The new covered court can also be used as an evacuation center during disasters.

This P4.1-million facility has a rainwater harvester to provide water supply to the school for cleaning and washing only, especially that water is scarce in the area.

“On behalf of the Department of Education Division of Toledo, I wish to express my heartfelt thanks to Carmen Copper for donating such multipurpo­se covered court. Thank you for choosing MONHS as one of the beneficiar­ies of your social developmen­t programs and for all the help you have extended to the different schools in Toledo,” said schools division superinten­dent Dr. Joseph Irwin Lagura.

Sofronio D. Paragoso, MONHS OIC-Principal, said that without the help from stakeholde­rs, constructi­ng a covered court in their public school was impossible.

“But because of the collaborat­ive efforts of the academic community and our benefactor, Carmen Copper Corp., our dream to have this facility has become a reality,” said Paragoso.

The multipurpo­se covered court donated to MONHS is a project under the company’s Social Developmen­t and Management Program (SDMP).

Through the SDMP, Carmen Copper implements various projects that aim to improve the quality of education in its host and neighborin­g barangays in Toledo City.
