Barangay Pangulogon has limited educational facilities as there is only 1 day care center situated near the barangay hall and 1
elementary school located at Purok 4. Due to the school's geographic location, teachers and students alike need to cross a river daily for quality education. The nearest secondary school is located at barangay Katipunan and is
roughly 30 minutes away from the barangay, accessible through a local ride known as the "habal-habal". According to BNS data, 100% (153)
of children ages 6-12 year old are
studying in Pangulogon Elementary School while 62% (21 out of 34) of children
13-16 years old are in secondary school, making the number of out of school youths a problem to be looked upon.

Unfortunately, Barangay Pangulogon
has no health station available to cater to the increasing health needs of the community people, particularly that of the pregnant and the infants. It is fortunate though that a Public Health Midwife assigned to the barangay and some local Barangay Health
Workers conduct immunization, pre-natal services and nutrition status
evaluation once a month inside the barangay hall. For consultation and
management of acute illnesses, residents bring their affected family members to
the Rural Health Unit located near the Municipal Hall of President Manuel
Roxas, Zamboanga Del Norte, which is approximately 6 kilometers away from the Barangay's Centro. Efforts are being made to deliver quality health care to the grass roots.

Hi, I have a sponsored child through ChildFund. Her name is Arlene Bubutan Maigang, b. 1999 and she's been studying in Pangologon ES :)

I'm happy to hear about that sir.. After reading your comment, our group looked into our files and found out that Arlene just graduated from grade school last March.. hope to hear more from you.. please do spread news about our blog.. :) (it's still under construction though
ReplyDeleteCool. She told me I would get a copy of her grades in the next letter. I've sponsored her since 2009 and it's great fun. So, she is supposed to continue in Katipunan Secondary School now or (as I understood from what you wrote above)..? How does the kids get there from Pangologon there...Walking? It would be really nice if you could put up some pictures from Pangologon and the surroundings. It's hard to find on InterNet, and also a map exactly where it's placed in Zanorte. However, I added the Chairman on Facebook and he had some Pictures on his site, but mostly on people. But among one of those i found a Picture of Arlene. :) Sometimes the world is small. Do you have an e-mailadress? What are you guys doing in Pangologon? Well, if you meet Arlene and her family, say hello from her Swedish sponsor. God bless! :)
ReplyDeleteWe do have pictures, I will be adding them soon enough sir. I also recently added a video about the area. And eventually if the blog has been completed, we will post a mao of the area,
ReplyDeleteWe're not specifically sure what high school she would go to (can be Katipunan or Roxas Secondary school), but both schools are accessible through habal-habal or a tricycle.
You can contact our group at teampangulogon2016.gmail.com anytime sir, we'd be glad to be of help.
Thank you very much. I watched the video and also left a comment at your YouTube-site. Great to watch!! We keep in touch by e-mail :)
ReplyDeleteHi.
ReplyDeleteI have sent an e-mail to your address...check it out and write back. Btw, why are the videos set to private, I can't watch them :/
God bless!
