Lack of textbooks is one of the problems of schools, not only in Villasis, but nationwide. The good Mayor who is very sensitive to the needs of his constituents has to address this problem. With funds coming from the Special Education Funds(SEF), the local government purchased textbooks to be distributed to all schools(elementary and high school). This will help students and parents defray the high cost of textbooks. With the Mayor are Vice Mayor Nielo Costales, SB Members Jesus Limos, Rolando Morden, Daniel Ogana and Villasis I School Heads.
