In support of the observance of Dengue Awareness and Prevention Month, the Health Services Office (HSO) of Baguio City conducted an orientation and lecture on dengue prevention for the school community and misting activity on June 18, 2026 after classes.

The activity was facilitated by Rufino K. Madlon, Sanitation Inspector III, and Zach V. Flores, Sanitation Inspector III, of the Health Services Office (HSO), with the assistance of University of the Cordilleras Forensic Intern Students Carl Belade and Michael Bumatnong.

During the orientation, participants were introduced to the 4S Strategy of Dengue Prevention, namely: Search and Destroy mosquito breeding sites, Secure Self-Protection against mosquito bites, Seek Early Consultation when dengue symptoms appear, and Support Fogging/Misting activities in hotspot areas.

The resource speakers emphasized the importance of community participation in eliminating mosquito breeding grounds and maintaining a clean and healthy environment to prevent the spread of dengue.

Following the lecture, the HSO team demonstrated the proper operation and safety procedures in using a misting machine.

Following the successful conduct of the 2nd Quarter Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) on June 18, 2026, Adiwang Integrated School held a post-evaluation activity to assess the effectiveness of the drill and identify areas for improvement in the school's disaster preparedness efforts.

The evaluation was led by the school's partners from the Philippine National Police (PNP), Sir Angedan and Sir Manzano, together with UC Intern Russel Estigoy. Also present during the activity were parents, incoming and outgoing School Parents-Teachers Association (SPTA) officers, school personnel, and administrators, whose participation contributed valuable insights and recommendations.

During the discussion, the evaluators commended the school community for its active participation and orderly conduct throughout the drill. However, several areas for improvement were identified to further enhance the safety and preparedness of learners and personnel during emergency situations.

Among the recommendations raised were the following:

• Learners from the new building should be more alert and mindful in managing their time when proceeding to the designated evacuation area to ensure prompt and orderly movement.

• Upon arrival at the evacuation area, teachers should immediately conduct a count-off or attendance check. Learners whose sections are not yet complete should remain standing until all members have arrived or complete.

• During future earthquake drills, learners should adjust their positions and move farther backward in the evacuation area since the current location may still be exposed to potential hazards and risks.

• As much as possible, learners should be encouraged to carry whistles during emergencies to facilitate communication and signaling when assistance is needed.

• Grade-level placards should be visible and readily available during evacuations, as some sections were observed without proper identification markers.

In addition to the earthquake drill evaluation, the PNP partners expressed their willingness to conduct learner orientations focusing on discipline, proper behavior, and the prevention of gang and fraternity involvement. This initiative aims to strengthen awareness among learners and promote a safe and positive school environment.

The post-evaluation activity concluded with a shared commitment among school personnel, parents, community partners, and learners to continuously improve the school's emergency response mechanisms and ensure a safer learning environment for all.
