About the School

Just recently during the latter half of the school year 2019-2020, Dr. Nicolas T. Capulong, CESO V, the Director III and Officer In-Charge from the Office of the Regional Director signed Government Permit (PHS) No. S-008, s. 2020 granting the Calayaan Elementary School the authority to transition and operate now as an integrated school that will offer the COMPLETE BASIC EDUCATION (K-10) Course and Curriculum Years effective 2020-2021 school year.

(See insert below)

Established back in 1914, now called the Calayaan Integrated School, the school is and will be offering the Kindergarten, Grades 1-6, and Grades 7-10 junior high school courses beginning 2020-2021 school year.

Currently, the school is composed of ten (10) active and dynamic teachers, led by a pro-active school head.

At present, it has ten (10) available classrooms ready, two of which will be temporarily used for the pioneering batch of Grade 7 students. The representatives from the Regional Office who surveyed the spacious school ground assured the construction of a new building in the coming future that will be used to house the junior high school.

We also have a computer lab where our learners are actually allowed to use the DepEd computers during their ICT classes and for their off-class assignments and class reports needs.

A wide and spacious covered court used for both general gatherings and students' activities.

Running water taps are also available in each classroom and office, as well as at the outdoor dish washing lavatory, and for the tooth brushing trough, connected to and supplied by a central electric water pump.

At its best, the school is a physically and academically competitive school yearly garnering wins that are mostly from the Mathematics, Science, Arts, press conference, and sports related competitions.

Finding our niche in competitions, the school is offering more than S.T.E.M. To achieve globally competitive skills and learning, we are focused on teaching and training S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, English, Arts and Math) to our students.

The highest achievements of the school, so far, between 2015-2016 and 2019-2020 school years were: (1) Once represented the entire Tarlac Province to the Science and Technology Fair and Congress Regional Level held in Pampanga for the Physical Investigatory group category; (2) Twice represented the Municipality of Gerona to the DepEd Tarlac Provincial and Athletics Meet. The first time winning Second-Place Over-all during the elementary boys basketball championship game. While the most recent was for the elementary girls volleyball competition where and when we won a number of games against the best of Tarlac before getting eliminated (but the games were impressively and excitingly worth remembering because our girls performed to a level beyond expectations). As well as the other numerous yearly wins from the district, municipal and from the division levels.

Finally, we assure the public that the school and its dedicated working force are capable of successfully delivering blended learning using both take-home self-learning modules that will be effectively supplemented by online teaching and interactive learning using the most practical and convenient channels that all are completely familiar with, such as Facebook groups' live streaming, Messenger Rooms for video conferencing, Youtube for uploaded video references, and this school website.

More than S.T.E.M., we are a S.T.E.A.M. driven school (focused in Science, Teachnology, English, Arts, and Mathematics)... And not to forget, Sports.

Welcome, to the 21st Century of Education, Version 2, in the Calayaan Integrated School.
