WHY DO TRADEANS ALWAYS SHOUT “MAXWEL”? 💛💚
Daghan nang nangutana nganong pirmi mahunong ang MSAT community sa usa ka pulong—MAXWEL—sa tanang cheer, rally, ug school events.

Kini tungod kay ang MAXWEL dili lang basta cheer.
Kini ang identidad sa MSAT.
Kini ang panawagan nga magpabilin ang Tradeans nga lig-on, maayong batasan, ug andam moatubang sa modernong kalibutan nga puno sa social media pressures ug daghang distractor.

Here’s the true meaning of MAXWEL:

M – Masinabtanon

Ang MSAT nagmugna og masinabtanon nga estudyante — kabalo mosabot sa isig-kauban, matinabangon, ug dunay respeto sa ilang kaugalingon ug uban.

A – Andam Responsable

Ginatudluan ang mga estudyante nga mahimong andam ug responsable sa ilang mga buhat, desisyon, ug buluhaton. Kabalo mosalo sa katungdanan.

X – eXelente

Gina-pangandoy sa MSAT ang ka-excellence — dili lang sa patigayon o kompetisyon, pero labaw sa batasan, disiplina, ug pagpakabana.

W – Wais

Gina-ugmad ang pagka wais sa estudyante — maalamon sa pagdesisyon, kabalo mo-prioritize, ug kabalo mo-balanse sa tungha, talento, ug kinabuhi.

E – Empowered (Giyahan ug Gahinan)

Tungod sa nagkalain-laing proyekto ug adbokasiya, ang mga estudyante mahimong empowered — giyahan ug gahinan nga mahimong masaligan, confident, ug andam mo-tabang sa komunidad.

L – Lider

Ang MSAT nagatubo og mga lider — batan-ong aduna’y kasing-kasing sa pag-alagad, paggiya sa kauban, ug pagdala sa diwa nga
“Walay batang mabiyaan, sabay-sabay paingon sa damgo.”

⸻

Mao ng sa MSAT, ang “MAXWEL” dili lang tingog—kultura kini.
Usa ka paalaala sa tanan nga Tradeans nga bisan unsay uso sa kalibutan, magpabilin sila nga maayo, responsible, ug adunay baruganan.

💛💚 MSAT MAXWEL! 💛💚

MSAT Dayaw Teen Center Earns Level 2 Adolescent-Friendly Facility Award

Mati School of Arts and Trades (MSAT) once again proved its strong commitment to promoting adolescent health and mental well-being after the MSAT Dayaw Teen Center was recognized as a Level 2 Adolescent-Friendly Facility.

The teen center proudly received two major awards—one from the Department of Health Regional Office and another from the DepEd Region XI Office. These recognitions highlight the center’s dedication in creating a safe, supportive, and health-focused environment for young people.

Mrs. Jocelyn T. Olandria was also honored for being at the forefront of MSAT’s adolescent health advocacy. She was recognized for her excellent best practices and her outstanding service as the focal person and Registered Guidance Counselor of the Dayaw Teen Center.

School Principal Mr. Jorisam B. Rojas likewise received a citation for his unwavering support to all the programs and activities of the center, proving that strong leadership plays a big role in the success of youth-focused initiatives.

The Dayaw Teen Center remains committed to offering meaningful services to all students—promoting mental health awareness, healthy lifestyles, responsible decision-making, and a culture where no youth is left behind. With these new recognitions, the center aims to continue expanding its advocacies for a healthier, more empowered MSAT community.

!!!!! ATTENTION ALUMNI !!!

We are calling on all MSAT alumni to support our Drum and Lyre Corps as they compete this coming Friday in the Ritmo Drum and Lyre Competition. This is the first time in a long while that our school is taking a big leap into the performing arts scene, and we are excited to show what MSAT can do.

Right now, we still need monetary support for costumes, props, and musical instruments. Your generous help will bring us closer to our goal and prove that MSAT is not only strong in technical and vocational skills, but can also shine brightly in the performing arts.

We will be having our Show-Off Performance/Dress Rehearsal on December 3, 2025 at 6 PM. We will be inviting the parents of the performers and our sponsors. You will have the chance to get a glimpse of the performance before the main event on December 5 at Mati Park and Baywalk.

Any amount is deeply appreciated. Together, let’s lift MSAT and our young performers.
