			CALBAYOG CITY – A 
			one-storey two-classroom school building was recently built in 
			Ilijan Elementary School, Sto. Niño, Samar with a total contract 
			amount of P5.64 million in convergence with the Department of 
			Education.
			Where a make-shift 
			building made of light materials that was once used as the SBM 
			(School Based Management) Hub and library, is now a new structure 
			which has a PWD ramp with guard rails, hand washing area, comfort 
			rooms enclosed in each classroom together with the prescribed paint 
			which will be enjoyed by seven teachers and 144 pupils of the 
			school. 
			
			One of the classrooms will 
			be used as the faculty room that can serve as a venue for meetings, 
			conferences and a place where visitors can be accommodated. The 
			other room will be used for two purposes, a library and a computer 
			room. The school has been chosen as one of the beneficiaries of the 
			DepEd Computerization Program (DCP) thus, this room will be very 
			useful in terms of doing research and computer classes, said 
			Marianito Jackson, School Principal.
			This additional classrooms 
			give more space for school-related activities and plays a vital role 
			in building a learning and positive environment.
