Naga schools topscore regional achievement test

Mon Baturiano | June 16, 2006

City Hall --- Naga City Mayor Jesse M. Robredo expressed delight over the recent announcement of the Department of Education region V of the results of Regional Unified Achievement Test for school year 2005-2006.

Naga City was tops in all learning areas among the elementary schools in the seven cities and six provinces in the region.

According to results furnished by the DepEd, the mean performance level score of Naga City in the eight learning areas averaged 71.39 topping the region with Legaspi City and Iriga City following behind with 69.58 and 67.73 average points.

Completing the first five rankings consisting mostly of the regionÂ’s cities were Sorsogon City-4th and Tabaco City-5th, except for Ligao City and Masbate City which placed 10th and 12th, respectively.

Among the provinces, the rankings favored Catanduanes (6th), Camarines Norte (7th), Camarines Sur (8th), Masbate (9th), Sorsogon (11th) with Albay province at the cellar.

NagaÂ’s scorecard in all eight learning areas reflected strong performance in English (75.46), Mathematics (73.44), Science and Math (65.17), Filipino (78.61), Makabayan (64.27), Sibika at Kultura/HEKASI (64.27), Edukasyon Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan (EPP) (65.84)and MSEP (59.43).

Randomly selected for the regional unified achievement test were the Naga Central School I, Don Manuel Abella, and Mabolo elementary schools which performed remarkably in English, Mathematics and Filipino, among other learning areas.

Meanwhile, the outcome of the recent DepEd city division achievement test in elementary level showed Jose Rizal ES topping the list with an average score of 64.00 followed by the Naga Central School II, Del Rosario ES, Naga Central School I and Carolina ES.

The other half of the city’s achievement test “top ten” include Panicuason ES, Teodora Moscosa ES, Villa Corazon ES, Don Manuel Abella ES and Calauag ES.

In the secondary level, the Naga City Science High School garnered an average score of 57.96 with its strong showing in English and Science to top the division achievement test.

Concepcion Pequena HS is in second place with above-average scores in all learning areas except in English and Science while Camarines Sur National HS was buoyed by its strong performance in Filipino.

As chair of the Naga City School Board, the city mayor was instrumental in the inception of new initiatives and innovations towards improvement of the quality of teaching notably the acquisition of textbooks that enabled Naga to attain a 1:1 textbook-student ratio from Grade 1 to 4th year HS students and the engagement of more teachers aimed at reducing class size and increasing participation rate at the high school level.

“The recent strong showing of our elementary and high school students is a great improvement compared to the previous National Diagnostic Test results whereby elementary students nationwide scored only between 38 to 42 percent in English, Math and Science while high school students scored only between 27 to 30 percent in the same subjects,” said Mayor Robredo, “truly, our school board’s various innovations are paying off.”

   how come the results for the secondary level were not included? is it because naga city didn’t top majority of the subject areas?
