The mayor exhorted them to be diligent and continue to be good on their studies.

Education, she said, would pave for them to reach their dream and help uplift the economic and social status of their lives and families.

Application form for the scholarship will be opened for the incoming Grade 7 and freshman college students for school year 2024-2025 on May 20 to May 31. Forms can be availed at the Office of the Municipal Planning and Development Coordinator (OMPDC).

Meanwhile, the local government of Mangaldan led by Mayor Parayno distributed 300 sets of learning materials to five pilot barangays on March 19 at the Municipal Hall Grounds.

Municipal Social Welfare and Development Officer (MSWDO) Rowena de Guzman and staff along with the Child Development Workers (CDW) assisted in the distribution.

According to de Guzman, the pilot barangays Anolid, Bari, Lanas, Maasin and Malabago have been chosen because they have the most number of day care learners in Mangaldan. (With reports from 𝑴𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒂𝒍𝒅𝒂𝒏 𝑷𝑰𝑶)
