Hard work, dedication, and a passion for education have brought another remarkable achievement to the faculty of Passi City College (PCC) as one of its instructors earned the highest academic distinction in her graduate studies.

Mia D. Sarmen, an instructor from the School of Business Management (SOBM) and a Physical Activity Towards Health and Fitness (PATHFit) educator, will be conferred the prestigious title of Meritissimus and will be awarded Outstanding during the commencement exercises of the Graduate School of Filamer Christian University in Roxas City, Capiz on June 5, 2026.

Sarmen successfully completed her Master of Arts in Teaching major in Physical Education, graduating with exceptional academic performance and demonstrating excellence throughout her graduate school journey.

Balancing the demands of teaching and graduate studies, she remained committed to both professional growth and academic excellence.

Adding to her accomplishments, Sarmen successfully defended her master's thesis entitled “Effectiveness of Game-Based Approach in Enhancing Power and Strength of College Students” on April 29, 2026.

Her research explored innovative teaching strategies in physical education and contributed valuable insights into improving student fitness and performance through engaging, game-based learning approaches.

Sarmen's success highlights the value of determination and continuous education, proving that with commitment and hard work, academic and professional goals can be achieved simultaneously.
