Our annual “𝐁𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤” became more than just an activity—it became a space filled with courage to try something new, sweet messages on the freedom wall 💭, shared laughter at the photobooth 📸, and simple joys over FREE candies 🍬.

We’re deeply grateful for your support and for celebrating the love of reading with us. 📖💕

[𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐒] 𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐂 𝐄𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑’𝐒 𝐃𝐀𝐘!

On January 28, 2026, we celebrated Catholic Educator's Day, a heartwarming occasion dedicated to honoring our second parents and the found family who guided us every day.

We shared a day filled with laughter and enjoyment to show our gratitude to all Executives, Faculties, Personnel, Maintenance, Technical Development Services (TDEVs), and our ever-reliable school guards. It was a privilege to acknowledge their tireless sacrifices and show how much we cherish their hard work; by making it truly their day, we created lasting memories that reminded every students of the love we hold for those who build our future.💙✨

Last January 7, 2025, we officially closed the chapter on our 𝟵𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸, and what a meaningful journey it was. Guided by this year’s theme, “𝙏𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙮 𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙥𝙖𝙜𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙖 𝙨𝙖 𝙗𝙪𝙠𝙖𝙨 𝙣𝙖 𝙥𝙪𝙣𝙤 𝙣𝙜 𝙥𝙖𝙜-𝙖𝙨𝙖,” we were reminded that reading is more than a habit—it is a bridge that connects us to hope, growth, and a brighter tomorrow.

One of the highlights of the program was the insightful talk of our guest speaker, 𝐌𝐫. 𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐌. 𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐨, 𝐑𝐋, who gave us a much-needed system update through his discussion, “𝘾𝙏𝙍𝙇+ 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙩: 𝙉𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙊𝙣𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙡𝙮.” With his words, our sense of digital responsibility and citizenship was truly leveled up.

This celebration wouldn’t have been possible without the amazing people behind it. Huge thanks to our students for bringing so much energy, creativity, and love for reading; to the UIC-LRSC staff for always being there and making everything run smoothly; and to the Bibliophile Club for the hard work, dedication, and heart you put into every detail. You are truly the heart of this celebration, and we couldn’t have done this without you.

Though this chapter has ended, the story continues. Keep dreaming, keep imagining, and most of all—keep reading.📖✨
