Yesterday, the School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (SDRRM) Council of Eastern Bacoor National High School successfully participated in the Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) for the 1st Quarter of 2026.
Prior to the conduct of the drill, Jerick R. Alvarez, SDRRM President, called for a short pre-drill briefing with the Class Presidents of Grade 8 and Grade 9 to orient them on the proper procedures before, during, and after an earthquake. The orientation ensured that student leaders understood their roles in assisting teachers and guiding their classmates during the emergency simulation.
Following the briefing, Mr. Alvarez also convened a coordination meeting with the participating youth organizations and school clubs to discuss their respective responsibilities in facilitating the drill, including crowd management, monitoring evacuation routes, and ensuring the safety and orderly movement of learners.
At exactly 3:30 PM, Easternian learners and teachers performed the โDuck, Cover, and Holdโ procedure inside their classrooms upon the drill signal. This was followed by an orderly evacuation through the designated evacuation routes toward the identified safe zones within the school grounds.
By 3:33 PM, all participating students had safely arrived at their designated evacuation areas. By 3:40 PM, assigned youth organization officers conducted a thorough inspection of all buildings, floors, and classrooms to ensure that no students or teachers were left behind. After confirming that all areas were cleared, the officers reported โAll Clearโ to the SDRRM leadership.
