Araw ng mga Guro

The day honoring teachers, celebrated with school events, gifts, and the recognition of the importance of education. The literacy rate in the Philippines is 96%, and teachers are considered the heroes of the classroom. The day is both celebration and demand: more schools, more teachers, more books, and higher salaries. Filipino teachers are among the most dedicated in the world, and many work in remote barangays with limited resources. The day includes the giving of flowers, cards, and apple offerings from grateful students.
