enough of the best and brightest. Maybe with few exceptions, but generally they would rather consider other professions that do not only provide better material compensation, but also higher social prestige, and more elevated sense of self-worth. As it is, even the second best and the not so seek jobs abroad because of hard times. Ordinary organizations cannot do much about their pay hikes, but they can help in elevating the teachers' social esteem and confidence. Socio-civic clubs should continue honoring the best among the private and public school teachers annually, or nominate them for nation-wide contests like TOWNS or "Bayani ng Bayan", and others. They should keep on sponsoring workshops and teacher-training programs to improve teaching skills. Scholarships can also be granted; not only to deserving and deprived students to school or universities, but also to teachers who wish to pursue further schooling. |

The sad state of Philippine education is leading us to a national crisis, indeed. Every July, the nation is persistently bereft with usual problems: lack of classroom, school buildings, textbooks, and even teaching needs like blackboard, erasers and chalk. Where there are teachers, many are under qualified. Our grasp of English has been slipping, and our students have been faring poorly in international tests on science and math. Such problems result to an uneducated citizenry ill prepared for a highly competitive job market. |
