LOOK: SCHOLARS IN ACTION

On Tuesday, September 30, a 6.9 magnitude earthquake hit Cebu heavily affecting the northern areas of Bogo, Meddellin, Bantayan, Daanbantayan, Tabuelan, Tabogon, Sogod, and San Remigio.

In response, the SciHi family came together and helped their fellow Cebuanos recover from the tragedy. Through donations and fundraising activities, the scholars have lent a hand to the BangonSugbo initiative.

Local clubs are also currently accepting in-kind and cash donations for this initiative.

In the human body, there are multiple systems that work together to continuously preserve life. Every system in the body quietly contributes to life, even those that are often overlooked.

Our school also runs a similar way: multiple systems working together to ensure academic excellence. However, there is an unnoticed system that deserves to be recognized for their contribution: our utility staff.

At the heart of our institution are the hundreds of students walking the halls with success written in their names. They are surrounded by a community of intelligent and compassionate mentors and companions witnessing their blooming potential day by day. Yet, what these scholars fail to notice are the guardians that keep their journey steadyโ€“those maintaining order, discipline, and cleanliness in our very institution. Just like the bones who silently support and strengthen each step we take, they have allowed our day-to-day learning to unfold without a hitch.

Our Science High culture would not have been possible without them.

From the highly anticipated yearly events to just the mundane routine of the everyday Scihiyista, they are always around: cleaning our surroundings, keeping our campus safe, ensuring our documents are in order, and keeping even the littlest of details in place. Our muscles and bones work together to provide our bodies movement and so do our teaching and non teaching staff working hand in hand to keep life flowing through all areas of our institution. For that, it is only right to give them the proper recognition they deserve.

As much as the fruits of their labor are enjoyed by the community, most of their efforts remain unnoticed. We do not wake up everyday and celebrate our bones yet we could not continue to live without them. In the same way, we should give gratitude to our utility workers even if it continues to remain unsaid.

There are easy and simple ways that we can do to truly honor them. Just by making their workload easier, greeting them around campus, and giving them a heartfelt โ€œthank youโ€ is enough to give them the respect they deserve. By showing them respect, they will continue to feel encouraged to keep going even through life's challenges. They do not come to work everyday just to do their tasks but to see their beloved community and students grow into the best version of themselves.

Though we may not notice them, we should remember that we can enjoy every day because of them. They are the bones of Science Highโ€“unseen yet indispensable pillars holding us steady in the pursuit of academic excellence.

Darkness has a way of sharpening the senses.

The usual chatter of the classroom, once ordinary, stretches thin. The laughter in the hallway grows faint. And in the silence that follows a bad grade, a mistake, or a restless thought, the world suddenly feels too heavy for teenage shoulders to bear.

That is when the stars appear. Not the constellations painted across the night sky, but those who walk the same floors we rush across, who sit in small offices tucked away behind glass doors.

For most, they are invisible in the daylight. Like stars at noon, they blend into the ordinary sky of our routines filled with classes, projects, and deadlines. We whisper about them when we are summoned. We dread the knock on the guidance office door. We associate them with rules, restrictions, and reprimands. Sometimes we mistake their watchfulness for walls instead of shelter.

But when the light dims, when confusion darkens our path, when failure clouds our horizon, when fear whispers louder than our confidence, they shine.

Dr. Marilou Dela Cuesta, Mr. Jonah Bacalso, Mr. Rudolph Paqueo, Mr. Rene Alquizola II, Maโ€™am Maria Theresa Catayas, Maโ€™am Ruby Mae Igot, Maโ€™am Marjorie Otero, Maโ€™am Ivy Quijano, Maโ€™am Wiluna Ubanan, Maโ€™am Jocelyn Acre, and Maโ€™am Loen Luchavezโ€”they are the North Stars of SciHi: the administration and guidance staff who never waver. They ensure that every policy, every decision, and every studentโ€™s welfare is carefully watched over; they navigate crises with calm authority and illuminate the path for both staff and students alike.

In their offices, discipline is not a punishment, but a protection. Advice is not a lecture but a lantern. Rules are not chains but maps pointing us forward. Their words may sometimes sting like the cold of midnight air, but in that sting there is clarity, and in that firmness there is care. As Dr. Marilou Dela Cuesta has it, โ€œthey contribute to making administrative processes and operations efficient by focusing on the details of their assigned tasks.โ€ She calls for them to live by the mandate that "public office is a public trust.โ€

The truth of the stars is this: they do not exist for themselves, but for those who look up to them. They glow for us, quietly and persistently, so that in the darkest corners of our school days, we do not stumble blind.

