Farewell to a leader who championed education!

Our deepest condolences to the bereaved family of Gov. Dakila Carlo E. Cua. He led with his heart, leaving a meaningful mark on the lives of manyโ€”especially Quirinian learners whose dreams he championed and supported.

May his legacy of compassionate service continue to inspire. Rest in God's arms, our beloved Governor! ๐Ÿ™

Diffun National High School conducted an Earthquake and Fire Drill today, engaging learners, teachers, and personnel in a coordinated emergency response exercise.

The activity focused on strengthening the school communityโ€™s readiness to respond to earthquakes and fire emergencies through proper evacuation procedures, alertness, and calm decision-making.

More than a routine exercise, the drill served as a timely reminder that preparedness, discipline, and cooperation can help protect lives when emergencies occur.

At DNHS, safety is everyoneโ€™s responsibility.

INK-STAINED. BATTLE-TESTED. VICTORY-BOUND.

And then, the harvest came.

After days of weaving words, chasing ideas, and giving shape to stories, the Gentle Breeze scribes emerged from the recently concluded Division Schools Press Conference on Sept. 2-4, carrying in them the quiet proof of countless revisions, the courage to compete, and the determination to let every written word matter.

Their pens did not merely write storiesโ€”they planted them. And from those seeds grew moments of triumph, lessons etched in experience, and victories worthy of the pages they so passionately filled.

For every Gentle Breeze scribe written below, this harvest is a reminder that great stories are not simply writtenโ€”they are cultivated with courage, nurtured by perseverance, and brought to bloom through passion. You did not only write DNHS in your dreams, you aligned them to shine quality and excellence. Kudos to all of you:

The Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG) of Diffun National High School (DNHS) launched Project AGAP (Advocacy and Guidance for Adolescent Protection Against Illegal Drugs) for School Year 2026โ€“2027 to strengthen drug awareness and promote adolescent health among all learners.

The school-based initiative aims to prevent illegal drug use through awareness campaigns, health promotion, learner participation, leadership development, and collaboration with community stakeholders, highlighted by a drug symposium held at the DNHS quadrangle during the flag ceremony on August 17.

According to Police Master Sergeant Michael C. Doctor of PNP Diffun, they conduct monthly symposiums in schools where students may become more curious about illegal drugs.
โ€œMeron kaming monthly symposium in every schools lalong-lalo na sa mga high school students kasi doon mas nagiging curious sila regarding sa paggamit ng illegal drugs,โ€ Doctor said, emphasizing the importance of regularly educating adolescents about drug prevention.

Doctor added that the PNP also accepts invitations from schools to conduct additional lectures on illegal drugs beyond their regular monthly symposiums.

Philippine National Police identified Republic Act No. 9165, or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002, as one of the key laws discussed in its drug-awareness efforts.

SSLG Vice President Triztan Nera stated that AGAP goes beyond drug awareness by also promoting adolescent health and providing learners with information that can support healthier decisions.

โ€œProject AGAP is an initiative project of SSLG and BKB-C to minimize drug use, not only drug use, to spread information about drug awareness and not just about that but also about adolescent health,โ€ Nera said, highlighting the importance of youth wellness.

Doctor added that the PNP addresses the time limitation by focusing on essential information, including relevant laws, types of illegal drugs, and their classifications.

โ€œYung challenges namin dito binigyan kami ng at least five to 10 minutes, mahirap yung sabihin o i-elaborate kung ano talaga ang epekto ng illegal drugs, pero nagawan namin ng paraan,โ€ Doctor said, emphasizing their effort to make students understand important drug-related information despite the limited time.
In addition, Barkada Kontra Bisyo Council (BKB-C) President Jomaica Liyangna said the symposium was conducted during the flag ceremony to avoid disrupting regular classes.

Liyangna noted that the short lecture allowed students to receive information about illegal drugs without significantly affecting their classroom activities.

She also suggested that a longer discussion would be more effective because some students may not have enough time to fully understand the topics presented during the brief lectures.

Meanwhile, the BKB-C plans to extend its anti- illegal drug initiatives beyond the symposium through additional activities on future projects.

Diffun National High School formally honored Mr. Rogelio C. Subia Jr. in a send-off program as he prepares to assume his new position as School Head of Guribang Elementary School, recognizing his exemplary service and leadership before his transfer.

The program was attended by school and SPTA officials, teaching and non-teaching personnel, family members, and guests in a fitting tribute to Subia's contributions and his next milestone in educational leadership.

Former Principal Dr. Jennifer T. Tolentino described Mr. Subia as a calm and humble leader who consistently demonstrated integrity in carrying out his responsibilities, emphasizing that his servant leadership had earned the respect and admiration of the school community.

Newly installed Principal Dr. Erlito B. Madriaga commended Subia's admirable character, saying that his professionalism, dedication, and positive disposition make him a valuable asset to any school he serves.

NAPSSHI President Dr. Richard Subia, brother of the honoree, thanked the Diffun National High School family for helping mold his brother into the leader he is today and expressed confidence that he would continue making a meaningful impact in his new assignment.

Also, SPTA Daniphine Badua expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the honoree for his care, support, and commitment to the learners and parents, wishing him success as he takes on his new role.

The Mathematics department presented a symbolic tribute to the honoree as a gesture of gratitude and appreciation for his unwavering support, inspiring leadership, and enduring camaraderie throughout his years of service.

In his response, Subia expressed heartfelt appreciation to the school community for its trust, encouragement, and shared experiences, affirming his commitment to uphold the same values of humility, integrity, and dedicated public service as he begins his leadership journey at Guribang Elementary School.

The ceremony concluded with messages of gratitude, well wishes, and heartfelt farewells, and remarkable photo opportunity, highlighting the school community's confidence that Subia will continue to inspire excellence and servant leadership in his new role.
