My dear students,
I want to take this opportunity to close the first semester and bid you all farewell until next semester. I also want
to say thank you for the contribution that you all have made to the wellbeing of our classmates, individually and
as a group. To every student whose year or semester hasn’t gone as he/she planned maybe because of poor grades,
poor health, or damaged friendships, this is not the end of the road for you. You can work your way up to having a
great year when the school open next semester, and your instructors will be there to help you. No one gets to the
top in one quick swift. So, farewell to all of you. I’d like to ask that you please make good use of the break by
keeping up on your studies and academic skill. See you around mga anak, mahal ko kayo. __ Ma’am Queen Anne
