“Isa, dalawa, tatlo… hindi na kayo ang kaklase ko.” 🥹🎓

From shared classrooms to shared memories, the IMPACT 3rd Council Seniors now take their final bow—ready to step beyond the walls that once brought them together.

Hindi man na kayo magkaklase, dala ninyo ang samahan, tawanan, at mga aral na hinding-hindi mabubura. 💙✨

This isn’t goodbye—it’s a celebration of everything you’ve been and everything you’re about to become.

Padayon, seniors! 🌟

𝐿𝑒𝒶𝒹𝑒𝓇𝓈𝒽𝒾𝓅. 𝒮𝑒𝓇𝓋𝒾𝒸𝑒. 𝐸𝓍𝒸𝑒𝓁𝓁𝑒𝓃𝒸𝑒.

Behind every successful event, project, and memory is an organization filled with passionate students. On April 17, 2026, the UCLM Senior High School department held a recognition ceremony celebrating the efforts of our Supreme Student Council and the following sub-organizations: Ang Silakbo, IGNITE, FYI, IMPACT, LIFT, ARIES, and CARES.

Despite each and every one's differences, we worked together and overcame obstacles, highlighting our core values in ICARE—Camaraderie and Alignment. Not only that, we have fulfilled and followed through with duties, serving with Excellence.

This event highlights the efforts that our officers have put into making our school year an enjoyable one. It is also a reminder that one’s hard work will never go unnoticed. As this chapter comes to an end, may the lessons and struggles of yesterday carry wisdom as we pave a path for tomorrow’s new story.

Thank you to all our officers for their dedication and commitment. Your leadership, passion, and tireless efforts have made a lasting impact on our school community.🩷🌟

Ipinagdiriwang natin ang Araw ng Kagitingan bilang pag-alala sa kabayanihan ng mga Pilipinong lumaban para sa ating kalayaan. Nawa’y maging paalala ito na ang tunay na kagitingan ay makikita sa pagmamahal sa bayan at paglilingkod sa kapwa. 🇵🇭✨

HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY! 🌼💛

He is risen! Today, we celebrate the victory of life over death and light over darkness. Easter Sunday is not just the end of Holy Week, it is the beginning of renewed faith, stronger hope, and a love that never fails.🌷

From the sacrifice of the cross to the glory of the Resurrection, we are reminded that no struggle is greater than His power, and no night is too dark for His light to overcome.

Let this day ignite our hearts, lift our spirits, and remind us that with Him, we rise again stronger, braver, and full of purpose. ✝️

Happy Easter Sunday, everyone! ✨💛

As we observe this Holy Week, may we take this time to pause from our daily routines and reflect on the values of faith, sacrifice, humility, and love. May this sacred season remind us to show compassion, practice forgiveness, and strengthen our spiritual connection.

Let this also be a time for our community to unite in prayer and reflection as we continue to grow not only in knowledge, but also in character and faith. May this Holy Week inspire us to become better individuals for others and for God. 🙏✨✝️

We entered this year full of questions and doubts, but look—we made it to the end of the tunnel. 🌟

On March 27, 2026, the Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) students gathered for a special year-end celebration to look back on what this academic year gave us. Through fun, mind-boggling games and heartfelt reflection, the event was a success. Wide smiles and laughter filled the venue.

Even though this year had its imperfections, we learned to embrace the difficulties and mold them into lessons. From challenging examinations to contests, we conquered them together as one strand. Divided by walls, yet united by the spirit of being Humanistas.

As we close this chapter, let us carry forward the courage and camaraderie we found in one another. Carpe diem, Humanista. 🩷

On March 17, UCLM was honored to welcome visitors from UEDA, Japan for a meaningful and memorable cultural exchange experience! 🇵🇭🇯🇵✨

Through the WAKU Program, the UCLM–UEDA collaboration took place at the Old AVR, where students actively participated in hands-on activities, interactive games, and creative booth presentations. Despite the differences in culture and the challenges of a language barrier, these became opportunities rather than obstacles, allowing everyone to build friendships, share traditions, and learn from one another. Over the course of five unforgettable days, the program became a true celebration of friendship, cultural understanding, and global camaraderie. ✨

As the exchange came to a close, the memories created will surely remain in the hearts of everyone involved 💭✨. さようなら、また会いましょう — Goodbye, and see you again! 👋🇯🇵🌸

Being a woman is to carry dignity with elegance, courage, and pride in every step of the journey we have fought to fulfill. Our stories are shaped by a journey full of endeavor, yet determined by resilience. Our voice is powerful, and our presence makes a difference in more ways than we know.

This International Women's Month, we stand proud in our identity. Not only we stand as women, but as voices of bravery, clarity, and compassion. Let this celebration remind us that empowering women is not just a one-month advocacy—it is a lifelong commitment, wherein we uplift one another and rise together as one. ✨🩷
