Mathematics, Science, Filipino and Makabayan. Filipino, English, Science
are the tool subjects. English, Mathematics and Science are subjects to
develop internationalism, while Makabayan together with Filipino is a
learning area which will enhance nationalism. Makabayan is the
laboratory of life .

Grades 1-3, Kasaysayan at Sibika(HKS) for Grades 4-6,
