Annual Accomplishment Report 2020

This program of the school plays a vital role in promoting learning by serving as a
venue for pupils to experience the actual community life of producing their own harvest
in preparation for them when they join the mainstream of society. Gulayan sa Paaralan is
indeed an ideal program to develop and enhance the skills of students in relation to agriculture.
This would not only teach them to be responsible, but would also make them realized
the value of hardship and personal labor. By exposing them on how to propagate plant,
it would be easy for them to eat their personal harvest instead of forcing them to do so.
In this year’s activity, the initiative made parallel to this program started with the
solicitation of seeds from the Bureau of Plant and Industry as early as May of the current.
The Agency benevolently responded and handed a hundred packs of seeds. Having
such farm input planning and making layout of the garden started. Harvest were strictly recorded
and handed over to the feeding teacher. The rest were also sold to sustain the
implementation of such program.
Besides maintaining the Gulayan sa Paaralan, other activities were made in
preparation for the school involvement in the 2019 Technolympic of Talents. Thus the
school particularly Agri teachers were involve in propagating not only vegetable but also
ornamental plants which was utilize in that activities. Through that the school had
proven that it’s not only effective in ensuring food sustainability program but also in
developing skills of students relevant to plant propagation as it garnered the highest
rank in the Dish Garden competition and winning the overall recognition in the 2019 SDO
Pasay Technolympic of Talents.
