Ipinamalas ng mga batang mamamahayag ng Baco National High School ang kanilang husay, sipag, at dedikasyon sa pamamahayag matapos makamit ang iba’t ibang parangal sa 2026 Division Schools Press Conference (DSPC) na ginanap noong Setyembre 11–13 sa Bansud, Oriental Mindoro, kapwa sa individual at group categories.

Sa likod ng bawat tagumpay ay mga taong naging katuwang ng mga batang mamamahayag. Taos-pusong pasasalamat ang ipinaaabot ng Baco NHS sa mga magulang ng ating mga campus journalists sa kanilang walang sawang suporta, pang-unawa, pagtitiwala, at paghihikayat. Malaki ang naging bahagi ng kanilang paggabay sa pagkamit ng mga anak ng mga tagumpay sa larangan ng pamamahayag.

Lubos ding pinasasalamatan ang Local Government Unit of Baco sa pangunguna ni Mayor Allan A. Roldan sa mahalagang tulong pinansyal at sa pagpapahiram ng sasakyang nagsilbing service para sa mga student journalists at coaches. Ang inyong suporta ay naging malaking ambag upang maging maayos, ligtas, at matagumpay ang paglahok ng delegasyon ng Baco NHS sa DSPC.

Taos-puso ring kinikilala ang mahalagang suporta ni Vice Mayor Brederick V. Castillo, PTA President, sa patuloy na pagtulong at pakikiisa sa mga programa at gawain para sa kapakanan at pag-unlad ng mga mag-aaral ng Baco NHS.

Nararapat ding pasalamatan si Dr. Isagani V. Cañete, MD, MPHA, Municipal Health Officer, sa pagsasagawa ng medical examination sa mga student journalists at sa kanilang mga kasamang coaches bago ang kompetisyon. Ang inyong serbisyo at malasakit ay nakatulong upang matiyak ang kalagayan at kahandaan ng ating delegasyon.

Nagpapasalamat din ang “Ang Batis” sa pamunuan ng Baco National High School, sa School Principal Michael R. Alcala at kay Dr. Loida S. Pigon, Assistant Principal for Senior High School OIC, gayundin sa buong pamilya ng Baco NHS, sa patuloy na suporta, tiwala, at pagbibigay ng pagkakataon sa mga kabataan na malinang ang kanilang talento, kakayahan, at tinig sa larangan ng campus journalism.

Kinikilala rin ang walang pagod na paggabay ng mga coaches—Ricca Mae G. Pentinio, Charlene C. Yocampo, Aileen L. Hernandez, Krizzalene P. Caibigan, Rocky Nathaniel R. Sales, Khristine S. Lacsamana, Marjorie L. Sarmiento—na naglaan ng panahon, kaalaman, tiyaga, at puso upang maihanda ang mga batang mamamahayag para sa kompetisyon.
Higit sa lahat, saludo ang “Ang Batis” sa mga batang mamamahayag ng Baco NHS na buong tapang na hinarap ang hamon ng kompetisyon. Ang inyong talento, pagsisikap, disiplina, at dedikasyon ang tunay na nagbibigay-buhay sa tinig ng kabataan.

Sa pangunguna ng Heads of Delegation na sina Maria Fe G. Magboo at May H. Bersoto, naging isang makabuluhan at matagumpay na karanasan ang paglahok ng Baco National High School sa 2026 DSPC.

Ang bawat parangal ay hindi lamang medalya o pagkilala, kundi bunga ng sama-samang pagsisikap ng buong komunidad ng Baco NHS—mga mag-aaral, magulang, g**o, coaches, school leaders, katuwang na ahensya, at mga tagasuporta.

Mula sa “Ang Batis,” maraming salamat sa lahat ng naging bahagi ng tagumpay na ito. Ang inyong suporta ang nagsilbing lakas ng ating mga batang mamamahayag upang patuloy na magsulat, magsalita, at maghatid ng makabuluhang tinig para sa paaralan at pamayanan.

