Education Secretary Sonny Angara led groundbreaking ceremonies for two major science high school projects in key cities, reinforcing President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. administration’s commitment to strengthening science and technology education in the country.

On Tuesday, Angara travelled to Cavite to spearhead the groundbreaking ceremony for the Bacoor City Science and Technology High School, a 12-story building that will house 60 classrooms, nine workshop rooms, science laboratories, computer centers, a library, multimedia rooms, and collaborative learning spaces.

“Ito’y hindi gusali lamang. Ang mas importante ay yung mga teacher natin ganadong magturo, yung mga bata natin ay ganado rin pumasok. They are eager to learn, they are eager to expand their horizons,” Angara said.

Bacoor City Mayor Strike Revilla, Cavite 2nd District Rep. Lani Mercado Revilla, DPWH Undersecretary Eric Ayapana, DepEd Usec. Trygye Olaivar and other officials also joined the ceremony.

“This 12-story building symbolizes what we aim to deliver to our kabataang Bacooreño. The type of education that is of quality, and excellence, and globally competitive,” Mayor Strike Revilla said.

A day earlier, Angara also led the groundbreaking for the five-story academic building of Marikina Science High School (MariSci), which will house 32 classrooms and four specialized workshop rooms.

“The future is in technology, research, and development. Kaya kung mahal natin ang ating mga anak, at gusto natin silang makakuha ng magandang trabaho whether here or abroad, mag-invest po tayo bilang isang bansa sa science and technology,” Angara said.

For years, MariSci has shared facilities with Marikina Polytechnic College (MPC) under an agreement with the Department of Education (DepEd). The new building will provide the school with a permanent home, ending its reliance on shared spaces and ensuring a more conducive learning environment.

The project is a collaboration between DepEd, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), and the local government of Marikina. Officials said the facility would support hands-on learning, research, and innovation, solidifying MariSci’s reputation as a premier science high school in the city.

Senator Koko Pimentel, Special Envoy Kath Yu-Pimentel, Rep. Stella Quimbo and former Rep. Miro Quimbo, along with DPWH and DepEd officials, attended the ceremony.

Leading three groundbreaking ceremonies of medium-rise school buildings this year, Angara said that the infrastructure projects reflect the national government’s commitment to advancing education and science.
