Success at the Threshold — a gate of new possibilities: VCMC S.Y. 2024-2025

The events flowed smoothly with the help of the new faces of the SBO; with their tenacity and competency, they paved a way for a momentous day, whether it be behind the scenes or at the forefront. The duty of being student-leaders not only showcased their individual skills and talents, but also displayed that they can be team players.

The majority of the entire program was led by Dir. Anecito T. Sabong, LPT, the school principal. His welcoming poise and gentle aura opened an opportunity for the attendees to feel comfortable in the four corners of the Campus. Each word that came out of his mouth was informative and clear which produced amazing reviews from the evaluation forms. Moreover, the content of the slide presentations was carefully and deliberately worded out in an understanding manner.

There were also other speakers, Dir. Elsa Gojar, SHS guidance counselor, Dir. Roselyn Glovo, Head of the Research and Development, and Dir. Russel Marquez, Head of ICT, who provided the participants with additional information. Dir. Elsa Gojar explained the school policy meanwhile Dir. Roselyn opened new opportunities by stupendously explaining the different school programs and urged the listeners to join. While the latter part of the program explained the new and better version of LMS with a new feature; a section where students can view their attendance reports, which was introduced by Dir. Russel Marquez.

Furthermore, Bil Angelo V. Anicoche, the current SBO president, served as the emcee for both the opening and closing of the program. He formally began the sequence of events, showcasing the excellence of the SBO. He has shown tremendous amount of skill as the Vice President of S.Y. 2023-2024 so may the start of this school year uphold his consistent achievements, and may he continue to grow as a leader.

However, Bil wasn't the only one who showed his wondrous ability to speak at the podium; there was also the SBO Vice President, Floydwin Stefhan M. Paulo, who stood as a substitute in the absence of the President.
