AC public schools to have make-up classes in January

Posted on November 27, 2019 by Admin

In line with the suspension of classes on December 2 to 6 for the celebration of South East Asian Games by the Office of the City Mayor, the Schools Division of Angeles City issued Division Memorandum No. 475, series of 2019, which states that there will be make-up classes in all public secondary and elementary schools from January 11 and 18, 2020.

There will also be "no take home assignment/homework/any school-related activities" during the duration of the suspension.

“The decision is to conduct make-up classes instead of take-home activities,” Ma. Irelyn Tamayo, Angeles City Schools Division Superintendent, said.

According to her, this is also to comply with the appeal of Mayor Carmelo ‘Pogi’ Lazatin Jr. to support Filipino athletes, especially that there are games that will be held within the vicinity of the City.

The Mayor said that sports like arnis, sambo, and wrestling will be hosted at Angeles University Foundation, while wakeboarding and water skiing will be at Deca Clark Wakepark in Barangay Margot here.

Meanwhile, judo, jujitsu and kurash will be held at LausGroup Event Centre in City of San Fernando; shooting in Pradera Verde at Lubao town; rugby sevens and archery at the Clark Parade Grounds; dancesports at Royce Hotel and Casino; baseball and softball at The Villages Clark Freeport; Lawn Bowls, Petanque, and Obstacle Course at Clark Global City, among others.
