🎒 EDUKAHON KITS: Tulungan Nating Maipagpatuloy ang Pag-aaral ng Ating mga Batang GenSan

Sa gitna ng pinsalang dulot ng malakas na lindol noong Hunyo 8, maraming mag-aaral ang nawalan hindi lamang ng tahanan at kapanatagan, kundi maging ng kanilang mga gamit sa paaralan. Marami ang napilitang lumikas at iniwan ang kanilang mga bag, aklat, kuwaderno, at iba pang mahahalagang kagamitan na nasira o hindi na nila mabalikan.

Ngunit sa kabila ng mga pagsubok, nananatiling buhay ang kanilang pangarap na makapag-aral.

Ngayon, tayo naman ang maaaring maging bahagi ng kanilang pagbangon.

Sa pamamagitan ng EduKahon Learner Kit, mabibigyan natin ang bawat batang naapektuhan ng pagkakataong makabalik sa pag-aaral nang may pag-asa at kumpiyansa. Ang bawat donasyong inyong ibibigay ay makatutulong upang mapalitan ang mga nawalang school supplies at matiyak na hindi mapuputol ang kanilang pagkatuto.

📚 Maaaring i-donate:

🎒 School Bags
📒 Notebooks at Writing Pad
✏️ Lapis, Ballpen, Crayons o Coloring Materials
📏 Ruler, Eraser, Sharpener, Scissors
🧼 Basic Hygiene Kit (Soap, Toothbrush, Toothpaste, Face Towel)

Ang bawat EduKahon Kit ay higit pa sa isang kahon ng school supplies. Ito ay simbolo ng pag-asa, malasakit, at paniniwalang ang edukasyon ay hindi dapat huminto, kahit sa gitna ng kalamidad.

Inaanyayahan namin ang aming mga stakeholders, alumni, pribadong sektor, organisasyon, civic groups, at lahat ng may pusong tumulong na maging katuwang sa misyong ito. Anuman ang halaga o dami ng inyong maibabahagi ay malaking hakbang upang maibalik ang ngiti at sigla ng ating mga mag-aaral.

Sama-sama nating ibalik ang pag-asa. Sama-sama nating itaguyod ang edukasyon.

💙 Maging bahagi ng paglalakbay ng isang bata pabalik sa pagkatuto. Mag-donate ng EduKahon Learner Kit ngayon.

📞 Para sa donasyon at mga katanungan:
0932-496-3007
0994-228-7923

Edukasyon ay hindi dapat maputol. Sa ating pagkakaisa, muling babangon ang bawat batang GenSan. 💙📚

𝗣𝗔𝗕𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗗 | Sa mundong hindi na bago ang bagyo, sunog, lindol, at iba pang sakuna, hindi natin maikakaila na unti-unti na rin tayong nababaon sa takot at pangamba. Sa bawat alerto, sa bawat balitang trahedya, may parte sa atin na unti-unting napapagod at nasasaktan—kahit tahimik lang.

Ngunit kahit wala ang mga kalamidad, may mga mabibigat na bagay pa rin tayong dinadala — bagay na hindi natin masabi-sabi, kaya kinikimkim na lamang sa sarili. Mga problemang galing sa buhay mismo—sa pamilya, sa pag-aaral, sa kinabukasan, sa puso at iba pa. Mga sugat na hindi nakikita pero tila tinik sa ating puso.

Henerals at New Societians, kung ikaw ay nakararanas nito ngayon, pakinggan mo ito: hindi ka nag-iisa at valid ang lahat ng nararamdaman mo. Kung nakararanas ka ng matinding kalungkutan, pagkabalisa, matinding pagod, at iba pa, huwag mong sarilinin. Okay lang humingi ng tulong. Maaari kang tumawag sa Mental Health Helpline ng District 9 upang makausap ang mga propesyonal na handang makinig at tumulong sa’yo.

💚DEPED GENSAN MENTAL HEALTH KALINGA 💚

​Earthquakes don't just shake the ground beneath us—they can also shake our peace of mind. It is completely normal to feel anxious, overwhelmed, or frightened after experiencing an earthquake.

​Remember, taking care of your mental well-being is just as important as ensuring your physical safety. Kalinga starts with oneself.

​Here are 8 Individual Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) Tips to help you navigate through these challenging times:

​1️⃣ Acknowledge Your Emotions – Understand that fear, anxiety, and shock are natural responses to a crisis. Be kind to yourself.

