STEM 11 Chronicles

A heartfelt message for all of our grade 12 teachers, crafted by STEM 11 (Reiwil)

STEM 11 — what a ride it has been.

From the moment we entered this section, we already knew we were different. Not because we were perfect, but because we were real. Chaotic, loud, dramatic, sometimes problematic—but always, always united in the most unexpected and beautiful way.

We’ve had our fair share of storms. Inner turmoils that not everyone saw. Silent battles fought behind smiles. The retreat that brought raw emotions to the surface. The confrontations that forced us to be honest. But despite everything—we stayed. We embraced one another not just as classmates, but as friends. As a family. As STEM 11.

We’re far from flawless. We’ve made mistakes. We’ve had moments of doubt, misunderstandings, and missed deadlines. But all of that? It helped us grow. Our imperfections brought us closer, made us kinder, and reminded us that it’s okay to fall—as long as we rise together.

We survived the brutal loadworks, the countless sleepless nights, the groupings that tested our patience, the research that drained our energy. But guess what? We pulled through. Together. Laughing, crying, ranting in between, and still managing to pass everything—even when we thought we couldn’t.

This chapter ends here—but the bond we built doesn’t. Wherever life takes us, may we remember the chaos, the comfort, and the courage we found in STEM 11. May each of us succeed in our own way, in our own path, with the memories of this journey close to our hearts.

Congratulations, STEM 11. We didn’t just survive—we made it worth it.

PASADONG MIDTERMS CUTIE!! 🫶🏻✨🙏🏻

It’s that time again! The midterm examination of the second semester is here. This is our chance to showcase our understanding and prove how much we have grown throughout our learning journey.

Let go of the resistance within you—laziness, and procrastination. Like the electric current, let your will to succeed flow with high voltage of motivation. The more energy you put into studying and reviewing, the more successful your scores will be. Remember, don't increase your anger issues and hot-headedness because temperature increases resistance, bursting up your head.

As we tackle our exams, let us apply what we have learned in Media and Information Literacy. Just like how we analyze technical codes in media, we must think critically, break down complex questions, and interpret their deeper meanings. Let’s not just memorize but truly understand, making connections that allow us to answer with clarity and confidence.

Let us answer each question with sincerity and humility, just as Saint Augustine lived his life in the pursuit of wisdom and truth when he read Cicero's work, Hortensius. We should not be afraid to acknowledge what we do not know while striving to understand more.

Weak intermolecular forces like London forces lead to easy separation—just like half-hearted effort leads to weak understanding. But strong forces like intramolecular forces, binds our confidence and perseverance together.

No matter what the outcomes is, thank yourself for surviving, for holding on, and for growing!

"ayaw ko na" "pagod na ako" "tama na kaya?"

Even if these words came out of our mouths and thoughts, we were able to push through this semester! Failure does not mean that we can't try again, that we will always be below the others but it will rather help us to learn from it.

Padayon students! Be proud of what we became and what we survived. "Fall down seven times, stand up eight"

𝑷𝑨𝑺𝑨𝑫𝑶𝑵𝑮 𝑭𝑰𝑵𝑨𝑳𝑺 𝑪𝑼𝑻𝑰𝑬!! 🥰🫶🏻

We’ve reached the half of the school year’s unit circle, every moment counts as we prepare for the exams ahead! 🎉

Let us apply the lessons in Theology 3. The Eighth Commandment, “You shall not bear false witness,” reminds us to uphold honesty—not just in words but also in our actions, encouraging us not to cheat in the exam.

Moreover, let’s not forget the Tenth Commandment, "You shall not covet your neighbor's goods," avoid jealousy over others’ scores because each of us have our own potential and envy hinders our growth. 🫶🏻

Newton’s Third Law teaches us "that every action has an equal and opposite reaction." If being carefree seems the best choice, then remember, it will have profound consequences on our scores and grades. 👾

Instead, let the First Law of Motion inspire us by letting the exam be the external force pushing us in our state of rest and review on motion. 🕯️

In philosophy, we learned that libertarianism teaches us that we have the freedom to make choices, including the power to ace the exams through determination and hard work. 💝

On the other hand, determinism reminds us that our scores are shaped by prior actions—like reviewing the exam to get high scores. So let’s use our freedom to review and do well on the upcoming final examination. 🧠

In Replektibong Sanaysay, we learn the value of reflecting on lessons deeply. By understanding the context and meaning of what we study, we not only know but understand the content of the lesson. 😌

Julio Cortázar’s Hopscotch shows us the power of creativity and strategy. Just like its nonlinear narrative, we can “hop” through topics strategically when reviewing. Do not memorize every content, instead, understand the content and focus on areas of improvement. 🤝

Formalism encourages us to focus on the structure—just like how we analyze questions or situations in exams. Break things down, study the details, and answer confidently. 🧠

Good luck, everyone! Remember, exams are not just about what you know but about how you grow. Let’s face this challenge with courage, honesty, and determination—success is within our grasp! 🫶🏻

The terminal angle from our unit circle has now rotated 90°!! 📐

The midterms have been short yet filled with valuable experiences; each student has shown significant development in the fields of morality, spirituality, and academics. Each demonstrated mastery and creativity on different activities and performance tasks, which allowed them to perform better in class. Moreover, STEM 11 is now finally united, the tensed atmosphere from the past has fully vanished, and it is now a section filled with cooperative students. 💕

Here are the lists of students whose fruits of hard work and excellence have been cultivated and reaped! They showed outstanding performances all throughout various learning areas and demonstrated mastery in different subjects. It is so heartwarming to see that the number of achievers has increased since grade eleven! 🫶🏻

Remember, achiever or not, always be proud of yourself; everyone has significantly improved during the midterms. It's still not too late to bounce back and achieve our goals; all we need is to never give up and exert more effort in the tasks. If the condition has been met, all the effort we exerted will blossom into an enchanting result that we'll always be proud of! 🌸 Congratulations, everyone! Let's all be proud of ourselves! 🥰🎉
