𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐔𝐑𝐀𝐋𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐀 𝐍𝐔𝐓𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐋: 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐩 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐬 ‘𝟐𝟔–’𝟐𝟕
This year’s Intramurals truly began with a flash and is going to close with an impact. The five-day-long sporting event is nearing its conclusion as we breezed through four out of five days even after numerous counts of suspensions. Despite the gloomy atmosphere and rainy weather, the athletes and students’ fire retained its spark throughout the events, still cheering, fighting, and competing.

As the closing program nears, let us retrace our steps with a brief summary of the plot so far! With the Red Abyssal Yveltals, Yellow Aureus Solgaleo, Green Zenith Zygardes, Azure Articunos, and the Silver Sterlings.

𝗔𝗨𝗚𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝟯 (𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝟭)
The first day laid out the colorful array of events of this year’s Intramurals with nothing else but, of course, a parade of colors. Shortly after each team had circled around the oval and entered the LPSci Covered Court, the opening program commenced with Ms. Ma. Johanna Carvajal as the master of the ceremony who led the program. As all necessary remarks were made and the program closed, players and audiences alike proceeded to the Villar Gymnasium for the first games of Volleyball.
The first volleyball girls’ elimination game had Abyssal Yveltals face off against Silver Sterlings, with the Yveltals securing a 2–0 victory. Following this, Yellow Aureus Solgaleo went against Blue Azure Articunos, where the Articunos claimed another 2–0 win. The third game brought the boys to the court, as Abyssal Yveltals once again faced Silver Sterlings, this time emerging victorious after a closer 2–1 match.

𝗔𝗨𝗚𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝟰 (𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝟮)
The second day of Intramurals brought another set of exciting matches, with Tamaang Tao taking place alongside the continuing volleyball eliminations. After classes were dismissed, players proceeded to the Villar Gymnasium and Bambusetum Court, where both games were held with medics and volunteers present for player safety.

In Tamaang Tao, Azure Articunos and Aureus Solgaleo faced off in the opening match, followed by the other teams competing for a place in the championship. Sterling Silver ultimately dominated the competition, defeating Zenith Zygardes and later claiming the Tamaang Tao championship against Azure Articunos. Meanwhile, in volleyball boys , Aureus Solgaleo defeated Azure Articuno 2–1, while Zenith Zygardes defeated Abyssal Yveltals 2–0, securing their spots in the championship. And for volleyball girls, Zenith Zygardes defeated the Abyssal Yveltals, 2–1, also proceeding to the championships.

Two days in, the Intramurals have been filled with fierce competition, spirited cheers, unexpected victories, and moments that tested every team’s determination. More than the scores and championships, the games have brought students together through sportsmanship, camaraderie, perseverance, and school spirit—truly capturing what the Intramurals are all about.

Prioritizing the safety of students in light of the mass shooting incidents in public schools, the Las Pinas City National Science High School (LPSci) began its crackdown on the mandatory bag inspection and separated entrances for male and female learners on Wednesday.

The bag check involves trusted campus staff searching through students' backpacks using a stick to move items around (usually a wooden baton, depending on the institution) to minimize possible thefts and invasions of privacy.

At the same time, learners are now required to enter through different gates depending on their sexes: Gate 2 for junior high school (JHS) and senior high school (SHS) males and Gate 3 for JHS and SHS females, with different staff members guarding each opening.

Under DepEd Order No. 006, s. 2026, students discovered to have weapons such as fi****ms, replicas, am******on, cutters, or scissors without academic necessity; hazardous materials (explosives or dangerous chemicals); controlled substances and vapes (e-ci******es, traditional ci******es, alcoholic beverages, or drugs); or unnecessary/unauthorized items (lighters, matches, or non-shatterproof containers) will receive specific disciplinary sanctions.

Consequences typically include immediate confiscation by security personnel or school authorities and first, second, and third-level offenses that may result in written reprimands, mandatory suspensions, non-readmission, and expulsion.

When scissors and other sharp or dangerous objects must be brought into the school for activities or projects, however, students are instructed to place the items in clear plastic bags with designated labels before submitting them to their teachers to be used within class hours.

These measures were taken in light of the mass school shooting in Tacloban City on June 22, 2026, where two teenage students (aged 14 and 15) opened fire on San Jose National High School, killing three students and injuring up to 80 others.

The incident sparked national security reforms, prompting the Department of Education (DepEd) and local authorities to audit existing protocols and implement stricter preventative measures across schools nationwide.

As for LPSci, these changes were implemented under Principal I, Mr. Dave Renath R. Baguio, and school authorities in accordance with DepEd's mandate to protect and promote the rights of every student through quality education and a safe learning environment through proper security systems and minimized risks.

A Warm Welcome to LPSci's New Principal

"Expect the unexpected."

It is a familiar phrase, yet no one imagined it would perfectly describe what unfolded on July 3, 2026.