Not always visible. Not always praised. But steady, unwavering, and ours. Until itโ€™s dark.

Chills run down my spine.

The street hums with the rush of cars and chatter, but all I hear is the drum of my footsteps echoing against the pavement. My bag feels heavier with each step, as though the books inside conspire to slow me down. The air clings to my skin, thick and restless, like it, too, is holding its breath for the final bell.

Up ahead, a figure anchors the chaosโ€”steady, immovable, like a lighthouse in a storm. His uniform is pressed crisp against the late morning heat, his cap casting a shadow that swallows half his face, but his eyes are sharp, scanning the flood of students as though every life were a page in his keeping.

I quicken my pace, heart rattling like loose coins in a tin can. No textbook has ever taught me discipline quite like his silence does. No chalkboard has ever carved lessons as deeply as the crease of responsibility lining his brow. No pen has ever stained my notebooks as lasting as the ones etched silently by this teacher.

When I finally pass him, his gaze flicks toward meโ€”not scolding, demeaning, nor condescendingโ€”it is a look that says, โ€œAs long as I stand here, nothing will touch you.โ€

In that moment, the sidewalk feels less like a race to the school gate and more like a haven for learning, where respect is our watchword, where discipline is the first lesson of the day, and where the teacher needs not technical apparatusesโ€”not even a classroomโ€”to instill in me wisdom beyond pages of dust-laden books.

Mr. Bienvenido Lindayao Jr., Mr. Rayman Requieron, Mr. Donald Taboada, Mr. Jonel Aballe, and Mr. Joel Fernandezโ€”five torches whose steady light has guided countless footsteps, whose lessons are not measured in grades but in the safety we inadvertently take for granted.

In a bustling school like Science High, where studies clamor for studentsโ€™ attention, we sometimes fail to harken the subtle call of safetyโ€”fragile, like a wet glass that could slip from our hands at any moment. As such, their importance cannot be overstated. Without them, the school would be a ship adrift, vulnerable to storms. They are the first line of defense, the upholders of discipline, and the guardians who ensure that learning can thrive without fear. Their presence is tantamount to the feeling of reassurance, the knowledge that every student who passes through these gates leaves unharmed and secure. Dr. Marilou Dela Cuestaโ€”the head teacher of Cebu City National Science High Schoolโ€”stresses this, with her message being โ€œthat they will always be committed to securing the life and limbs of all persons as well as the safety of all properties, and that they would render service above self.โ€

Truth be told, these men are teachers in their own rightโ€”educators of character, discipline, and respect who merit laud for the tireless work they do behind the scenes.

That is true education.

The glow sticks light up the arena in a twilight of colors, their neon shine bouncing off of the surface and onto his striking face, warranting a chorus of delighted squeals from the audience. With looks that could rival household names in the K-pop industry and a refined sense of character that inspires those he meetsโ€”he is none other than Sir Paul Caminos.

In a world where digital illiteracy creates divides in the community, Sir Caminos takes on the challenge of unifying those lapses of knowledge. He strives to teach students how to deconstruct and relearn the values of being responsible, discerning, and ethical in todayโ€™s digital age. With a subject as refined and nuanced as media information literacyโ€”one that only a few can truly teach with finesseโ€”he stands as one of its strongest contenders.

Not only is he successful in his line of work, but he is also an inspiring leader to students. He excels both inside the classroom and within the school community, making him an exceptionally fitting Grade Leader. As Grade 12 Governor Tan Corbita shared: โ€œI can see him as a big brother, because his leadership has the ability to foster those under his care. He surpasses his role as just a teacherโ€”he is a great example to follow and aspire for.โ€

His sense of character especially defines him, as expressed by Grade 12 Vice Governor Havanna Prollo: โ€œWhen Sir Caminos introduced himself, I knew from that very moment that everything was going to be alright.โ€ In the classroom, he teaches with ease, making every activity as engaging and interactive as possible. More than just academics, he imparts wisdom that lasts. Prollo remarked, โ€œSir Caminos taught us not just whatโ€™s written in any textbook, but also life lessons that we will carry throughout our lives. Sir Caminos is a great teacher, and it is an honor to be taught by him.โ€

He is a figure who walks with an unmistaken fortitude and charisma, with the ability to guide students through both the flashing lights of media and the challenges of the digital age. With a memorable presence and character to boot, he stands as one of the true superstars of Science High.
