After so many years, we’re thrilled to share a major development: the Department of Education (DepEd) has officially announced that the enhanced Senior High School curriculum will soon include Philippine History as one of its five core subjects! The subject is titled "Pag-aaral ng Kasaysayan at Lipunang Pilipino" and marks a crucial step forward in our collective call to restore Philippine History in our high schools.
This is a significant milestone for all 64,000+ of us who signed, shared, and supported this petition. Your voices were heard — and helped shape this outcome.
Our organization, the High School Philippine History Movement, will be releasing an official statement soon. We thank you for your continued support as we now focus on ensuring the effective and meaningful implementation of this new subject.
For now, please follow us at https://www.facebook.com/ReturnPhilHisHS
Mabuhay ang kasaysayan!
Mabuhay ang mamamayang Pilipino!
