“Titingnan natin ang kanilang grades at performance after 120 days kung nag-improve sila sa pag-aaral. Ayon kasi sa mga pag-aaral, may relasyon ang tamang nutrisyon sa performance sa pag-aaral ng mga bata,” Mayor Teodoro said.
He stressed that they will rigidly monitor the students' weight and academic performance to assess the effectivity of their program over the period of time.
“Pagpasok pa lang ng mga bata, seven in the morning, unang ibibigay ng teachers ‘yong nutribun at gatas sa kanila. Mahalaga kasi na ang almusal nila ay nutritious dahil ang breakfast is the most important meal,” Principal Marciana De Guzman of Parang Elementay School said.
This initiative of the city Marikina can clearly provide good nutrition throughout their children as they are making sure that these young ones will get the nutritious breakfast they need to start of the day.