BACO, ORIENTAL MINDORO — Strengthening its preparedness for possible emergencies, Baco National High School (BNHS) conducted a safety drill in coordination with the Baco Municipal Police Station and the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), Sept 3.

The activity began with a short orientation attended by students, teachers, and school personnel. Dr. Loida S. Pigon, OIC- Assistant Principal of SHS Department, explained the proper measures to take in case an unauthorized person enters the school with the intention of harming others.

Pigon reminded participants to immediately secure their classrooms by closing the curtains when windows have no jalousies, locking the doors, and using available chairs or tables to block entry points such as doors and windows. She emphasized the importance of staying alert and following safety protocols during such situations.

Meanwhile, Ma’am May H. Bersoto welcomed the visiting police and fire officers as well as the participating students and school personnel.

After that, Police Officer Reden Dueñas reminded teachers and students who use motorcycles to always wear helmets while riding. " Wearing a helmet is an important safety practice that can help protect riders from serious injury in case of road accidents", he said.

Following the initial orientation, Sir Nilo Rabino, School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (SDRMMO) Coordinator, discussed important considerations in responding to emergencies. He also explained the “Run, Hide, and Fight” protocol as a guide in dealing with dangerous situations.

The safety drill was conducted with the participation of personnel from the Baco PNP and BFP, who observed the school's emergency response, evacuation, and crowd management.

In an interview with the staff of “Ang Batis,” PCPL Emmanuel Francis Vesorde, investigator and representative of the Baco PNP on behalf of Police Major Kritofer Ian A. Dino, clearly addressed questions regarding the role of the police during the safety drill.

Vesorde discussed the PNP's role in maintaining order, assisting in crowd control and evacuation, and helping ensure the safety of students and school personnel during emergencies. He also shared observations on areas that the school could further improve in its emergency response.

He emphasized the importance of close coordination among the PNP, BFP, and the school, noting that effective communication and cooperation are essential for an organized response during emergencies.

Vesorde also advised students to remain calm, follow established safety procedures, and listen carefully to the instructions of authorities. He stressed that conducting regular safety drills helps students and personnel become more familiar with the appropriate responses during actual emergencies.

Meanwhile, FO1 John Carlo T. Valino of the BFP was also interviewed by the Ang Batis staff. He shared the observations of their team regarding the conduct of the safety drill, including the school's strengths and areas that may still be improved.

The activity provided students and personnel with an opportunity to practice emergency procedures and strengthen their awareness and preparedness, reinforcing BNHS's commitment to maintaining a safe and disaster-ready learning environment.

Competing in various individual and group categories in English and Filipino, the young journalists showcased their skills, creativity, confidence, and commitment to responsible journalism.

Beyond the awards, their performance demonstrates the value of campus journalism in developing young communicators who can write with purpose, report with accuracy, think critically, and use their voices responsibly.

The BNHS community extends its heartfelt congratulations to all the student journalists and broadcasters, as well as their dedicated coaches, advisers, teachers, parents, and supporters who guided them throughout their preparation.

Their victories are more than medals and certificates—they are a celebration of hard work, teamwork, courage, and the power of the student voice.

From the newsroom to the broadcast booth, BNHS continues to make its voice heard.

Small Device, Big Impact: BNHS Teachers Receive Voice Amplifiers as DepEd Promotes Resilience in a BANI World

BACO, Oriental Mindoro — In line with the Department of Education's commitment to promoting teachers' welfare and enhancing classroom instruction, Baco National High School (BNHS) successfully conducted the Turn-Over Ceremony of Lapel Voice Amplifiers on August 6. The event was attended by officials from the Schools Division Office (SDO) of Oriental Mindoro, along with the teaching and non-teaching personnel of the school.

The program formally opened with a video prayer, the singing of the patriotic song "Pinoy Ako," and the presentation of the DepEd Quality Policy Statement, reaffirming the Department's commitment to delivering quality education.

In his welcome address, Principal IV Michael R. Alcala warmly welcomed OIC–Assistant Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Haide M. Padua, representatives from the SDO of Oriental Mindoro, and the entire BNHS teaching and non-teaching workforce.

