The Renaissance

Paparating na ang UPCAT results, ramdam na ang kaba at ang halo ng pag-asa. 📩✨
Sa bawat puyat, dasal, at sakripisyo, unti-unti nang nagbubukas ang sagot sa lahat ng “what ifs.”

Konting hintay na lang… anuman ang kalabasan, tandaan; ikaw pa rin ang bida sa sarili mong kwento. ♥️

ROSARIO, PASIG CITY — Eusebio High School recognized over 707 students during its Recognition Day held on March 31, 2026, following a year of academic challenges.

The ceremony kicked off with the entrance of colors led by the EHS Cadettes, headed by Mr. Nestor De Guzman.

Moving forward, Mr. Ray Mon Pereyra, Assistant to the Principal for Junior High School, delivered the welcome remarks to greet the attendees and set the tone of the ceremony. This was followed by Dr. Gilbert O. Inocencio, who gave an inspiring message that uplifted everyone’s spirits.

After the messages from distinguished speakers, an intermission number was presented by the EHS Folkloric Dance Troupe, headed by Ma’am Marjorie Mariano, showcasing the artistry and talents of Eusebians.

Additionally, Ms. OJ Arci, a school alumna from Batch 2012, delivered the keynote speech. She highlighted her past experiences—the challenges, opportunities, and motivations that helped her achieve her dreams. She also shared that, after more than 14 years, returning to the school felt different.

“High school is the best years of my life... those were the years I felt a lot of emotions,” Ms. Arci stated, explaining why she continues to come back to EHS.

The recognition continued from Grade 7 to Grade 11.

“𝘼𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙜𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚. 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙖𝙜𝙙𝙞𝙙𝙞𝙠𝙩𝙖 𝙨𝙖 𝙞𝙣𝙮𝙤, 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙤 𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙮, 𝙞𝙩’𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚. 𝘿𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮, 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙙… 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠!”

Under the open space of their own school court, the 20th Commencement Exercise of EHS Batch 2026 found themselves bidding goodbye to the place they once called their second home.

At the break of day, Grade 12 candidates from different strands walked the red carpet with their parents to their assigned seats. The Entrance of Colors by the CAT Cadets made the morning feel official, with the Philippine and alma mater flags waving proudly.

The students sang the Philippine National Anthem, “Tanging Yaman,” the NCR hymn, and the Pasig City hymn, all conducted by Christian Bjorn Cunanan, with slight variations in their singing of each piece as it echoed throughout the school grounds.

Finally, it was time for the turning of the sablay. The graduating class was presented by Dr. Gilbert O. Inocencio, with Dr. Caesar S. Gonzales and Dr. Romela M. Cruz certifying and recommending the graduates, represented by Dr. Victor M. Javena. With pride, the students swiftly turned their sablay to the right, revealing the Baybayin inscription of “PAG-ASA.”

The most awaited moment arrived. With over 500 graduates from the STEM, HUMSS, and ABM strands, each student proudly received their diploma and bowed in honor of two years of hard work and dedication.

Excitement filled the air as students welcomed Hon. Victor Ma. Regis N. Sotto, City Mayor of Pasig, spoke about the true meaning of the sablay, emphasizing that as products of Eusebio High School, they carry the hope that continues to flow throughout the city.

Shortly after, Hon. Roman T. Romulo, Congressman, shared a story from an interview about how children will always choose to be with their parents.

After the speeches, the awards ceremony began, honoring over 290 students, including the first-ranker, Jessa Mae S. Cortes, and second-ranker, Gage Francis T. Mendoza. All fell silent as Cortes delivered her words of gratitude, reminding everyone that life isn’t a race and quoting Billy Joel’s “Vienna”: “Slow down, you’re doing fine; you can’t be everything you want to be before your time.”

And to start the beginning of the end, after the speeches, the commencement exercise transitioned into its final phase, highlighted by the singing of the year’s graduation song, “Golden Shine,” led by Mr. Cunanan.

Amidst the quiet tears of batchmates and teachers, the event proceeded to the Class Pledge led by Mr. Mendoza, emphasizing the values of becoming responsible Filipino citizens in the future.

To conclude, for one last time, the graduates sang the division hymn and the school hymn, honoring Eusebio High School, the place that had long felt like home to them.

According to Morante, being named the first-ranking student is a roller coaster of emotions, with uncertainty, disbelief, and pressure all hitting him at once.

"It's a lot of mixed emotions happening simultaneously... I also feel pressure for the future... I believe I need to maintain with so much more care," Morante stated.

His adviser, Ms. Beatriz Yarin, expressed her pride in Morante’s achievement. According to her, Morante is both consistent and exceptional in everything he does. Yarin shared, "...it’s always fulfilling and exciting to see him actually achieve this."

Nonetheless, the completion rites were actively attended and witnessed by the school administration, members of the faculty, proud parents, and the barangay council.
