b) an association of schools recognized or accredited by the Department of
Education. DepEd sponsored or coordinated co-curricular activities must be, at
the minimum, Congressional level activities; DepEd sponsored or coordinated co-curricular activities lower than
Congressional level will not be considered for evaluation and should not be
included in the nominee’s folder. Community- or church-based activities must be
endorsed by the head of the local government unit or the church which sponsored
the activity. OSCI reserves the right to disregard non-DepEd sponsored or
coordinated activities; reclassify the level of activities; or ask a school to
show the original documents if necessary.
