Magno along with faculty and students from WVSU-Him and dedicated LGU volunteer teachers.
During the launch of the Bayan Ko, Titser Ko program, five trainers (Ma’am Jonalyn Duhaylungsod, Ma’am Janice Castillo, Sir Kent Escobin, Ella Veraguas, and Kiert Jan Parcero) who completed the “Training of Trainers” program in Quezon City from August 8-11, 2024, led training sessions for students and volunteers.
