History
Patag
Elementary School located in the northern part of the City of Baybay with a
total land area of 3,033 sq. meters. It is eight kilometers from the city
proper of Baybay, three kilometers from the Visayas State University(VSU). It
is bounded on the south by barangay Gabas, on the west by barangay Guadalupe,
and on the north by the VSU.
Established
in 1997, our school began its journey as a multigrade institution. During its
formative years, it played a crucial role in shaping the educational landscape
for the youth in our area. At present, it is a complete elementary grade from kindergarten
to Grade six.
The
school reached a significant milestone in 2005 when it transitioned into a
complete monograde institution. This shift marked a new chapter in its
development, aligning with the evolving educational standards. In 2007, two Party
list standard buildings were erected, providing modern facilities to enhance
the learning experience for our learners.
Our
school has been fortunate to the effort of the barangay officials of Brgy.
Patag, whose influence has contributed to the growth and spirit of the
institution.
The
dedication and hard work of our students and faculty have borne fruit in
various achievements. In 2018 up to 2023, our school proudly branded as No Non-
Readers in the District 7. This is because of the dedicated and committed
teachers at Patag Elementary School. Additionally, the school has been
recognized as an Outstanding School-Based Management (SBM) Level 3 Implementer
for the school Year 2020-2021.
Beyond
the classroom, our school actively engages with the community. Participating in
fiesta activities, tree planting initiatives and barangay Clean-Up Drive, as we
aim to instill a sense of civic responsibility and environmental consciousness
in our learners.
Our
journey has not been without challenges. However, we have made strides in
overcoming obstacles, evidenced by a decrease in dropouts and a concurrent
increase in enrollment. Though fluctuation of enrollment for a year occurs. These
transformations underscore our resilience and commitment to providing quality
education to the local youth.
As
our school continues to evolve, we remain dedicated to fostering an environment
of learning, growth, and community engagement. Together, we look forward to the
future, building on our successes and addressing challenges with unwavering
determination. Our school stands as a testament to the power of education in
shaping the destinies of individuals and communities alike.