Alcala emphasized that while the lapel voice amplifier may appear to be a simple device, it is a meaningful resource that significantly supports the teaching and learning process.

"Though small in size, this device plays a vital role in helping teachers deliver lessons more effectively while protecting one of our most valuable teaching tools—our voice," he said.

He also expressed his sincere gratitude to the Department of Education and the Schools Division Office of Oriental Mindoro for providing resources that contribute to a more effective, learner-centered, and teacher-friendly classroom environment.

Representing Schools Division Superintendent Malou D. Servando, OIC–Assistant Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Haide M. Padua delivered an inspiring message highlighting the realities of today's BANI world—a concept that describes the complexities of modern society.

She explained that BANI stands for:

B – Brittle: A world that may appear strong and stable but can easily be disrupted by unexpected events such as pandemics, natural disasters, rapid technological advancements, and global crises.
A – Anxious: A reality where uncertainty often leads to stress, fear, and anxiety, affecting both personal well-being and professional performance.
N – Non-linear: A world where cause and effect are no longer predictable. Small actions can produce significant consequences, while major efforts may not always yield expected results.
I – Incomprehensible: An environment where many situations are difficult to understand or explain, requiring people to remain open-minded, adaptable, and willing to continuously learn.

In response to these challenges, Dr. Padua encouraged DepEd personnel to remain committed to their mission through four guiding principles: love the system despite its imperfections, love yourself by taking care of your physical and mental health while maintaining a healthy work-life balance, develop resilience to overcome challenges, and remain grateful for the opportunity to serve in the teaching profession.

A recorded message from Department of Education Secretary Sonny Angara was also presented, emphasizing the Department's continuing commitment to supporting teachers through initiatives and resources that improve both instruction and teachers' well-being.

The ceremonial turnover of the lapel voice amplifiers was led by Ms. Medelyn Del Mundo, Supply Officer of the Schools Division Office of Oriental Mindoro.

Accepting the equipment on behalf of the faculty, Mr. Nolie Paglinawan, Faculty and Employees Club (FEC) President, expressed his heartfelt appreciation to the Department of Education and the Schools Division Office for their unwavering support in providing resources that empower teachers and improve classroom instruction.

The turnover ceremony underscored DepEd's continuing recognition that investing in teachers' welfare is essential to ensuring quality, inclusive, and meaningful education. More than just a communication device, the lapel voice amplifier symbolizes the Department's commitment to equipping educators with practical tools that enable them to teach effectively while safeguarding their health in an increasingly complex and ever-changing world.

Baco MENRU nagsagawa ng EIC Campaign; SSLG, classroom officers ng Baco NHS, nakilahok

Dumalo ang mahigit 105 SSLG at classroom officers ng Baco National High School sa Information, Education, and Communication (EIC) Campaign na isinagawa ng Baco Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Unit (MENRU) sa pangunguna ni Minnie Romana Hussain, Environmental Management Specialist II, sa covered court ng paaralan, Agosto 4.

Upang maisagawa ang programa nakipag ugnayan ang sanggunian sa school principal at nagbigay sila ng kaalaman sa mga mag-aaral patungkol sa RA 9003 o Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000.

"Ang layunin nito ay para matutunan ng kabataan ang tamang waste management sa bahay, sa paaralan at sa komunidad." pahayag ni Hussain.

Ang programa ay naglalayong ipabatid sa kabataan ang tamang pagsasaayos ng basura at ang "No segregation, No collection Policy" ng bayan ng Baco.

"Maayos ang isinagawang programa, sa katunayan marami akong natutunan. Sinabi rito na kapag daw lumabag sa RA 9003 maari raw patawan ng parusa." ani Paul Cipres, pangulo ng SSLG.

Ayon naman sa isang opisyal ng Grade 10, dapat daw matutunan ng lahat ang tamang paghihiwalay ng mga basura.

Samantala, pagkatapos ng maikling pagpapaliwanag at pagbibigay kaalaman naiwan na lamang sa covered court ang presidente at bise presidente ng bawat classroom upang magsagawa ng aktibidad.

