Schoolchildren get to know each other while lining up for the school flag ceremony in San Felipe, Zambales on June 8, the first day of classes for School Year 2026–2027. The formal opening kicked off a schedule spanning 201 total class days until April 8, 2027 under the Department of Education’s new three-term academic calendar for public schools nationwide. DepEd said the revised calendar is intended to spread learning periods more evenly and provide time for assessments and learning recovery. (San Felipe LGU)
