Academics

With two curriculums being offered in LPHSI (English and Chinese), each day is filled with opportunities to experience new educational and social situations for further development. Our teachers create a safe and open setting, where they can guide students in exploring the world around them, even in the online setting education is in right now.
Education Service Contracting (ESC)
Leyte Progressive High School, Inc. (LPHSI) is a Private Education Assistance Committee (PEAC)-accredited school participating in the Education Service Contracting (ESC) Program. With that, we have been given slots to accommodate students in need of financial assistance.
​
What is Education Service Contracting?
The Educational Service Contracting scheme, or ESC, is a program provided for by the Republic Act 8545 (amending R.A. 6728), or the Expanded Government Assistance to Students and Teachers in Private Education, or GASTPE. Its main objective is to decongest public secondary schools by “contracting” the excess capacities of private high schools through the provision of subsidies for students who, otherwise, would have gone to public high schools. The ESC was a response to stresses and strains at the high school level in both public and private school sectors.