2️⃣ Practice Deep Breathing – Ground yourself by breathing in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth to calm your nervous system.

3️⃣ Maintain a Routine – As much as safely possible, stick to healthy meals, stay hydrated, and get adequate rest.

4️⃣ Connect with Loved Ones – Talk to your family, friends, or trusted people. Sharing your feelings provides comfort and strength.

5️⃣ Limit Negative Media Exposure – Take necessary breaks from social media and news. Stay informed through official updates, but avoid sensationalism and rumors.

6️⃣ Engage in Physical Activity – Try gentle stretching, walking, or light exercises to help relieve built-up physical tension.

7️⃣ Focus on What You Can Control – Concentrate on your immediate safety measures, preparing your disaster kits, and following official guidance rather than worrying about the unpredictable.

8️⃣ Seek Professional Help – If distress, flashbacks, or sleeplessness persist, do not hesitate to reach out to our guidance counselors, mental health professionals, or dedicated hotlines. Help is always available.

​Let us look out for one another, DepEd GenSan family. You are not alone in this journey toward healing and resilience. 🤝✨

𝘼𝙂-𝙏𝙀𝙆 | ‘Color-Tagging’ Building System isinagawa sa NSNHS matapos ang 7.8 magnitude na lindol

Matapos ang 7.8 magnitude na lindol na yumanig sa Mindanao noong Hunyo 8, 2026, pinangunahan ng Schools Division Office ng General Santos City at ng City Engineering Office ang inspeksiyon sa mga gusali ng paaralan noong Hunyo 9-10, 2026 upang masuri ang kanilang kalagayan. Kasunod nito, ipinatupad ang ‘color-tagging’ building system bilang bahagi ng pagsusuri sa kaligtasan ng mga pasilidad ng paaralan.

Ayon sa ATC-20 Post-Earthquake Safety Evaluation of Buildings, ang tagging system ay isang proseso kung saan sinusuri ng mga inhinyero at iba pang eksperto ang kondisyon ng mga gusali matapos ang isang sakuna, gaya ng lindol. Layunin nitong matukoy kung ligtas pa bang gamitin ang isang gusali o kung nangangailangan ito ng pagkukumpuni at mas masusing pagsusuri.

Ang Red Tag ay nangangahulugang hindi ligtas gamitin ang isang gusali dahil sa posibilidad ng malubhang pinsala sa istruktura nito. Ang mga gusaling may ganitong marka ay hindi dapat pasukin hangga't hindi natatapos ang kinakailangang inspeksiyon at rehabilitasyon. Batay sa isinagawang pagsusuri, kabilang sa mga gusaling nakatanggap ng Red Tag:
• Del Pilar building
• Lopez Jaena building
• Palma building
• Training Center

Samantala, ang Yellow Tag ay nangangahulugang may natukoy na pinsala sa gusali, ngunit maaari pa rin itong gamitin nang may pag-iingat. Gayunman, kinakailangan pa rin itong sumailalim sa karagdagang inspeksiyon at posibleng pagkukumpuni. Kabilang sa mga gusaling may Yellow Tag:
• Ponce building
• Rizal building
• Kwang Myung Gymnasium

Ang Green Tag naman ay inilalagay sa mga gusaling walang natukoy na seryosong pinsala at itinuturing na ligtas gamitin. Ang mga gusaling ito ay maaaring gamitin para sa normal na operasyon ng paaralan, subalit patuloy pa rin minomonitor ang mga istrukturang ito upang matiyak na nananatili silang ligtas gamitin. Ang mga sumusunod ang mga gusaling may Green T

𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗗𝗔𝗬 | Mabuhay! Today we honor the 128th Philippine Independence Day, remembering how our heroes chose courage over fear.

Disaster preparedness experts encourage every family to prepare and regularly update a Go Bag containing essential supplies that can sustain family members during the first few days of an emergency.

New Society National High School (NSNHS) officially opened the first day of classes through a flag ceremony led by the Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG) officers and volunteers at the school’s open field before a 7.8-magnitude earthquake later disrupted school activities.

Students and teachers gathered at the school field, displaying their section banners as they participated in the opening program for School Year 2026–2027.

During the ceremony, Hanena Epino, Ph.D. delivered a message encouraging learners to view the challenges of the school year as opportunities for growth and improvement.

The SSLG volunteers also presented a dance performance to the song “First Day High,” adding to the welcoming atmosphere of the opening program before the earthquake prompted the suspension of activities.
