ne helping hand is great, indeed. But to have two? It would be an immense pleasure no stranger to San Mariano National High School-Main.
Throughout our life, there are trails of tribulations to trike. The school prepares us for these paths. With the help of people around us — we grow, stronger. We enter the schools with our pockets filled with dreams, our backpacks loaded with the hunger for knowledge, and our minds like soil, waiting to be cultivated. It is fitting to say that schools are an avenue for us to build aegis, apart from gain knowledge. In San Mariano National High School-Main, it isn’t only the schools that take charge of the students’ improvement. Rather, parents do as much as the schools by working collaboratively and extending their warm helping hand. For every parent-teacher conference there is, a grand number of attendance of guardians are expected. The discussion of necessary facilities and projects echo through the speakers as such meetings happen. On the 12th of October 2024, the annual School General Parent-teacher Association (SGPTA) gathering of SMNHS commenced through which issues and needs of students often hidden in the crevice of darkness are
shed a light. The school recognizes the well-being of the students at most, and so is Ma’am Glenda I. Pira has invited the Local Government Unit of San Mariano to highlight the importance and adherence of learners to various implementations. The lens of the meeting was focused on emphasizing the importance of Bakuna Eskwela and Real Property Valuation and Assessment Reform Acts (PRVARA) among many others. Not only that, but the meeting discussed the accomplishments of the school in providing the students a caliber education which means a quality soil for the learners minds to prosper. Through such meetings, with the help of parents, SMNHS has achieved great results. The facilities improved, infrastructure enhanced, and the quality of education refined. The school and parents cultivate the students, in such a way that they provide a ground for minds to blossom. No obstacle is impossible for a student with the right maternal and educational hand lifting it. Alliances such as SMNHS’ parent-teacher is a grand gesture of unity. Both hands lift the learners to the horizon where they can stand strong, full of knowledge.
