"'Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Follow these three magic words, and you - yes, you - will help the world become a better place!'
You've probably seen the lines above in about a million posters and social media efforts. In fact, numerous campaigns include more than three R's, sometimes listing five or even seven at a time."

I came to realize: if you could show such compassion for those who suffer regardless of their identities and backgrounds, the rest of the Catholic Church has no excuse for not following suit.

BREAKING: Classes are suspended tomorrow, July 22, as per the Quezon City Government's advisory.

| Dahil sa malakas na pag-ulan at banta ng pagbaha dulot ng hanging Habagat, inirerekomenda ng Quezon City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (QCDRRMO) ang suspensyon ng face-to-face classes sa lahat ng antas ng mga pampubliko at pribadong paaralan sa Quezon City bukas, Martes, Hulyo 22, 2025.

Pinapayuhan ang lahat na mag-ingat at manatili sa inyong tahanan kung kinakailangan para sa inyong kaligtasan.

BREAKING: The Quezon City government has suspended classes for the rest of the day. As of 10:45am, Metro Manila has been placed under Orange Heavy Rainfall Warning.

JUST IN:

| Naglabas ang PAGASA ng Weather Bulletin ngayong 10:45AM, July 21, 2025 at nagtaas ng ORANGE Heavy Rainfall Warning sa buong Metro Manila.

Base sa DepEd Order No. 022 s. 2024 at Local Government Memorandum Circular No. 3 s. 2025, otomatikong suspendido ang klase sa Child Development Centers, Kindergarten hanggang Senior High School, at Alternative Learning System (ALS) sa mga PAMPUBLIKONG PAARALAN kapag nakataas ang Orange Heavy Rainfall Warning.

Ayon sa DepEd, kung itinaas ang warning oras na nakapagsimula na ng klase, kailangang suspindihin ang klase at trabaho sa paaralan, at pauwiin ang lahat kung ligtas itong gawin.

Subalit obligado ang mga eskwelahan na panatilihin sa campus ang mga estudyante at personnel kung delikadong bumiyahe.

ANG POST NA ITO AY GABAY LAMANG SA MGA HINDI PA NAKAKAALAM SA BAGONG ADVISORY NG PAGASA.

Ang suspensyon ng klase sa PRIVATE SCHOOLS at HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS ay nasa pagpapasya ng pamunuan ng eskwelahan, pero para sa kaligtasan ng mga g**o at estudyante, hinihikayat ang mga ito na sundin ang national o localized suspension.

Inaatasan ng DepEd ang mga eskwelahan na magpatupad ng alternative learning modes.

Your body clock still set to vacation mode, your uniform suddenly not fitting right, and your class group chat booming with messages, ready or not — we’re here on the first day of school.

At the end of the day, this project is only the start of a journey through science. The journey ahead will be filled with ever-changing twists and turns, challenges that stretch the limits once known, and questions that lead to future destinies. Traversing through it will be far from easy, but it will teach plenty about adapting to evolution and change.

INPHOTOS | D+1 Since Takeoff: ALAB continues back-to-school celebrations on Day 2

ALAB 2025 provided more festivities for the PSHS–MC community to warm up for the new school year.

FAYP students participated in the Club Fair. Fairgoers were introduced to Pisay's clubs through their booths and given bingo cards with prompts encouraging them to interact with and explore booths around the Gym and ASTB Hall.

Meanwhile, SYP students engaged in a battle of both brains and brawn in a gameshow that had blocks compete head-to-head to sn**ch a handkerchief for a chance to answer Pisay trivia.

Other batch-wide events held on ALAB Day 2 included a Talk by Sir Dama Cid for Batches 2026 and 2028, and various team building activities such as Sik-Fab for Batch 2031, Siklaban for Batch 2030, Lakbay-SIklab for Batch 2029, Siklab’s Memories for Batch 2027, and Liyab Lookout for Batches 2029 and 2031.
