II. Rationale
The presence of the COVID-19 brings difficulties and changes to the different phases of the society.
It is considered as one of the potential barriers that worsen the environmental condition of each
place. According to RA 9003, ECOLOGICAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT ACT of
2000 says that in partnership with the stakeholders, the law aims to adopt a systematic,
comprehensive and ecological solid waste management program that shall ensure the protection
of public health and environment. The law ensures proper waste segregation, collection,
storage, treatment and disposal of solid waste through formulation and adaption of best eco-
waste products. Thus, burning of trash/garbage, throwing in the seas and in the canals
deteriorate the ozone layer and contribute to the climate change which harm the Earth. These
practices are what many people think convenient way without thinking the effects to us. Taking
into consideration the topographical location, either wide or limited in space, cleanliness must
be the topmost priority but in eco- friendly practices to lengthen the gratifying nature of the
present and the future.
So that, Tacdugan Elementary School supports Solid Waste Management which provides an
opportunity to learners, parents and other stakeholders to habitually practice a better and
simpler way of managing solid waste materials in the school premise and will also be extended
to the respective community without putting the nature at risks.
So, eSWIPE (Eliminate School’s Wastes through Intensified Practices for the
Environment) project of YES O teacher-adviser, is developed to eliminate the biodegradable
and non-biodegradable wastes scattering in the school premises. Through the initiatives of the
learners, teachers, parents and other stakeholders, will accept donations such as garbage bags
and sacks. These materials will be used to store and tightly packed up collected wastes until
rotten completely. The other purpose of these project is to make an organic fertilizer to the
school’s garden and also an additional soil to the school’s ground since it is situated in a low-
lying area where reached by the high tide.
On the other hand, this project allows building eco-friendly practices in the most convenient
way for learners, teachers, parents and community as an essential for establishing school-
family/community partnership that constitutes the foundation for all other forms of family
involvement in environmental education.
