With school year (SY) 2025-2026 drawing to a close, the Department of Education (DepEd) has issued clear reminders to schools nationwide on how to conduct End-of-School-Year (EOSY) rites.

- By MERLINA HERNANDO-MALIPOT

DepEd Secretary Sonny Angara, in a department memorandum issued on March 4, reiterated reminders on the conduct of the K to 12 basic education program EOSY rites for SY 2025-2026.

These ceremonies, scheduled for March 30 or 31, will honor learners in Kindergarten, Grade 6, Grade 10, Grade 12, and Alternative Learning System (ALS) completers.

While graduation and moving-up rites mark milestones in every learner’s journey, DepEd emphasized that the celebrations must remain simple, safe, and inclusive.

DepEd reiterated that EOSY rites should be meaningful without extravagance.

“While these rites mark a milestone in learners’ lives, they shall be conducted without excessive spending, extravagant attire, and extraordinary venues,” DepEd said.
