateβit is also shaped at home, in conversations around the dinner table, in the values children witness, and in the support they receive from the people closest to them,β Mayor Garin said.
Mayor Garin shared the RGA before fellow local chief executives as an example of how a community-based initiative can deepen parental involvement in education while promoting responsible parenting.
Through the RGA, Miagao continues to advance the principle that raising and educating children is a collective responsibility. With parents, teachers, schools, and the local government working hand in hand, the municipality hopes to cultivate a safer, more compassionate, and nurturing environmentβone where every learner is given the opportunity to grow, thrive, and succeed.
