THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS AND HIGHWAY (DPWH) Leyte 4th District Engineering Office (DEO) has built a one-story, two-classroom school building inside the Macabug Elementary School in Brgy. Macabug, Ormoc City. Covering an area of 171 square meters, the building is designed with the student’s comfort and accessibility in mind. Each classroom is equipped with its own comfort room, a Persons with Disability (PWD) ramp to ensure ease of access, and 10 faucets installed along the side of the building to promote proper hygiene.
Funded under the 2024 General Appropriations Act (GAA) with a contract amount of PHP4,925,161.47, the project aims to help address classroom shortages while enhancing overall learning experience. With improved facilities, students can concentrate better, teachers can engage more effectively, and the school community benefits from a more conducive educational setting. Through this project, it can be shown that DPWH Leyte 4th DEO continues to support the improvement of school infrastructure in the district, ensuring better educational opportunities for young learners.
