Vice President Sara Duterte extended her condolences to the family of Joel Reformado, the head teacher of Damalasak Elementary School in Pikit, North Cotabato, who was shot and killed on May 26.
Joel suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the body leading to his death. His childhood friend, Elton John Lapined, who was driving the motorcycle they were riding when attacked, was wounded.
In February, three high school students became victims of a gun attack in the town, which led to an increase in the dropout rate of schools in Pikit.