Nagkaroon ng aktuwal na waste segregation activity ang mga kabataan na nanatili.

Sa pagtatapos ng programa, tumanggap ang mga kalahok ng sertipiko ng pakikilahok at eco-seed pencils bilang pagkilala sa kanilang aktibong pakikiisa sa adbokasiya ng wastong pamamahala ng basura at pangangalaga sa kalikasan.(Samantha Audrey C.Tuyay)

COVERED CANAL, IPINAGAWA BILANG WAITING AREA PARA SA KALIGTASAN NG MGA MAG-AARAL AT G**O

Bilang bahagi ng paghahanda para sa nalalapit na pagbubukas ng klase sa ilalim ng Brigada Eskwela 2026, matagumpay na naisakatuparan ang proyekto ng paglalagay ng cover sa kanal sa harap ng paaralan upang magsilbing ligtas na waiting area at daanan ng mga mag-aaral, g**o, at mga magulang na naghihintay ng sundo o sasakyan tuwing uwian.

Nagkakahalaga ng ₱65,000 ang nasabing proyekto, na nagmula sa pondong nalikom sa Popularity Contest para sa Taong Panuruan 2025–2026. Ang inisyatibang ito ay isinakatuparan sa pangunguna ng PTA President at Vice Mayor na si Brederick V. Castillo, katuwang ang mga opisyal ng Parents-Teachers Association (PTA), administrasyon ng paaralan, at iba pang mga stakeholder.

Ayon sa pamunuan ng PTA, ang proyekto ay naging isa sa mga pangunahing prayoridad dahil sa layunin nitong mapanatili ang kaligtasan ng mga mag-aaral at g**o, lalo na sa oras ng pagpasok at pag-uwi. Sa pamamagitan ng pagkakaroon ng maayos at matibay na takip sa kanal, nabawasan ang panganib ng aksidente at naging mas maaliwalas ang pagdaloy ng mga taong dumaraan sa harap ng paaralan.

Malaki rin ang maitutulong ng bagong waiting area sa mga mag-aaral at magulang na naghihintay ng masasakyan, lalo na sa panahon ng tag-ulan at sa mga oras na matao ang paligid ng paaralan. Inaasahan na magiging mas organisado at mas ligtas ang paglabas ng mga mag-aaral matapos ang klase.

Nagpahayag naman ng pasasalamat ang pamunuan ng paaralan sa PTA, mga magulang, at sa lahat ng nakiisa at sumuporta sa Popularity Contest, sapagkat ang kanilang kontribusyon ang naging daan upang maisakatuparan ang proyektong ito.

Gayundin ang lubos na pasasalamat ng paaralan sa buong pamunuan ng bayan ng Baco sa pangunguna ng ama ng bayan, Mayor Allan Roldan sa buong suporta sa nasabing proyekto.

Patunay ang gawaing ito na ang pagtutulungan ng paaralan, mga magulang, at lokal na pamahalaan ay nagbubunga ng mga proyektong may pangmatagalang pakinabang para sa kapakanan, kaligtasan, at kaginhawaan ng buong komunidad ng paaralan.

56 na Benepisyaryo ng TUPAD Batch 2 Dumalo sa Oryentasyon sa Baco NHS

BACO, Oriental Mindoro – June 17, 2026 – Isinagawa sa Baco National High School ang orientation para sa mga benepisyaryo ng Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced Workers (TUPAD) Batch 2 bilang bahagi ng paghahanda sa implementasyon ng programa.

Pinangunahan ni G. Kim Jasper Orbasayan, TUPAD Coordinator, ang naturang oryentasyon kung saan ipinaliwanag niya ang mga mahahalagang alituntunin at kwalipikasyon ng programa. Binigyang-diin niya na hindi kwalipikadong maging benepisyaryo ang mga indibidwal na may regular at permanenteng trabaho, mga kasalukuyang empleyado ng gobyerno, at yaong mga hindi kabilang sa target beneficiaries ng TUPAD na nakatuon sa mga disadvantaged at displaced workers. Katuwang niya sa nasabing oryentasyon si Gng. Irnanie A. Enrico, BNHS BE Coordinator.

