TACLOBAN CITY — Eastern Samar Governor Ralph Vincent Evardone has called for enhanced cooperation between local government units and the education sector to strengthen school safety initiatives and bolster student support services.
Evardone made the appeal during the Department of Education's Eastern Visayas 6th Regional Management Conference, stressing the importance of coordinated action between LGUs and schools to address existing safety gaps.
The governor emphasized that students require comprehensive support systems to enable them to learn effectively and develop holistically. He underscored that this responsibility extends beyond educators and requires active participation from local government officials and community stakeholders.
The collaborative approach seeks to establish stronger protocols for school security, emergency preparedness, and student welfare programs. By bridging the gap between local governance and educational institutions, authorities aim to create safer, more supportive environments across Eastern Samar's learning centers.
The call reflects growing regional attention to school safety standards and the broader push to ensure that Philippine students have access to secure facilities conducive to quality education.
