Project Title
 Student absenteeism is a
perennial problem of teachers. It is
very difficult to achieve a perfect
attendance, hence there are students
who missed out important activities
willingly or unwillingly. We know that
majority of our students came from
poverty stricken families, or families
whose income is just enough to put
food on their table or worse none at
all.
 Fortune Elementary School has a
total population of 3,957 pupils during
the school year 2014-2015.
Absenteeism has been one of the main
problems being encountered over the
past academic years. Based on the
report on PARDO or Pupils At Risk of
Dropping Out, the Grade One level has
the most number of reported PARDO
as compared to the other grade levels.
 Out of 85 PARDO 26 or 31% is
Grade One. And for this reason, that
the “Project Sagip LuLi” was born, to
minimize if not eradicate absenteeism.

The team conducted a survey
about the possible reasons why
the pupils are always absent in
class. Based on the survey the
following data were obtained. The
respondents were the teachers,
parents and the “LuLi” students.

Followed by not having allowance or
money with 92% as well as not having
enough school materials with 88%.
Trailing behind was laziness with 80%
and the absence of guardian who will
bring the children to school with 48%.
20% of the parents also cited the
distance of their home to school,
while 8% of the respondents claimed
that bullying is one of the cause,
while only 4% of the respondents said

younger siblings.

 The attendance of the pupils have improved
during the entire program and still continues to
improve; thus these pupils were “LuLi” no more
 LuLis were included in the feeding program
to motivate them into going to school regularly.
 Commitment, dedication and cooperation
are the key factors to make the project work.
 Once the problem has been identified, it is
very important to dig deeper to find the root
cause so that the right intervention will be
made available.
 The school needs to work hand-in-hand with
a local government unit and non-
government organization to properly
implement the program.
There are three elements of the people side
• Communication: the exchange of information
both from you and to others and from others
to you.
• Participation: involving the teachers in the
planning and execution of a change so they
can develop shared ownership and
commitment
• Education: providing teachers with what they
will need to know before they successfully
implement the desired changes.

Next Steps
• For our next step, we proposed that
teachers adhere to the program and
that they will continue to strictly
monitor the attendance of the pupils.
• To be very vigilant that once a possible
Pardo was in his class, teacher will do
all means to prevent them from
dropping out.
Next Steps
1. 24 PARDOs or 92.3% has been going to school
regularly. The result has exceeded the target which
was 85%.
2. Some parents were given livelihood training
through the Barangay livelihood program.
3. Pupils felt the love and concern of the teachers that
motivated them into going to school regularly.
4. Pupils became very much aware about the
importance of going to school regularly.
Method: the interventions provided by the Project:
Sagip LuLi Program
 The project: Sagip LuLi of Fortune
Elementary School has became an eye-opener
that absenteeism can be prevented, if only we
will do all means to encourage and motivate the
children to go to school regularly. Given the
different interventions, they felt the love and
concern of the school. And the realization that
going to school is a very important obligation.
On the part of the school, it shows that if
we will continue to be vigilant and monitoring
the attendance, absenteeism can be very well
prevented.
• With the success of the program, the
pupils’ with the help of the teachers will
finally come to realize the importance of
going to school regularly not missing out
important activities thus, show
improvement in terms of academic
performance.
