ADAMazing Day to SHINE! ✨🍊

From the hush of deadlines to the rush of headlines, two brilliant editors of Team Ponkans are taking a well-deserved break from the press room today to celebrate another year of life.

Today, we celebrate not just two birthdays, but two passionate storytellers of Team Ponkans who continue to set an example for the Ramonian community through their voices, creativity, and commitment to upholding responsible journalism—Shanelle Huqueriza and John Adam Clint Sampiano.

Keeping her story shining in 2026, the Most Outstanding Campus Journalist in Western Visayas is ready to step into another chapter of growth, courage, and becoming. As the Editor-in-Chief for Filipino, Shanelle continues to embrace every new beginning with confidence. She is not afraid to begin, not afraid to dream, and never afraid to shine in her own way.

Meanwhile, from the once timid kid who was afraid to unlock his full potential emerged Adam—a true ace and a jack of all trades. We have watched him grow into someone who embraces opportunities and rises to every challenge. Carrying multiple validations on his shoulders, he has proven time and again just how ADAMazing he truly is. With his determination, talent, and drive, there is no doubt that he is well on his way to the top.

To Shine and Adam, thank you for leading the way and inspiring the next generation of Team Ponkans. Your stories, achievements, and passion remind us that campus journalism is not just about writing headlines—it is about finding one's voice, believing in one's potential, and inspiring others to do the same.

The future of campus journalism is brighter because of you.

Keep shining, Shine. Keep being amazing, Adam. Happy birthday to you both! 🎉

“If you were given only ₱1,000 to start a small business, what product could you create and sell profitably—and how can mathematics prove that your idea is viable?”

This question set the stage for PUHUNAN 2026: The ₱1,000 Student Business Pitch Challenge, an integrative final-term performance task for Grade 11 learners taking General Mathematics at Ramon A. Benjamin Sr. National High School on Aug. 26.

The challenge was conceptualized and brought to life by Dr. Philip Jayson Falcis, who handles Grade 11 General Mathematics classes under the Strengthened Senior High School Curriculum.

“This is something new,” Falcis said. “Our goal was to provide learners with an integrative, inquiry-based, and collaborative learning experience that we haven’t done before. The ultimate challenge was how to deliver a business pitch in only five minutes.”

Through the activity, learners were challenged to integrate and apply the competencies they developed during the first term, transforming their mathematical knowledge and skills into meaningful applications in authentic business contexts.

For many students, the experience also provided an opportunity to step outside their comfort zones.

“I loved the Business Pitch Challenge because it gave me the experience of speaking in front of a panel,” said presenter John Adam Clint Sampiano. “At first, I was nervous, but as I adjusted, I became more confident. It was a challenging but fun experience that helped me improve my speaking and presentation skills.”

To ensure a rigorous, authentic, and objective assessment of the learners’ outputs, a distinguished panel of experts evaluated the business portfolios and live pitches. The panel included Ma. Cecilia G. Ibabao, Christian F. Basco, and Roxanne E. Guillermo.

The challenge also encouraged students to develop creativity and innovation as they refined their business concepts.

“The concept was mainly my groupmates’ idea, but I was the one who thought, ‘Why not give it a twist?’ And that’s how our concept came to life,” said Maxine Nathania Orteza, another student presenter.

Through PUHUNAN 2026, Grade 11 learners strengthened their mathematical reasoning, financial literacy, critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, and oral communication skills while demonstrating how mathematics can be applied to real-world and workplace contexts.

The track becomes a stage for power and precision as every athlete takes on the challenge one phase at a time. From the first hop to the final jump, each movement carries them closer to the distance.

The Radiance, the official student press operation and media arm of Ramon A. Benjamin Sr. National High School, has covered the annual Dumarao District Meet since 2017. Through this experience, our campus journalists gather information, report updates, tell stories, and continue to grow while serving the Dumaraonon community.

Regarding our earlier post on the Overall Medal Tally Results of the DumSIPSSAA Meet 2026, we would like to clarify that the information published was based on a tally consulted from the Host DumSIPSSAA Meet 2026 Results Committee and was not independently produced by The Radiance.

We sincerely apologize to Estefania Montemayor National High School, under the leadership of Sir Johnny P. Pugon, Principal IV and OIC-PSDS, and Bungsuan National High School, led by our former school head, Ma’am Lourdes V. Paligumba, Principal III, as well as to their sports coordinators, coaches, athletes, parents, and supportive communities.

We also thank the host school, Presentacion Diez Gregorio National High School, under the leadership of Sir Rhyan G. Huqueriza, Head Teacher I and DumSIPSSAA President, for accommodating The Radiance and allowing our campus journalists to cover the event.

Sports should unite communities through fairness, respect, discipline, and excellence—not divide them. Beyond medals, rankings, and results, every competition should bring us together in celebrating the effort, sacrifices, and dreams of every athlete and school.