Ipinaalam din sa mga kalahok na kinakailangang mag-render ng anim (6) hanggang walong (8) oras na serbisyo bawat araw sa loob ng sampung (10) araw bilang bahagi ng kanilang partisipasyon sa programa.

Matapos ang orientation, isinagawa ang indibidwal na panayam o validation sa 56 na dumalong benepisyaryo upang matiyak ang kanilang kwalipikasyon at pagiging karapat-dapat sa programa.
Ang nasabing gawain ay naglalayong tiyakin ang maayos at epektibong pagpapatupad ng TUPAD habang nagbibigay ng pansamantalang hanapbuhay at karagdagang suporta sa mga benepisyaryo ng komunidad.

Sa pamamagitan ng sama-samang pagkilos at suporta ng iba't ibang sektor, patuloy na nagiging daan ang TUPAD upang makatulong sa pagpapabuti ng kabuhayan ng mga mamamayan at maisulong ang kapakanan ng komunidad.

Fr. Michael S. Ilao: Kauna-unahang Paring Alumnus ng Baco National High School

Buong pagmamalaking binabati ng Baco National High School si Rev. Fr. Michael S. Ilao, ang kauna-unahang alumnus ng paaralan na naging pari! Siya ay inordenahan noong ika-8 ng Hunyo taong kasalukuyan.

Ipinanganak noong Mayo 15, 1997 kina G. Melo Ilao at Ginang Alma Ilao, nagtapos si Fr. Michael sa BNHS Batch 2012–2013. Tulad ng maraming mag-aaral, dumaan din siya sa mga karaniwang karanasan ng kabataan—nagkaroon ng crush, nagkamali, natuto, at patuloy na humubog sa kanyang sarili.
Isa sa mga unang naniwala sa kanyang bokasyon ay si Gng. Rosalinda R. Dela Cruz, ang kanyang g**o noong ikaapat na taon, na nagsabing bagay siyang maging pari. Naging sakristan siya at dito higit na tumibay ang kanyang tawag sa paglilingkod sa Diyos. Naging inspirasyon din niya si Fr. Gabayno “Gabby” Oybad, ang kauna-unahang Parish Administrator ng SPCMA.

“Be a light and be lighted.” Ito ang mensaheng nais ipalaganap ni Rev. Fr. Michael S. Ilao sa kanyang ministeryo. Gaya ng kanyang apelyidong Ilao, na nagpapaalala ng liwanag, hangad niyang maging tanglaw sa mga taong dumaraan sa kadiliman ng buhay at magsilbing instrumento ng Diyos upang magbigay ng pag-asa, gabay, at inspirasyon. Kasabay nito, naniniwala rin siyang ang isang lingkod ng Diyos ay hindi lamang dapat maging liwanag sa iba kundi patuloy ring magpaliliwanag sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya, panalangin, at pakikinig sa Salita ng Diyos.
Ayon kay Fr. Michael, “Madaling sumagot sa tawag ng Diyos, ngunit mahirap manatili.”

Bilang pari, layunin niyang maging tapat na tagapaghatid ng Mabuting Balita at tagapagtaguyod ng mga salita ng Diyos, lalo na sa mga komunidad at mga katutubong nangangailangan ng pagmamahal, pag-aaruga, at espirituwal na paggabay. Sa kanyang paglalakbay bilang pari, dala niya ang paniniwalang ang tunay na liwanag ay nagmumula sa Diyos at dapat itong ibahagi sa kapwa upang mas marami pang buhay ang mabigyan ng direksyon at pag-asa.

Maraming salamat, Fr. Michael, sa pagiging inspirasyon sa kabataang Baco NHS at sa pagpapatunay na ang bawat pangarap ay maaaring maabot sa tulong ng pananampalataya, sipag, at pagtitiwala sa plano ng Diyos.
