Taking a cue from this timeless quote of the country’s national hero Dr. Jose P. Rizal, Biñan City’s very own pride for he was first educated there, the local government unit has education on top of its priority agenda ever since.
The Artista and Atletang Biñanense College Scholarship Program is a one of a kind scholarship that supports the contributions of our artists and athletes to nation-building. Edmar De Guzman finished 3rd in the Batang Pinoy 2018 national games, and just recently, the Biñan Kawayan Music Ensemble performed and received an award in Vietnam.
“While we haven’t fully solved the city’s educational basic problems, we are trying our very best to address them to level up our academic standards,” he said.

“It has become increasingly difficult for students as well as parents to continue and attend higher education because of the continuous increase in academic fees,” explained the top education officer. In 2008, the Municipal Education Voucher Scheme of the Lingap sa Edukaskyon Natin Program was enacted. It was authored and co-written by then City Council members Marielle Therese B. Micor, committee chair on education, and Alfredo A. Arcega, attested by then Municipal Vice Mayor Dimaguila, Jr., and approved by then-Mayor Alonte-Naguiat. Thereafter, it was adapted to the INB Program.
This free education project of the LGU has proven effective and successful given that only one percent of graduating scholars annually fail to finish college, mostly due to personal or family problems. So far, it has produced around 8,000 graduates since its establishment 10 years ago.
Scholars actively participate in all LGU-initiated activities such as in the Araw ng Biñan every February, and many other community service programs.BETTING high on the youth to whom the city’s future lies, the LGU never fails to allot more on educating the people.
