Outstanding studes, educators in WV lauded
TEN students, a teacher, and a principal were inducted yesterday as winners of the Search for the Most Outstanding Students and Educators in Western Visayas of the Private Secondary School Administrators Association of the Philippines Wednesday, at Punta Villa Resort Crown Hall, Arevalo, Iloilo City.
For High School students, the Most Outstanding awardees were Jade Rojas of St. Joseph School of Iloilo, Victor Robinson III of Ateneo de Iloilo, Ability Ann Tacaisan of Colegio del Sagrado Corazon de Jesus, Seirralyn Jaranilla of Central Philippine University, and Emere Conanan of Pandan Bay Institute-Antique.
Declared Outstanding Students are Excel Cagay of Filamer Christian College, Peter Glenn Rapiz of Colegio de San Jose, Mark Gil GAtila of St. Michael's High School of Culasi, and Murphy Ryan Pe of St. Joseph Academy.
Two pupils were declared winners in the Elementary Department, namely Nadja Patricia Sauza (Most Outstanding) or Starglow Center for Academics and Arts and Alyanna Krista Fuego of Ateneo de Iloilo-Santa Maria Catholic School.
Engineer Herman Lagon of Ateneo de Iloilo was declared Most Outstanding Teacher while Dr. Erenita Labor of Kalibo, Aklan is the Most Outstanding Principal.
The "Most Outstanding" awardees received a plaque of recognition and P5,000 cash while the other "Outstanding" students brought home a plaque and P1,500 cash.
The search started early January with the passing of the applicants' portfolio. For weeks, these were scrutinized by a set of judges coming from Iloilo and Negros. The students and educators with the best record were invited for series of interview that was capped with a panel talk in Bacolod last January 28.
To note, the Most Outstanding Teacher, Engineer Lagon, will be endorsed by the PRISSAAP for the National Metrobank Search for Outstanding Teachers set this summer.
The awarding was witnessed by DepEd national, regional and division representatives, school administrators, students and parents of the winners, representing all the provinces in Region VI.
