Gawad Parangal


This category of DLSU-D Gawad Caviteño seeks to recognize the hard work, excellence, and dedication of public school teachers in Cavite. The award will be given to two recipients, one from the elementary level and another from secondary.

The search takes inspiration from the ways of St. John Baptist de La Salle – the patron saint of teachers. It hopes to find teachers who display a deep commitment to teach minds, touch hearts, and transform lives, especially those of the youth of Cavite. The search ultimately hopes to motivate teachers to work in achieving their optimum potential for professional growth for the province of Cavite and for the nation as a whole.
