Procrastination has a sneaky way of turning small mistakes into complete disasters. When a teacher announces a quiz for the next day, everyone has the same opportunity to prepare, yet not everyone takes it seriously. While some students spend the night reviewing, others choose to binge videos or sleep early instead. Then comes quiz day, and reality crashes down hard. With blank stares and half-hearted guesses, the results speak for themselves. Now that school is starting in just a few days, we’d better not let another “quizaster” catch us off guard.

Long ago, the Philippines endured centuries of colonial rule under Spain and the United States. The struggle for freedom came to an end on June 12, 1898, when General Emilio Aguinaldo declared independence in Kawit, Cavite. Though Spain’s rule officially ended later that year through the Treaty of Paris, which ceded the Philippines to the United States, the 1898 declaration revealed how deeply Filipinos longed for liberty.

After decades of struggle and sacrifice, full independence was finally achieved on July 4, 1946. This hard-won freedom is a gift to cherish and a duty to carry. Today, June 12, 2025, we remember those who carried the weight of freedom on their shoulders and we honor their courage with every flag raised and every song sung. Unbound at last from foreign rule, this is the day the nation roams free.

One hour—that’s how long it took to achieve peak readiness. Hair, neatly styled; bag, carefully packed; uniform, crisp and wrinkle-free. Yet just as one reaches the school gate with seconds to spare, a sudden realization strikes: you left your student ID back at home. In an instant, all that effort seems undone. Amid the fast-paced routines of school mornings, it’s often the smallest oversight that causes the biggest disruption. And just like that, you’re stuck outside—flawless, but ID-less. Now that’s an IDentity crisis!

Everyone’s scribbling answers, and the room is dead silent—except for one constant companion: BZZZ! It’s not tension in the air; it’s the mini fan of that one student who refuses to sweat in peace. The sound has become a classroom classic of white noise. While the rest of the class tries to concentrate through the steady hum of secondhand ventilation, that student is vibing with hair blowing, eyes closed, and is completely unaware they’ve become the soundtrack of the entire room.

Furthermore, the week-long Brigada Eskwela is set to conclude on June 13 with a closing ceremony to acknowledge the efforts of the faculty, volunteers, and sponsors.

𝙍𝙀𝘾𝙀𝙉𝙏𝙇𝙔: In preparation for the forthcoming academic year, Eastern Samar National Comprehensive High School initiates the Brigada Eskwela 2025 kick-off program at the ESNCHS gym today, June 9.

Preceded by a motorcade, the ceremony opened with a short message from the emcee, Julius Gilbert Mallen, who underscored the role of collaboration and kabayanihan in building a nation of readers and learners, followed by Ma'am Felinda Jamer, assistant principal designated for junior high school, who delivered the welcome address.

To provide clarity on the event's objectives, Brigada Eskwela Coordinator Sir Alden C. Asio discussed its role as a yearly DepEd directive, emphasizing its purpose in readying schools for the return of learners.

“Because of this tradition, we are renewing our commitment to service to the Department of Education. This is a very significant and meaningful activity not only for teachers but also for learners,” Sir Asio said.

Subsequently, Ma'am Lea Cardona, Head Teacher of the Mathematics Department, formally presented the volunteer assignments for the week, wherein participants were grouped by area and paired with partners and coordinators.

Moreover, Hon. Jasmin Coles, Barangay Chairman of Brgy. Alang-Alang delivered a message of support, encouraging organized community participation.

A pledge of commitment, led by Ma'am Marina Estrada, followed shortly after as participants stood together to affirm collective support for the week's activities.

The ceremony concluded with a community dance led by the MAPEH teachers of ESNCHS, officially marking the start of the school-wide cleanup set to run until June 13.

𝙇𝙊𝙊𝙆: With only a week left until the start of Academic Year 2025-2026, the enrollment for the incoming Grade 11 students of Eastern Samar National Comprehensive High School (ESNCHS) officially commenced today, June 9, and will resume tomorrow.

The enrolled Grade 11 students will be met with the revised Senior High School curriculum, referred to as the "Strengthened Senior High School Curriculum," that reduces the number of tracks from four to two, condensing the 4-track system into two tracks, namely the Academic Track and the Technical Professional (TechPro) Track.

Under the academic track are the strands focused on Science, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM); Humanities, Education, and Social Sciences (HUMSS); and Accountancy, Business, and Management (ABM). Meanwhile, the TechPro track focuses on honing Technical-Vocational-Livelihood (TVL) strands.

The aforementioned curriculum will limit the previous 15 core subjects to five and introduce the "doorway option," allowing students to select electives from any cluster regardless of their track.

Further, the allotted schedule for the enrollment for Grade 12 is on June 11 and 13, while the long-awaited A.Y. 2025-2026 is set to begin on June 16.
