I. Introduction

Brigada Eskwela is an annual school maintenance program of the

Department of Education that mobilizes parents, teachers, students, civic,
and business groups, local government units, non-government units and
other community residents in repairing and sprucing up schools one week
before the opening of classes in June 4. The bayanihan spirit which the
Brigada helps rekindle also encourages all sectors to be stakeholders in
education. The annual school maintenance program enjoins education
stakeholders to contribute their time, effort and resources for the repair work.
The goal is to ensure that the public schools are ready to receive students
when school opens.

This year’s Brigada started from May 28 to June 2 which focused on the
improvement of school and the rehabilitation of the Kindergarten classroom.

Brigada Eskwela also covers cleanup drive, repair and maintenance of

school facilities, furniture and fixtures and beautification of classrooms.

The Brigada initiative involves the donations from local government units,
civic organizations, and other sectors of assorted construction materials for
use in the week-long repair of classrooms, ceilings, roofs, windows, desks
etc.

Brigada Eskwela allows us to understand that if we are willing we can

become a part of the change we want to see. The positive changes that it
creates –both on the physical appearance of the schools and the outlook of
the people that take part in it- are sources of great pride for the DepEd family
The Brigada Eskwela js proof that an effective partnership between the
government and citizens is possible.
