Polong National High School Successfully Undergoes WinS Monitoring and Validation
Polong National High School welcomed the Division Technical Assistant Health Unit Team on March 11, 2026, for the Monitoring and Validation of the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene in Schools (WinS) Program. The activity aimed to ensure that the school continuously upholds high standards in promoting a safe, healthy, and supportive learning environment for all learners.
The monitoring covered several key areas of the school’s health and wellness initiatives, including the WinS Program implementation, School Canteen operations, Gulayan sa Paaralan Program, and the Self-Help Feeding Program. The inspection was conducted by the Division Medical Unit, whose comprehensive evaluation assessed the school’s facilities, programs, and practices that contribute to the overall health and well-being of learners and the entire school community.
This achievement was made possible through the visionary leadership of our dynamic School Principal IV, Dr. Marissa M. Mamaril, whose commitment to excellence continues to guide the school in implementing programs aligned with DepEd standards.
We also extend our deepest appreciation to Dr. Felix G. Raymundo, PSDS, for his invaluable supervision and constant guidance in ensuring that the school’s programs remain aligned with national standards of quality and service.
The school likewise extends its sincere recognition to the dedicated educators who worked diligently in preparation for the validation. Special commendation is given to WinS Coordinator, Sir Argie Igama, Head Teacher III – MAPEH Department, for his exemplary leadership, meticulous preparation, and steadfast commitment to promoting the health, safety, and well-being of learners.
Polong National High School also conveys its grateful appreciation to the Division Medical Team for the technical assistance and valuable insights provided during the monitoring, which will further strengthen the implementation of health and nutrition programs in the school.
Through collaborative efforts and shared commitment, Polong National High School continues to uphold its mission of fostering a clean, safe, and health-promoting learning environment for every learner.
