   This innovative project is intended to raise funds for the school supplies of indigent families whose child/children is an incoming Grade 7 student of the school. This innovative project aims to decrease the number of Students-At-Risk of Dropping-Out (SARDO). One of the primary reasons of having SARDO of the school is financial constraint. Indigent families does not have enough financial stability to be able to support the needs of their children in school. With this project, the school can help augment the burden of the parents in buying school supplies for their children and to encourage the students to perform well in their academic performance.

This project aims to cater 20 Grade 7 students and 20 Grade 10 students.
   To ensure the delivery of basic, quality, accessible, liberating and gender-sensitive education to the learners, this innovative project aims the following:

   The sponsors of the said project signed a Memorandum of Agreement wherein they will continue supporting the beneficiaries of the program until they reach Grade 10. On the other hand, the beneficiaries entered into a Memorandum of Understanding wherein, in return with the good deeds of the benefactors, they will have to maintain a good academic performance. They must not have a grade lower than 75 in all subjects across each grading period and they must not incur more than 10 absences in a school year. If they fail to do so, they will be terminated as a beneficiary of the said program.
