Sir Moore told Sir Gah that he should be moved to chair the Secretariat. Sir Sam added that he would strongly suggest in a meeting for the chairmanship of Sir Gah in the IMSB Secretariat.

On academic aspect, Sir Moore and Sir Gah agreed on DepED Order No. 12 s. 2015 as priority in the IMSB Plan how every Grade 1 learner a reader in Mother Tongue at the end of every school year; every Grade 2 learner a reader in Filipino; and Grade 3 learner a reader in English. In their informal plan, both decided to come up School Reading Coordinators for Mother Tongue, Filipino and English in every school in both districts. Out of the School Reading Coordinators, IMSB should create TWG (Technical Working Group) who is responsible for the craft of Quarterly Reading Assessment in Grade 1 Mother Tongue, Grade 2 Filipino and Grade 3 English. The TWG is also responsible for the orientation, training and workshop enhancement for all primary grade teachers if it deems necessary. The IMSB should be the funders of the IMSB Reading Program in both districts. This IMBSB priority was based on DepED Order No. 12 s. 2015 and DepED Order No. 33 s. 2016. The Co-chair of the Mayor and Secretariat Chairman would finalize the plan and bring it to the IMSB meeting right after the assumpltion of the incoming newly-elected Mayor on July 1, 2016.