Students arrived at Las Piñas City National Science High School expecting another ordinary Friday filled with engaging classes taught by inspiring teachers, time to hang out with their best friends, share lunch together, and, above all, fulfill their responsibilities before clocking out for the day and heading home. But that day, something truly unexpected happened, an event that came in the form of a celebration.

Giving a warm welcome to LPSci's new principal, Mr. Dave Renath R. Baguio!

The ceremony began on an exuberant note as students excitedly filled the court, and teachers with great anticipation, waited patiently for the program to commence. A vivaciously-vibe welcoming remark by Sir Peter Bangug and Ms. Joan Colima soon followed, sparking effervescent excitement in the crowd. They had successfully pumped up the crowd for the rest of the event, giving everyone a glimpse of the special moments that awaited them during the afternoon ceremony.

Then, as usual, the program proceeded with the prayer, during which everyone gave praise and thanks to our Almighty God for all of the blessings, for how far we have come, and for allowing us to gather in the court with smiling faces, healthy minds, and humble hearts.

Soon afterwards came the speeches of the highly esteemed Assistant Principal, Mrs. Mary Joy L. Simbahon, and LPSci’s new principal, Mr. Dave Renath R. Baguio. Together, they shared their experiences as school leaders, their insights, and, of course, their personal stories and backgrounds.

From there, everyone watched as the scene unfolded, shifting from a scene of high energy and blazing spirits to one of clarity and heartfelt reflection. The Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG), members of the Student Body, and even the School Parent-Teacher Association (SPTA) each delivered inspirational messages, which the audience listened to attentively. Following these presentations, the Boy Scouts of the Philippines (BSP) welcomed the new principal with an enthusiastic march and salute, displaying utmost respect. Afterwards, Micah Jimenez, whose mellifluous voice captivated the audience, showcased her talent through a heartfelt song that fostered a sense of unity and passion, a lively and memorable performance, indeed!

At the end of it all, however, the once lively vibe and pumped-up crowd gradually settled into a fitting, purposeful conclusion. As the welcome ceremony came to a close, the entire school participated in the lowering of the flag, the singing of Lupang Hinirang, and the recitation of the Panatang Makabayan.

And yes, it was indeed true that all stories, including this one, have a happy ending. It was finally time to head home and return to our usual weekend routines, resting our tired bodies, probably spending the next 48 hours in deep sleep, binge-watching our favorite shows, or playing games.

Although the ceremony had come to a close, our hearts remained full of inspiration, gratitude, and joy. More than just welcoming a new principal, we celebrated the beginning of a new chapter for the LPSci community while creating meaningful memories with our friends, classmates, and teachers.

But then, there came the big question — what's next for this beautiful institution where we thrive and flourish?

Since the departure of the most respected Ma’am Eleanor V. Honorales, this question has lingered in our minds. We have flipped the page to the next chapter of our LPSci journey, yet the page remains blank. Perhaps, however, it has been reserved for a story yet to be written, a story full of memories, great times, and meaningful moments that will one day be worth reminiscing about.

And at the heart of it all is Mr. Dave Renath R. Baguio, and the leadership he will bring to our humble school. Welcome to LPSci, Sir Dave!

𝐁𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞

As June concludes and the year breaches past its midpoint, morning sunlight slowly spills through bedroom windows. The crowing of roosters and chirping of birds surround the neighborhood, while the savory aroma of freshly prepared breakfast drifts around your home. As the day slowly stirs to its morning tempo, a beam of sunlight catches the window glass and scatters into a spectrum of colors—revealing the hidden harmony beneath one united front.

Much like the hidden colors within sunshine, the world is formed by the unity of those who inhabit it. As the communities all around the world came together to celebrate Pride Month this June, we are once again reminded that each individual contributes their own—different and unique shade to form our light.

It’s important that as one society, we are constantly reminded not to dim the light of others—as every person carries their own light, not to be shaded nor overpowered. Especially during Pride Month, where visibility reflects our diversity and brilliance.

This idea of light and color can also be seen in that media we consume on a daily basis. Through stories, films, books, and especially digital media, representation allows different identities and experiences to be seen—not as something unusual, but as something that has always been there. Visibility, from this lens, is akin to shining light on people who have been dimmed or overlooked, even through something as simple as a screen. After all, our devices themselves emit light.

When people watch or read media mirroring their stories, it fosters a sense of belonging. At the same time, promotes empathy and understanding from others viewing the experiences of others. Representation does not introduce something new; it simply widens the spotlight to include others.

However, we must always be mindful that visibility is not temporary nor performative. True support goes beyond yearly traditions, it is consistent and genuine. It is shown through constant respect, inclusion, and acceptance—-not just during pride month, but throughout the entire year.

Always remember, when we choose to see the light of others fully, we allow that light to shine brighter—not because something new and flashy is added, but because it is now finally seen.

Happiest Pride Month from the Standard Press ❤️
