INTRODUCTION

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
The Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Education Program (STEM, formerly Engineering
and Science Education Program or ESEP from DepEd Order No.38, series 2013 is a science and
mathematics-oriented curriculum devised for high schools in the Philippines. Surigao del Norte National
High School is one of the original identified schools implementing the former Engineering and Science
Education Program (ESEP) or the Science and Technology Oriented High School. Applicants for the
entrance examination must belong to the Upper 20% of the graduating class in elementary with grades in
Science, Mathematics and English not lower than 85%. For other subjects grades should be not lower than
83%. The students enrolled in the Junior High School STEM Program are naturally gifted in Sciences and
Mathematics. Our government is duty-bound to support them following their national development agenda,
which is anchored mainly on science and technology. According to DepEd Order No. 38 series of 2013,
DepEd shall support the program by providing financial support to public secondary schools implementing
the STE program, which used to be known as Engineering and Science Education Program (ESEP) when it
was piloted in 1994 by the Department of Science & Technology (DOST). It was stipulated in DepEd Order
57 s. 2012, Guidelines on the Utilization of Support Fund to Science and Technology-Oriented (ESEP) High
Schools that each school shall be given financial support consisting of a fixed allocation of One Hundred
Forty-Four Thousand Pesos (PhP144,000.00) and a variable allocation of Five Hundred Pesos (PhP500.00)
per student based on the classes’ average enrolment of the last two (2) years or two (2) sections per year
level not exceeding 320 students to augment their regular Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses
(MOOE). The School received the allotment annually. A portion of the allocation was used to fund the
research of the students. The students in return gave pride and honor to the school by receiving recognitions
not only from the division level, regional level and national level but even International awards were
received by the students. It was in the Fiscal Year 2015, where a new guideline in the utilization of financial
assistance to schools implementing special curricular programs was implemented by DepEd. There is a
series of procedure to follow before the allotment is given to the School, in which our School abided and
performed. Unfortunately, no allotment was received for two consecutive years. A newly organize set of
PTA Officers for the Junior High School STEM Program is needed. Involving key stakeholders in public
school improvement is vital. These stakeholders can directly raise funds or provide alternative means of
assistance and contacts.

Parental involvement keeps the learners motivated, interested and keen in his/her work. It bridges the
gap between school and parent. The involvement of parent in school issues not only enhances the student’s
learning in all subject areas but it also plays a vital role in the overall development of the child’s personality.
Through the efforts of the newly organized Junior High School STEM Program Integrated PTA Officers
SY 2017-2018, the Local Government Unit of Surigao del Norte headed by our lady Governor Sol F.
Matugas, was able to donate 270 pieces of Asus Laptops worth Php 8.1 million for all the students of the
Junior High School STEM program of Surigao del Norte National High School.
All the parents of the Junior High School STEM Program were able to contribute Php 600.00 for every
student in order to help finance the renovation of two classrooms for them to become accessible computer
laboratories that can accommodate the 270 laptops.
With two accessible computer laboratories housing the 270 laptops, all the students of the Junior High
STEM Program of Surigao del Norte National High School will have an access to these laptops and can
work more autonomously and gained experience in project-based learning. This allowed them to synthesize
and critically apply knowledge. Proper use of these laptops also enhanced students’ 21st-century skills –
skills needed in an information age – such as the ability to locate and use internet resources which the
students needed for their research studies especially when they are going to start conducting their Science
Investigatory Projects or SIP.

Impact of the Application Project
- Before the students of the Junior High School STEM Program spent their vacant times
doing nothing beneficial outside their classrooms. Usually they just keep on talking with
each other, playing gadgets and making unnecessary noise.
20
- When the project was finished most of the students spent their vacant time in the computer
laboratory doing researches for their assignments.
All of the students of the Junior High School STEM Program will be using the computers in
their vacant time and become proficient in modern technology. Individual computers in the
computer laboratory will help increase a student’s engagement level in the activity, lesson or
assignment

G. Reflection of the Leadership Experience
One of the biggest responsibilities of a School Department Head is to provide strong academic
leadership. The Head of Department is required to lead, manage and develop the department to ensure it
achieves the highest possible standards of excellence in all its activities. They will be supported by the
Faculty, and by colleagues from within the department.
This major role of being a department head brought hesitations on my part to accept the position. I
strongly believed that “Faith, in its most correct form, never removes responsibility; it removes fear of
responsibility.” The will of God prevails.
When I became the Department Head in Science, it was in the Fiscal Year 2015, a new guideline in the
utilization of financial assistance to schools implementing special curricular programs was implemented by
DepEd. There is a series of procedure to follow before the allotment is given to the School, in which our
School abided and performed. Unfortunately, no allotment was received for two consecutive years.
I planned to organize an Integrated PTA Officers in the Junior High School STEM program, that can
help initiate funds to financially support the activities of the special science program
It was realized last School Year 2017-2018. A new set of Junior High School STEM Program Integrated
PTA Officers of Surigao del Norte National High School was born.
Through the efforts of the officers and their linkages to other stakeholders, the Local Government Units
of Surigao del Norte headed by our ever supportive Lady Governor Sol F. Matugas donated 270 laptops
worth Php 8.1 million to Junior High School STEM program of Surigao del Norte National High School. To
house the 270 laptops, all the parents of the STEM program were able to contribute Php 600.00 to help in
the renovation of two classrooms to make them functional and accessible laptop computer laboratories.
Building a strong PTA partnership with the commitment of all the advisers of the Junior High School
STEM Program of Surigao del Norte National High School, I believed that this is one of my greatest
contributions in our school, that is to engaged a strong partner organization with ideas, commitments and
even fundraising power.
