Progressive Face to Face Learning
Progressive Face-to-Face Learning is comparable to traditional or standard instruction, in which course content and learning are delivered in a physical classroom with live interaction between the teacher and students. The only change is that, in accordance with Joint Memorandum Circular No. 01 s 2021 from the Department of Education and Department of Health – Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of Progressive Face-to-Face Learning Modality, the number of students, school days, and learning hours will be regulated.
Synchronous Learning
This involves online studies that are conducted with the aid of chat room platforms (such as Zoom, Google Hangouts, Facebook Rooms, and Messenger). Online communication helps learners stay in touch with their teachers and fellow students which makes the education interactive.
Asynchronous Learning
A modality of learning that can be carried out online and OFFLINE. This involves coursework or modules delivered by web, email, traditional mail, SMS, via phone calls, message boards posted in online forums or Group chats. The method of learning can be attained even with weak internet access or without internet connectivity. The modality of delivery is student-paced.

It is the responsibility of the student to get his or her materials and modules in school with the help of the parent or guardian.

Q: What is the difference between Hybrid Learning and Homeschooling?
In eQUlP Hybrid Learning, the school most especially the teachers, have the responsibilities in teaching all students, whether it is Face-To-Face, Synchronous and Asynchronous Learning modalities. Parents and Guardians are there to aid and monitor their children’s progress in the said program. In homeschooling, parents accept total responsibility for the education of their children rather than transferring the bulk of this responsibility to an institution whether public or private school. In addition, tuition fees for homeschooling vary in private school regular fees and parents are accountable to the child’s learning growth.
LZDS does NOT offer homeschooling program.
What if there will be transmission inside the school premises?
The School Administrator developed contingency plan for closing classrooms or schools if students or staff contract COVID-19. If one or more students or staff persons in a class is confirmed to have COVID-19, that class is suspended for 14-day to 21-days and under the approval of the DOH and Local government. Sanitation protocol is implementation throughout the campus.
How many days do the students need to go to school for the Limited face-to-face classes?
Students are required to report in school three days a week, 5 to 6 hours a day for grades 1- 12 and 4 hours a day for nursery and kindergarten. The remaining two days will be allotted for the synchronous or asynchronous learning.
We envisioned a school with Foundational literacy,
Academic competency, Character integrity
and Equality.
Our mission is to build every Learner’s future through 21st Century heuristic education approach.
