DepEd urges parents to register kids early

EDUCATION Secretary Leonor Briones has urged parents to register their children early for school year 2017-2018 so that the agency will have ample time to solve problems before the start of classes on June 5.

“We remind all parents and those who will send their learners to the public schools that the opening of classes is on June 5. We are reminding them because usually many parents enroll their children either on or after school opening, which adds to the confusion on the first day of classes,” Briones said.
