Lead like the Babaylans, Filipinas!

Today, PUGOD ES joined the nation in celebrating the 2026 National Women’s Month with the powerful theme: "WE for Gender Equality and Inclusive Society" and the sub-theme: "Lead like the Babaylans, Filipinas!"

We were honored to have Ms. Grace L. Deginio as our guest speaker, who shared an insightful discussion on Children’s Rights and Responsibilities—reminding our learners that with great rights come great heart and responsibility.

The day was filled with learning and excitement, featuring a short program and a spirited Quiz Bee! 🏆

A huge thank you to our dedicated teachers, enthusiastic learners, supportive parents, and the whole community. This successful event was spearheaded by our School Principal I, Ma’am Maria Lorena F. Abengoza, and organized by our GAD Coordinator and Program Chairperson, Ma’am Melane B. Lorica.
