The Director's Message

As we continue our journey to provide quality and inclusive education across Region VIII, I am reminded that our greatest strength lies in our people—our learners, teachers, parents, and all stakeholders who contribute to shaping the future. Every question you raise, every concern you share, and every request for assistance strengthens the partnership between DepEd and the communities we serve.

Our Public Assistance Portal is more than just a tool; it is a bridge. It ensures that your voice is heard, your needs are addressed, and that transparency and accountability guide our actions. Whether you are seeking guidance, reporting an issue, or requesting information, know that we are committed to responding promptly, fairly, and with care.

I encourage everyone to use this platform confidently. Let it remind us that education is not only about policies and programs—it is about people. Together, we can build a stronger, more responsive education system where every learner has the opportunity to thrive.

Let us continue to work hand in hand, with dedication and compassion, to bring meaningful change to our schools and communities. Your engagement and feedback are not only welcome—they are essential to the success of DepEd Region VIII.
