Mr. Roy Genares, Sirao Integrated School’s Principal said “because Sirao is quite far from the city proper and roads going to the school are not good, very few stakeholders and partnership would go out of their way to help, which is why we are so thankful to JKSI and to JIKFI.”, a testament to the dedication JKSI – Meridian have on a quality Cebuano education.
