SP renames Mambuaya Elementary School

The 21st City Council, in its regular session on Monday, enacted an ordinance renaming Mambuaya Elementary School (MES) to Mambuaya Central School (MCS), located in Barangay Mambuaya, this city, upon the recommendation of the Local School Board.

The initiative stems from the school’s long-established role as the central institution in the Southwest II District, serving as a hub for academic, administrative, and community-based programs. It also complies with the requirements of the Regional Inspectorate Team (RIT) of the Department of Education (DepEd) for the completion of the renaming process and the issuance of final endorsement from higher DepEd authorities. The ordinance ensures that the school’s name rightfully reflects its function and contribution to the district and the community, The Gavel learned.

The legislation was sponsored by the committees on education and laws and rules, respectively chaired by Councilors Moreno Y. Daba IV and Edgar S. Cabanlas. (JAO/SP)
