Science HS in Marikina, Bacoor get new buildings
TWO science high schools have broken ground in Marikina City and Bacoor, Cavite in support of the Marcos administration's commitment to strengthening science and technology education in the country. Education Secretary Sonny Angara led the groundbreaking last March 11 of a 12-story building for the Bacoor City Science and Technology High School, which will house 60 classrooms, nine workshop rooms, science laboratories, computer centers, a library, multimedia rooms, and collaborative learning spaces. Angara said that the building will not just be a building only, but an inspiration for teachers and students to study and work. "They are eager to learn, they are eager to expand their horizons," Angara added. Bacoor City Mayor Strike Revilla said that the building symbolizes what they aim for Bacooreño students. "The type of education that is of quality, and excellence, and globally competitive," Revilla said. Aside from Revilla, Cavite 2nd District Rep. Lani Mercado Revilla, Department of Public Works and Highways Undersecretary Eric Ayapana, DepEd Undersecretary Trygye Olaivar and other officials also joined the ceremony. The day before, Angara also led the groundbreaking of the five-story Academic Building of the Marikina Science High School (MariSci), which will contain 32 classrooms and four specialized workshop rooms. The new building, built under a partnership with the DPWH, will provide the school with a permanent home, ending its reliance on shared spaces and ensuring a more conducive learning environment after sharing with the Marikina City Polytechnic College for years. Angara said that with science, technology, research and development being the future, the country should make more investments in the field so that students will get better jobs. He further said that the infrastructure projects reflect the national government's commitment to advancing education and science.
