House Bill No.. 6792

Introduced by Representative VICTOR A. YAP

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the Camp Aquino Elementary School and the Sto.
Cristo Integrated School - Extension Campus both located in Barangay San Miguel,
City of Tarlac, Province of Tarlac into an integrated school to be known as the Camp
Aquino Integrated School.

Although it is named the Sto. Cristo Integrated School - Extension Campus,
the extension campus is actually located within the premises of the Camp Aquino
Elementary School and caters to students who are residing in the nearby area. The
extension campus also offers only high school, a service, which the Camp Aquino
Elementary School does not offer.

With the conversion of the Camp Aquino Elementary School into an
integrated school and the consolidation of Camp Aquino Elementary School and the
Sto. Cristo Integrated School ~ Extension Campus into a single entity, the capability
of the school as catalyst of change will be boosted. It is projected that the operation
of the new integrated school will serve as an effective tool in promoting the thrust
“Quality Education for All.” As the services of government is brought closer to the
people especially the youth will be drawn further away from the dangerous clutches
of insurgency, juvenile delinquency, crimes, ignorance and poverty. With a more
enlightened citizenry, the hope for a productive, prosperous, and peaceful
community can be realized.

In view of the foregoing, immediate passage of this bill is earnestly sought.
