Ms. Eda formally welcomed Dr. Corpuz in the Ilocos Norte division saying that “Ms. Corpuz served as public schools district supervisor here for quite sometimes already”.

“We did our best, the best that we can do for the children of Ilocos Norte ket no ana didiay nagpatinggaan diay nanumo a naaramidan min ket ammuk met nga ituloy to ni Dr. Joann,” Ms. Eda said.

Ms. Eda expressed her gratitude and wish everyone well in working with the new superintendent.

“May I express gratitude to all the learners, teachers, school heads, non-teaching staff and all the educational stakeholders or the opportunity to have served the DepEd Division of Ilocos Norte, Ms. Eda said in a Facebook post.

Curriculum and Instruction Division chief Arnel Bandiola also expressed his thanks to Ms. Eda’s leadership in the SDOIN highlighting the impacts of her successful programs and services in the division.

“Ma’am Eda trudged the path less travelled yet you emerged triumphant in spite of the stirs, unpopularity or disappointments that your non-sense governance [has] caused. The results are undeniable. You have made Ilocos Norte, a cut above the rest and one of the [elites] performing divisions in the entire country,” Mr.  Bandiola said.

Ms. Eda served in the Ilocos Norte division for more than two years as superintendent.

Dr. Corpuz, for her part, likewise thanked everybody for the warm welcome the Ilocos Norte division has given to her.

Dr. Corpuz vowed to sustain all the programs of Ms. Eda and at the same time to add some innovations as there are also some lined-up plans for the division.
