President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. visits Pinaglabanan Elementary School in San Juan City and leads a government distribution of tablets and other learning materials for public school students on Thursday. Marcos meets the city’s 105 Presidential Scholars and, with Education Secretary Sonny Angara and local officials, takes part in a ceremonial handover aimed at improving access to digital learning. Reports say tablets are provided to students from Kindergarten to Grade 12, covering all 13 public schools in San Juan City, with distribution described as benefiting about 13,000 students.
During the event, Marcos observes demonstrations on how the tablets are used to support learning and expand opportunities for students. The distribution also includes additional learning support materials, including 1,000 school bags for Kindergarten and Grade 1 learners provided through the Office of the Executive Secretary, according to one report.
The coverage frames the activity as part of broader education assistance intended to help students use government-provided resources for their studies. The reports list Marcos’s accompanying officials, including Rep. Bel Zamora and San Juan City leadership.
