GENERAL
INFORMATION
BRIEF HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL

One of the problems of the educational system today is the continuous growth of student
population in the classroom, especially in the Metro Manila area. For this reason, the Schools Division
Office of Marikina responded to the call of Department of Education Secretary Bro. Armin Luistro and
planned for the implementation of Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) especially to secondary schools
that lack classrooms. After a thorough study, e-learning was created.

eLearning, as proposed by Mr. Joseph T. Santos, is a modern and effective method of


teaching and learning process. It is one of the Alternative Delivery Modes offered by the Schools
Division of Marikina to provide an option for learners in availing educational services. With the theme,
“Creating Better Opportunities for Learners and Teachers through ICT,” the program focuses on
giving the students quality education anytime, anywhere via Electronic Learning.

In the first year of implementation (SY 2013-2014), the eLearning program was piloted only
to Grade 7 students in four secondary schools in Marikina namely Marikina Science High School,
Tañong High School, Parang High School and Fortune High School.

After realizing that a better environment and facilities have to be provided, the Division
Office of Marikina, through the initiative of Mr. Joseph T. Santos, recommended to the
Superintendent, Dr. Elizabeth E. Quesada, to open Jesus Dela Peña National High School as
Center for eLearning.

Jesus Dela Peña National High School w as established through the effort of the
Honorable Mayor Marcelino R. Teodoro, w ho w as then a Congressman. He authored a bill
creating a high school in Barangay Jesus Dela Peña which was approved on July 23, 2012, known as
Republic Act No. 10216.

The school was first administered by Mrs. Imelda V. Olvida, who was then a newcomer in
the field of school governance. Nevertheless, her leadership record as a former head of Mathematics
Department in Parang High School and academic achievements qualified her for the position. She was
assisted by Dr. Elizalde Q. Cena, Chief of Schools Governance and Operation Division to ensure
success of the school operation. During this year, SY 2014-2015, JPDNHS was sharing school facilities
such as classrooms, chairs, tables and the like with Leodegario Victorino Elementary School. Due to
lack of facilities, JDPNHS only opened two Grade levels – Grades 7 and 8. eLearners from four
eLearning pilot schools transferred to JPDNHS plus other students from different barangays in
Marikina also enrolled in the school. A total of five-hundred thirty-one (531) students enrolled at Jesus
Dela Peña National High School. The teaching staff was only composed of fifteen (15) members, yet,
everybody was competent and equipped enough to implement the program.

The following year, SY 2015-2016, the school was headed by Mrs. Mita A. Abergos. It was
very challenging on her part because she handled two schools at the same time – Barangka NHS and
Jesus Dela Peña NHS. Nevertheless, with her leadership capabilities, the school had improved
particularly in terms of school equipment and facilities. Computer laboratories were renovated,
additional internet connection, tables and chairs were provided.

1
On the third year of school operation up to present, the school is headed by Mr. Joseph T.
Santos, Educational P rogram Supervisor in Technology and Livelihood Education and the
main proponent of eLearning program.

Considerably, JDPNHS is about to reach its summit because of series of achievements and
improvements that are being put into effect under his leadership. The faculty and staff were
organized and different offices were created such as Registrar/Records, Prefect of Discipline and
Guidance Advocates. Add to this, two new functional and well-maintained buildings were constructed,
various service centers were established such as E-Learning Resources Center, Conference Area,
Clinic, Science Laboratory, Computer and Animation Rooms, Cafeteria and many others. Academically,
JDPNHS is usually on the high ranks in terms of mean percentage performance. Its flagship
program - eLearning is continuously being improved. Continuous review validation of digitized
material and capacity building seminar for teachers are being conducted. Different stakeholders in the
field are continuously coming in. In fact, through its Korean partners, Ubiquitous Online Assessment
was conducted among Grade 7 students which is the FIRST in the history of basic public education.

Furthermore, it was also during the school year 2016-2017 that JDPNHS opened its doors to
Senior High School students. The two courses it offers are in line with ICT track namely Computer
Programming and Animation. Currently, it has six (6) SHS teachers teaching full-time.

Indeed, amidst challenges, Jesus Dela Peña National High School and its flagship
program - eLearning, is continuously soaring high. The school will always be true to its mission and
vision for the welfare of the society and for God’s greater glory.

VISION

Jesus Dela Peña National High School, envisions itself as a secondary school and center for eLearning
in the city where learners are functionally literate, life-long learners and imbued with the desirable
values of a person who is God-fearing, patriot, servant-learner, humble and globally competitive.

MISSION

The school shall equip all learners with knowledge and skills, good character, discipline, good taste
and excellence necessary for active and successful participation in a humane and fast-changing
society with the help of Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

PHILOSOPHY

We believe that students are persons endowed with faculties that enable them to be responsible and
active learners; that students are diverse individuals with their own culture, family background, age,
gender, unique personality and talents; that the school should endeavor to provide integral and
holistic education that promotes the fullest development of their human potentials; in the importance
of working collaboratively with parents and other stakeholders in raising youth who are God-fearing,
nationalistic, servant-leader, humble, disciplined, excellent, and globally competitive.

