Project 6 Elementary School
Brief History
Project 6 Elementary School was initially established as an annex building of Bagong Pag-asa Elementary School in 1957, which served as a primary school in a four-room rented house. Two years later, it became its own elementary school once the buildings were completed in a 11,598 square-meter lot donated by the People’s Homesite and Housing Corp. (PHCC). As the school is currently six decades old, progress has been made with the school since there are already nine buildings in total.
Location
Project 6 Elementary School is located on Road 2 Corner Road 6 of Project 6 in Quezon City.

P6ES is a 15-minute ride from PSHS-MC.
Demographic Profile
Currently, the school consists of students that come from impoverished to middle class families. Other parents have continuously supported school projects and activities focused on pupil development to support students from impoverished families. However, the demolition of depressed areas in the barangay as well as nearby communities has affected the school’s enrollment during the recent years.
Competitions
STEM Competitions
Despite these challenges, students are currently active in joining math and science competitions, both national and international, as shown by the posts on their Facebook group.
