                    [Summary] => A public consultation was recommended by two members of the Provincial Board to determine the sentiments of the public on the proposal to move the start of formal classes in September.


Provincial Board members Juan Bolo and Carmiano Kintanar said the Department of Education should conduct a public hearing on the proposed change in the schedule of the opening of classes in order to determine the pulse of the public.

The two also urged the Parents Teachers Community Association to actively participate during the consultation.

Drilon and Flavier have resurrected the idea of moving the school opening from June to September and have armed themselves with all sorts of fine-sounding reasons to ham up the idea, winning like-minded supporters as they go along.
