IMUS CITY, Cavite – The local government here expressed full support for returning children to school on Monday, August 22, as long as children and parents must be safe, according to Mayor Alex “AA” Advincula in an interview Tuesday, August 16, 2022.

“Sa pagbabalik eskwela ng mga bata, siyempre naninibago lahat yan, dahil halos two years silang naka-quarantine at off-campus classes, sa bahay lang naka-online class, kaya kailangan alalayan natin, karamihan dyan sa kanila eh ihahatid ng mga magulang sa unang linggo ng eskwela,” Advincula said.

“Andyan po ang traffic, especially sa mga school zones, pinalinis po natin ang mga bangketa sa mga street vendors para dumaan sa tamang daanan ang mga tao,” the Imus mayor added.

The Imus local government will also distribute insect repellent lotions to all the students on the first day of class to protect them against dengue which now has high cases in the said city.

“We will also distribute school notebooks and school bags for public school students from kinder, grade school to high school, to reduce the expenses of the parents, especially during this time of the pandemic,” Advincula pointed out.

“Next year, I’m planning to give away free school uniforms also for them para mas lalong makagaan sa gastusin ng mga magulang natin dito sa Imus,” Advincula said.
