BRISAY and its Legacy of Academic Achievement

I was invited to speak during the 15th Recognition Day Ceremony of BRSHS that took place on Monday, March 31, 2009 (sorry President Darwin; much as I would have liked to attend the graduation ceremony that afternoon, I couldn’t for I really had to catch up on some sleep).  While I was there, I learned all about the achievements of Bicol Regional Science High School.  You’ll be amazed at the awards and commendations that BRSHS has garnered through the years and the glory that BRSHS students have won for the school.  BRSHS really makes me proud.

Do you know, for instance, that BRSHS won first place among all 17 Regional Science High Schools in the country in the 1st National Science-Mathematics Summit for Regional Science High Schools that occurred from Feb 9 to 14 in Zamboanga City?

Yes, folks!  BRSHS ruled!!!! It won first place in both the students and teachers category.  Our school, which is gravely lacking in funding and facilities, has - against all odds - dominated the contest and routed the competition.  Aren’t you proud you are a Brisayeño?

Congratulations BRSHS students, teachers and, of course, Principal Ed Nañoz!  I’m sure all BRSHS alumni are very proud of you.  To read the full article about this event and other current BRSHS news, please visit brshs.depedligaocity.org.

On a personal note, I’d like to thank Mr. Nañoz, Mr. Peñaflor (who was not physically present but nevertheless made sure I was taken care of), Mrs. Maligaya, Ms. Rempis, Ms. Redita, Mr. Villamor, Mr. Pelgone, Ms. Llacer, and the rest of the BRSHS faculty, staff and students who have invited me to BRSHS and made me feel very welcome.  I had a really great time, and the food was fantastic! :)

To the BRSHS alumni, let me again appeal to your charitable instincts.  Our school badly needs your help.  Any kind of help will be very much appreciated.  Tew, I know, has some plans.  I think it’s great what you are planning to do, Tew! :)  I wish to chat to you about it sometime (not on Plurk probably as I don’t get to plurk much nowadays).

Once more, let’s congratulate BRSHS for a job well done.  Aim high, Brisay!!
