Department of Education to monitor schools over graduation fee | Sun.Star.
March 24, 2012
THE Department of Education (DepEd) is set to monitor all state-owned primary and secondary schools to ensure none of the schools will collect graduation fees from their students and parents this March.
In the DepEd’s recent order, Secretary Armin Luistro said this is in response to the suggestion of various groups to strictly implement the department’s order prohibiting the collection of any fees during graduation days.
