A Promising Start: Tabunan National High School Ushers in SY:'23-'24

The morning of August 29, 2023, marked a significant moment for Tabunan National High School as it welcomed the commencement of the new school year, 2023-2024, with a spirited flag ceremony. Led by the diligent members of the Supreme Student Government and attended by both teaching and non-teaching staff, the event set a positive tone for the year ahead.

The flag ceremony was conducted with utmost precision and reverence, underscoring the school's commitment to fostering discipline and respect among its students. This collective effort showcased the unity and dedication that will undoubtedly define this academic year.

Gracing the opening of classes were distinguished guests, including the Vice-Mayor of Almeria, Honorable Marygie Tacoy, and the President of the Parent Teacher Association, Felix Gaviola III. Their presence underscored the importance of collaboration between the school and the community in shaping the educational journey of the students.

Following the flag raising, the newly appointed school head, Mrs. Jennifer Veruen, took the stage to deliver a warm and motivating welcome address. In her remarks, she expressed her heartfelt gratitude towards both the teaching and non-teaching personnel for their unwavering commitment and passion in educating the young minds of the community.

One of the most awaited moments of the morning was when the dedicated teaching staff was introduced to the eager students. This introduction not only provided a glimpse into the educators who would be guiding them throughout the year but also signaled the beginning of a journey filled with knowledge, growth, and shared experiences.

The event took an even more exciting turn when Vice Mayor Honorable Marygie Tacoy addressed the students with her welcoming words. She emphasized the importance of education in shaping their futures and encouraged them to embrace learning as a lifelong endeavor.

Vice Mayor Tacoy then shared a heartwarming announcement that sent waves of enthusiasm through the audience. Plans for the establishment of a mini library, a gift from Mr. Rowel Cabulang, a dedicated co-rotarian, were unveiled. This generous donation is set to benefit not only Tabunan National High School but also several barangays across the entire province of Biliran.

The forthcoming mini library project is poised to become a valuable resource hub, opening doors to knowledge, imagination, and exploration for students and community members alike. This philanthropic endeavor exemplifies the spirit of collaboration and community support that drives positive change.

The opening program culminated with heartfelt gratitude from PTA President Felix Gaviola III. His words encapsulated the unity and appreciation that sets the stage for a promising academic year.

As the first day of classes unfolded, the air was filled with enthusiasm and anticipation. With the guidance of experienced educators, the support of the school's administration, and the promise of a mini library on the horizon, students embarked on a path of discovery, learning, and personal development.

The commencement of the school year is a reminder that education is a collaborative effort that involves not only teachers and students but also the community as a whole. Tabunan National High School's commitment to providing quality education and fostering a nurturing environment is evident from the momentous start of this academic journey.

As the school year progresses, the institution's collective dedication to excellence and growth will undoubtedly continue to shine, setting the stage for a year filled with achievements, discoveries, and memorable moments.

PEBRERO 25 | '𝘿𝙄 𝙋𝘼𝙎𝙄𝙎𝙄𝙄𝙇, 𝘼𝙉𝙂 𝘼𝙏𝙄𝙉 𝘼𝙔 𝙎𝘼 𝘼𝙏𝙄𝙉! ✊

Sa pagdiriwang ng ika-37 taon ng EDSA People Power Revolution, atin munang isantabi ang mga hidwaan ng mga kulay.

Atin muling buuin ang nawatak na pwersa ng mga Pilipino upang ipaglaban ang ating karapatan at kalayaan sa tumitinding suliranin ng bansa patungkol sa West Philippine Sea.

Dahas ma'y ginamit noong una, bulaklak ma'y naisaboy noong EDSA 1986, ngayong araw, gamitin natin ang kapangyarihan ng sosyal medya sa pagbabatingaw ng ating mga tinig ng pagkakaisa, hindi lang para sa ating mga isla sa West Philippine Sea, kundi para din sa mga kapwa nating naapi, na kamakailan ay tinutukan ng laser ng mga Chinese National.

Gamitin ang at sa inyong mga post sa iba't ibang plataporma ng sosyal media.

Tayo na't makiisa at muling magsama-sama na tumindig para sa ating bansa, at gisingin ang pwersa ng ating bayanihan.

Dahil ang atin ay sa atin, ang West Phililpine Sea ay atin at kailan ma'y 'di tayo pasisiil!

Tabunan National High School (TabNHS) pop quiz bet, Kristine Anne Ansale, lost to a coin toss with Cabucgayan National School of Arts and Trades (CNSAT) contender and landed as second runner-up in this year's edition of the Provincial Civil Registration Quiz Bee, February 21.

Both TabNHS and CNSAT gained a final score of 38 points, which requires a tie-breaker round for the first runner-up.

After the deadly match, the organizers decided to toss a coin to end the round. CNSAT won.

According to Oswald John Caro, Ansale's coach, the tie-breaker round was breathtaking as the two contenders showed no retreat after utilizing all the questions available.

In the end, the Naval School of Fisheries (NSF) was hailed as the champion with the final score of 39 points, leading only a point to CNSAT and TabNHS, the first and second runners-up, respectively.

"As a coach, I am very proud and happy [because], in the past three years, we remain to be part of the Top 3," he added.

The coach also told the press about his plan to be more assertive and motivated to work, especially in producing future winners.

All three winners will represent Biliran Division as a team in the Regional Civil Registration Quiz Bee. Details about it are yet to announce.

The rounds concluded at Naval Central School SPED Center Conference Hall with 25 official participants.

PSA-Biliran annually conducts a provincial quiz bee tilt for high school and college students as part of the annual national celebration of Civil Registration Month.