CORE VALUES

The core values of JDPNHS are aligned not only with the values promoted in the city but the
Department of Education as well. We believe and commit to develop these values.
2
Core values of Marikina City

 Discipline - the exercise of freedom within restraints and performing responsibility in


living a life of virtues
 Good Taste - means good or discerning judgement, especially with regard to what is
aesthetically pleasing, fashionable, polite and socially appropriate
 Excellence - refers to a talent or quality beyond ordinary standards both in technical and
moral aspects;

SCHOOL LOGO

The school emblem is rich in meaning. First, we can find at the center of the logo the letter
“e” which stands for eLearning, the flagship program of JDPNHS. Second, the gear, which signifies
technological proficiency and the torch which serves as a guide towards the attainment of the
necessary knowledge and skills. Furthermore, the book serves as the fountain of knowledge that the
school could offer to the students and the terms character, discipline, good taste and excellence
surrounding the book are the core values that the institution upholds. Lastly, the Marikina Valley
shows the location of the school and the 16 sun rays connote that the school accommodates all
learners from different parts of Marikina.

Senior High School

A. Rationale

The Senior High School (SHS) program of the Department of Education (DepEd) with its
underlying theme; “High School to Higher School, Abot Kamay na ang trabaho
Pagka-graduate!” enables the learners to prepare for college and career path they really
want toto address and pursue.

10
It is made up of two (2) years of specialized upper secondary education (Grade 11
and Grade 12).

The learners get to choose the specialization they really want to learn based on their
interest, aptitude, and capacity of the school where they want to enroll in.

The SHS curriculum ensures that each graduate of K-12 will be equipped and confident
to take the next path that lies after high school, whether it is higher education (College),
employment, middle level skills and entrepreneurship.

Senior High School Program prepares our learners to:


- Higher Education
- Employment
- Middle level skills
- Entrepreneurship

B. Course Offerings

1. Animation
This advanced course is designed to provide students with an opportunity to
continue building up their portfolio of digital work by focusing on the further study
and exploration of computer animation. Students will increase their knowledge of
the process of animation from initial concept and storyboarding through final
rendering by using animation software and studying both traditional and digital
animation techniques.

2. Computer Programming
This program of study is directed toward developing problem-solving skills. In
conjunction with understanding computers and computer systems, problem-solving
skills can enable our graduates to apply their knowledge in finding solutions to
problems that arise in the science, business, government, and education sectors of
employment. The objectives of the program are to provide a solid foundation of
knowledge about computers and to facilitate thinking that will permit continuing
growth on the part of the graduates. In the course of their study our students may
learn several programming languages, database design and administration, and
programming for the Internet. Typically our graduates may be employed in
entry-level positions as Web developers or as computer programmers.

C. Subject Areas Offered and Criteria for Grading per Subject (Based On DepEd
Order No. 8, S. 2015)

1. Subject areas offered in Senior High School vary based on the track the

PHILIPPINE NATIONAL ANTHEM

Bayang magiliw
Perlas ng Silanganan,
Alab ng puso,
Sa dibdib mo'y buhay.

Lupang Hinirang,
Duyan ka ng magiting,
Sa manlulupig,
Di ka pasisiil.

Sa dagat at bundok,
Sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw,
May dilag ang tula
At awit sa paglayang minamahal.

Ang kislap ng watawat mo'y


Tagumpay na nagniningning,
Ang bituin at araw niya
Kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim.

Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati't pagsinta,


Buhay ay langit sa piling mo.
Aming ligaya, na pag may mang-aapi
Ang mamatay nang dahil sa iyo.

ASEAN WAY

Raise our flag high, sky high


Embrace the pride in our heart
ASEAN we are bonded as one
Look-in out-ward to the world.
For peace, our goal from
the very start
And prosperity to last.

We dare to dream we care to share.


Together for ASEAN
we dare to dream,
we care to share for it's the
way of ASEAN.
PANUNUMPA SA WATAWAT

Ako ay Pilipino, buong katapatang


Nanunumpa sa watawat ng Pilipinas
at sa bansang kanyang sinasagisag
Na may dangal, katarungan at kalayaan
na pinakikilos ng sambayanang
maka-Diyos, makakalikasan,
Makatao at makabansa

PANATANG MAKABAYAN

Iniibig ko ang Pilipinas,


aking lupang sinilangan,
tahanan ng aking lahi;
kinukupkop ako at tinutulungang
maging malakas, masipag, at marangal.
Dahil mahal ko ang Pilipinas,
diringgin ko ang payo ng aking magulang,
susundin ko ang tuntunin ng paaralan,
tutuparin ko ang tungkulin ng mamamayang makabayan;
naglilingkod, nag-aaral, at nagdarasal
nang buong katapatan.
Iaalay ko ang aking buhay, pangarap, pagsisikap
sa bansang Pilipinas.
