Maligayang Araw ng mga Bayani! 🇵🇭

Ngayong araw, nagbibigay-pugay ang Kagawaran ng Edukasyon sa lahat ng bayaning Pilipino mula sa mga nag-alay ng kanilang buhay para sa ating kalayaan hanggang sa mga patuloy na naglilingkod nang buong puso para sa bansa.

Kasabay ng pagdiriwang, kinikilala rin natin ang magigiting na bayani ng iba’t ibang sektor, kabilang ang ating mga g**o at kawani na katuwang natin sa pagsig**o ng maayos na kalidad ng edukasyon para sa mga Pilipinong mag-aaral.

Ka-DepEd! Ang pag-iipon ay posible kahit may mga obligasyong pinansyal.

Samahan kami sa panibagong session ng "Sulong Tungo sa Matalinong Pananalapi" with the topic "Saving While You Owe: A Practical Guide". Learn practical strategies on how to balance debt repayment while building your savings, manage your finances wisely, and create healthy financial habits that can help you achieve long-term financial stability.

Sama-sama nating tuklasin ang mga praktikal na paraan upang makapag-ipon, makabayad ng mga obligasyon, at makabuo ng mas matatag na kinabukasan.

Bilang pagtugon sa mga panganib na dulot ng iba’t ibang kalamidad, inilunsad ng DepEd ang LIGTAS+ o Learning Institution Geohazard Tracking and Assessment for Safety, isang makabagong platform para sa mas maagap, mabilis, at data-driven na paghahanda at pagtugon ng mga paaralan.

Katuwang ang Education Center for AI Research (ECAIR), binuo ng DepEd ang LIGTAS+ upang tulungan ang ating mga paaralan na matukoy nang tama at mas maaga ang mga panganib, makapaghanda, at makatugon nang mabilis at mahusay kapag may hazard.
