SAFETY FIRST! BFP-JONES TRAINS SCHOOL EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM (SERT) TO BOOST CAMPUS DISASTER READINESS
September 11, 2026— In a proactive bid to ensure the safety and security of students and school personnel, the school's administrative staff and teaching faculty successfully underwent an intensive School Emergency Response Team (SERT) training, equipping them with essential lifesaving and disaster mitigation skills.
The school community, led by School Principal Dr. Janet C. Colobong, actively engaged in both theoretical instruction and hands-on simulation drills designed to build immediate local capability during emergencies.
Under the expert guidance of the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) – Jones Chapter, the participants mastered key emergency protocols, including:
• Fire Classification & Dynamics
• Fire Extinguisher Operation
• First Aid & Bandaging
• Emergency Carries & Victim Transport
The comprehensive capacity-building activity was spearheaded by SFO2 Laarni D. Lauro, together with a dedicated team of fire personnel, FO3 Emerson G. Baturi, FO1 Mark Anthony F. Viloria, FO1 Jessica A. Raguindin, FO1 Marygrace C. Andal, FO1 Mark Lucio D. Argonza, and FO1 Dominic L. Calagui.
With a trained emergency response team now standing guard, the school reaffirms its commitment to creating a safe, resilient, and disaster-ready learning environment for everyone.
