IN PHOTOS: To foster collaboration between the school and parent community in combatting learning crisis, Baras - Baras High School Language Department held an orientation this morning at the Junior High School campus.

Topics on the status of the reading skills of the learners were the highlight of the event as it was attended by parents and guardians of students under the frustration level and those who were tagged as non-decoders. The parents and the guardians’ role were stressed as their participation in building a habit of reading and improving their children’s literacy is a three-way relationship among them, the students, and the school.

School Head Dr. Mamerto L. Ragel, Jr and School Governance Council Vice-Chair, Ma’am Roussel P. Palmaria supervised the said orientation which was facilitated by Reading Chairperson, Ma’am Carmela Huna-Sumaoang. Alongside her are language teachers in English and Filipino, Ma’am Fides Bondoc and Ma’am Lea Joy Tabaquero.

This initiative is a mandate of the Project RESCUE 2.0 which is the Tarlac City Schools Division’s answer to combatting learning poverty in the field of reading skills.

The Sentinel wishes a happy birthday to one of our new staffers, Ms. Yuri Elcah Garcia!

A breath of fresh air and is always on-the-go with publication affairs, we are blessed to have you as an addition to our roster!
Yuri excels in logistics matters and is a budding powerhouse in technical work. We are looking forward to working with you as presscon season begins!

We hope you enjoy your day, Yuri!

Adviser's note: There's always a first time for everything. Sometimes, we need to let go of the familiar for us to move on and do even bigger things -- the hard part is it always hurts. Growing hurts. As you celebrate another year of existence, I hope you don't get tired of embracing the hurt when it comes.

The Sentinel wishes a happy birthday to one of our correspondents, Ms. Alexzandra Zhain Tampus!

Leadership is not always loud. A sentence that can sum up Ms. Alex's role as one of the pillars of her class. A typical quiet student but once you talk to her, she'll take you to her deep insights of the world -- things she must have picked up from the books she has read.

We hope you enjoyed your day, Alex!

Adviser's note: You have come a long way from the kid I encouraged to continue. I hope I'm still living up to my promise to you. Happy birthday.


16/08/2024

The Sentinel wishes a happy birthday to one of our correspondents, Mr. John Aaron P. Rigor!

Having been discovered for the timbre of his voice and became our anchor in the publication's first stint in Radio Broadcasting, he has now become a regular in our "after pub" chikahans. Always welcoming new members and participating in get-togethers with gusto.

The irony of it all is that while he has the timbre of a great warrior, Aaron seem timid the first time we discovered him. But we believe he has more to offer our small family and now that little by little, he is discovering his voice (pun intended), we are excited to see it unleashed in the coming days as our next term begins.

We hope you enjoyed your day, Aaron!

Adviser's note: My heart smiles when I see a reaction from you whenever I mention something of interest during lectures . By now, you have come a long way from that quiet kid I discovered last year. Now, you're more comfortable and more confident that someone also takes interest to what's on your mind. And with the fire that you have now within you, I hope this next term, I see more practice of regulation. Learn to stay calm. I know that you do your best work when you're calm and in control. Happy birthday.
