Recently, Fr. Jerome Marquez, SVD, the executive director of the Arnold Janssen Catholic Mission Foundation Inc. (AJCMFI) posted photos of the 8th Graduation Batch of the indigenous peoples in Palawan who underwent the Indigenous Learning System. He interestingly noted that there were more ALS passers from the indigenous peoples at the DedED A & E exams compared to the learners from the city. He also congratulated the teachers, chieftains, learners and the foundation.
