Muntinlupa City Government distributing supplies to over 90,000 public students

Recently in the progressive City of Muntinlupa, the City Government of Muntinlupa led by Mayor Ruffy Biazon officially started the distribution of free shoes, bags and other supplies to over ninety thousand local public school students, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

The Muntinlupa City government has started distributing its free Balik Eskwela Packages to public school students.

The Balik Eskwela Package will benefit 90,007 students from day care level to senior high school. Mayor Ruffy Biazon led the distribution of the Balik Eskwela packages on Sept. 4. 

“With the high cost of commodities, your City Government has set aside funds so we can help families provide for their children. This is our way to help offset the cost of school supplies especially for struggling families,” he said. 

Biazon distributed the free packages to students at Sucat Elementary School, Cupang Senior High School, Cupang Elementary School, Alabang Elementary School, Pedro E. Diaz High School, and Putatan Elementary School.

Councilors and city government department heads also joined the simultaneous giving out of the kits in other schools around the city as well.

Each Balik Eskwela Package consists of a school bag, a pair of leather shoes, eight notebooks, a case of pencils and sharpener for Kinder to Grade 3, and assorted ballpens for Grade 4 to Grade 12 students.

For day care students, the kits include a school bag, two notebooks, two jumbo pencils, pad paper, crayons, and a drink bottle.
