Dear Parents and Guardians,

Please be reminded that we are still currently implementing Blended Learning (online or digital learning activities). This is to ensure the continuity of learning while giving utmost consideration to the safety, welfare, and best interests of our students.

The information previously posted was shared for information dissemination and guidance. For the complete and official details regarding the implementation, please refer to the official memorandum, which remains the primary reference for the guidelines and provisions on Blended Learning.

We sincerely ask for your continued cooperation and support as we carry out this learning arrangement. Your partnership is essential in helping our learners remain engaged and supported throughout this period.

Thank you for your continued cooperation.

ANNOUNCEMENT: SHIFT TO BLENDED LEARNING MODALITY

Please be informed that, as recommended by the University Health Services, all classes will shift to a blended learning modality from August 18, 2026 to September 4, 2026 following the identification of few students with chickenpox.

This temporary arrangement is being implemented as a precautionary measure to help protect the health and well-being of our faculty, staff and students.

During this three-week period, all faculty members will observe a work-from-home setup and continue facilitating classes through appropriate online and blended learning platforms and all students will participate in blended learning for the duration of the three-week period. Please stay updated with your instructors regarding class schedules, learning activities, and submission requirements.

𝗪𝗶𝗸𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗼 𝗮𝘁 𝗔𝗜: 𝗞𝗮𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗸𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗮 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗸𝘀𝗶𝗸 𝗮𝘁 𝗧𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝗮 𝗬𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘀𝘆𝗼𝗻 🇵🇭

Taon-taon, ipinagdiriwang natin ang Buwan ng Wika, isang pagkakataon upang balikan ang kasaysayan ng ating pambansang wika at palakasin ang pagmamahal dito. Hindi lang ito simpleng paggunita sa kasaysayan; ito rin ay isang panawagan na patuloy itong gamitin at paunlarin sa makabagong bansa.

Ang ating tema ngayong taon na “𝐖𝐢𝐤𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐨 𝐚𝐭 𝐀𝐈: 𝐊𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐬𝐢𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐓𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐬𝐚 𝐘𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐲𝐨𝐧” ay nagpapakita kung paano nagtagpo ang wika at teknolohiya. Sa panahon ng artipisyal na katalinuhan (AI), hindi hadlang ang teknolohiya sa pagpapalaganap ng Filipino. Sa halip, naging tulay ito upang mas maging madali ang pananaliksik at pag-access sa napakaraming impormasyon.

Sa huli, dapat nating pahalagahan na ang paggamit ng AI ay hindi pagtalikod sa sariling wika. Sa ganitong paraan, ginagamit natin ang teknolohiya upang palawakin ang yamang impormasyon na ating natatamo.

LOOK | Extension Work Culmination at Leyte Regional Prison, Abuyog, Leyte

On July 10, 2026, our dedicated faculty members successfully conducted and participated in the Culmination Program of the extension project entitled, “Capacitating Trainers on Persons Deprived of Liberty with Basic Learning and Living Skills” at Leyte Regional Prison, Abuyog, Leyte, in partnership with the Bureau of Corrections.

The day began with a hands-on cooking session, where selected learners had the opportunity to develop practical culinary skills under the expert guidance of Dr. Lambert. The activity not only enhanced their knowledge and skills but also encouraged teamwork, creativity, and confidence among the participants.

In the afternoon, the program concluded with the delivery of inspirational messages, followed by an Awarding Ceremony recognizing the learners for their active participation, commitment, and achievements throughout the extension program. The faculty members, who served as experts, were also recognized for sharing their knowledge and facilitating meaningful hands-on activities.

The event was graced by the presence of dedicated correction and training officers led by Mr. Chito R. Turalde, Deputy Superintendent for Administration; CO2 Noli Ann C. Billo, Acting Deputy Superintendent for Reformation; and CO2 Reydante M. Ninofranco, Chief of the Education and Training Section of Leyte Regional Prison. Also present were the faculty members as experts, the learners, and the Head of the Department of Secondary Education, Dr. Christy M. Desades, whose presence and support greatly contributed to the success of the activity.

This culmination marks not only the completion of a program but also a celebration of the transformative power of education. The extension project commenced in June 2025 and concluded on July 10, 2026, with Dr. Hilda Pedrera and Ms. Mildred M. Siarez serving as project leaders.

We extend our sincere appreciation to the Bureau of Corrections administration, correction and training officers, faculty members, learners, and everyone who contributed to the success of this meaningful initiative.

Together, we continue to create opportunities for learning, empowerment, and hope.
