In a unified push for science and innovation, the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) affirmed their commitment to collaborate during the appointment ceremony of the new campus directors of the Philippine Science High School System (PSHSS) on Thursday.

Education Secretary Sonny Angara and Science and Technology Secretary Renato Solidum Jr. underscored the importance of working together to advance science education and cultivate the next generation of scientists and innovators.

“We are fully committed to working together. One thing we discovered nandoon sa kanta ninyo yung ang siyensiya ang sandigan ng maunlad na bayan. That’s the bottomline here,” Secretary Angara said, referring to the DOST Hymn.

Sec. Angara also underscored DOST’s mandates, as he helped the agency secure additional budget for its facilities and operations.

“Dati supporter niyo po ako sa Senado at ngayon consider me one of your fans. Maraming salamat and congratulations. Looking forward to the inspired leadership of our three campus directors under our great Secretary Rene,” he said.

Secretary Solidum, meanwhile, said that the team-up with DepEd is a significant step in strengthening the country’s science, technology, and innovation foundation.

“We are very happy with the appointment of former Senator, now DepEd Secretary Sonny Angara, because we believe that the success of science, technology, and innovation really lies in our educational system starting from our youth,” Secretary Solidum said.

“We have been discussing on how we can work together with them and help them as well in making sure that our reach would go beyond the Philippine Science High School system,” he added.

The ceremony celebrated the appointment of three campus directors: Dr. Rod Allan A. De Lara (PSHS – Main Campus), Dr. Myrna B. Libutaque (PSHS – Western Visayas Campus), and Dr. Mary Grace A. Navarro (PSHS – Ilocos Region Campus). Both secretaries acknowledged their pivotal role in shaping young minds to contribute to the nation’s scientific progress.

The event, held at the PSHSS Main Campus in Quezon City, was graced by key officials from DepEd, DOST, and PSHSS.
