π—Ÿπ—’π—’π—ž | The Pinning and Candle Lighting Ceremony was held at the VSUA Gymnasium on September 04, 2026, to officially recognize qualified education students from the BEED and BSEd programs in Science and Math as teaching interns.

Mr. Erik Terora, an alumnus of VSUA, the guest speaker of the ceremony, shared a meaningful message that he wanted all interns to carry with them: the PINNING, which stands for Passion for teaching, Integrity in service, Nurturing every learner, Never give up, Inspiring young minds, Navigating challenges with courage, and Growing into a great educator.

β€œDo not simply enter the classroom because you are required to complete your teaching internship, but because you have purpose… and let your passion remind you that you are not simply preparing lessons; you are preparing possibilities,” Mr. Terora said.

This was followed by the candle lighting, pinning rites, oath-taking, the batch message from Mr. Carl Jhon Abala, a BSEd Math student, and the senior class song.

– Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr.

Today, August 21, we observe Ninoy Aquino Day in solemn remembrance of Senator Benigno β€œNinoy” Aquino Jr.

Senator Aquino was a statesman, journalist, and opposition leader who stood for democracy during Martial Law. On this day in 1983, he returned to the Philippines from exile and was assassinated at the Manila International Airport. His death became a turning point that contributed to the restoration of democratic institutions in the country.

His declaration that β€œThe Filipino is worth dying for,” continues to serve as a reminder of the value of public service, civic responsibility, and national unity.

As we commemorate this day, may we honor his legacy by upholding the principles of democracy, truth, and integrity in our schools, workplaces, and communities.

π—Ÿπ—’π—’π—ž | August 20, 2026, fourth-year students under the Faculty of Teacher Education attended the Seminar on Self-Management and Receptive Teaching (SMART) at the Gymnasium in preparation for their upcoming teaching internship.

The seminar aimed to equip future teachers with essential knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed to navigate their teaching internship experience, particularly in managing themselves professionally and becoming receptive to guidance and feedback from their cooperating teachers and Teacher-In-Charge supervisors.

The program featured several discussions on key aspects of the teaching internship, including the rationale of the seminar, introduction and roles of Teaching Internship (TI) Supervisors, Pre-Deployment Guidelines, While-Internship Guidelines, and Post-Teaching Internship Requirements to prepare senior education students for their internship and help them become responsible, reflective, and professional future educators.

π—§π—œπ—‘π—šπ—‘π—”π—‘ | Idinaos noong Agosto 19 sa VSU-A Grounds ang taunang pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika, na nilahukan ng mga mag-aaral mula sa iba't ibang seksiyon ng Department of Teacher Education, sa pangunguna ni Gng. Naide Lantajo.

Sa temang "Wikang Filipino at AI: Kasangkapan sa Pananaliksik at Tulay sa Yaman ng Impormasyon," binigyang-diin ng selebrasyon ang kahalagahan ng paggamit ng makabagong teknolohiya upang lalong mapayabong ang ating pambansang wika sa larangan ng pananaliksik at pagkatuto.

Binuksan ang programa sa pamamagitan ng pambungad na pananalita ni Gng. Edzel Baras, Department Head ng FTE, na nagpaalala sa lahat na ang wikang Filipino ay nananatiling buhay at may kakayahang sumabay sa mabilis na pag-unlad ng agham at teknolohiya. Nagkaroon din ng mga pagtatanghal na nagpakita ng husay at pagmamalasakit ng mga mag-aaral sa kulturang Pilipino.

Sa huli, muling pinatunayan ng pagdiriwang na ang Buwan ng Wika ay hindi lamang isang ritwal ito ay isang makabuluhang paalala na ang ating wika ay tulay sa kaalaman, kasaysayan, at pagkakaisa ng sambayanan, lalo na sa panahon ng mabilis na pagbabago ng mundo.
