𝑴𝑨𝑹𝑪𝑯 17, 2026 | 𝑩𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒇 𝑺𝑹𝑪 𝑮𝒚𝒎𝒏𝒂𝒔𝒊𝒖𝒎 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑨𝒍𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒓𝒂 𝑷𝒆𝒕𝒐 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒌🙌

The 𝑨𝒍𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒓𝒂 𝑷𝒆𝒕𝒐 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒌 is one of the projects of the 𝑮𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕-𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝑨𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 (𝑮𝑷𝑻𝑨), who raised funds and with the support of the IHS Principal, Sir Randy del Rosario, LPT, made the transformation possible.

This morning of March 17, 2026, the 𝒃𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 of the first phase of the said park was held to officially open it to the student body. The Altiora Peto Park has new benches, tables, and umbrellas to make up for the empty space.

In addition to this, the 𝒏𝒆𝒘𝒍𝒚-𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝒈𝒚𝒎𝒏𝒂𝒔𝒊𝒖𝒎 was also blessed in the same day, leaving the students in awe of the neat and vibrant color of the performance space.

The essence of the blessing of the newly renovated and built structures was to showcase the school's gratitude and to earn recognition for its cooperation, resilience and teamwork. ✨

Prom — one of the most special events in a student's life. During high school, a student only gets to experience it once or twice, making it very special.

The 𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑯𝒊𝒈𝒉 𝑺𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒍 𝑭𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒚 𝑫𝒂𝒚 2026 successfully celebrated its Family Day Celebration at the 𝑹𝑮𝑪 𝑫𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒆𝒃𝒓𝒖𝒂𝒓𝒚 26, 2026. More than a festive gathering, this event was a powerful affirmation of our shared commitment to our learners and to one another as partners in education. Our dynamic hosts, 𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒄 𝑮𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒏 𝑬. 𝑮𝒖𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒂 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝑨𝒏𝒏 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒕𝒕 𝑪. 𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒏𝒈𝒂, created an energetic mood for everyone.

With the theme“𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑭𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒚, 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑭𝒂𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒚, 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑺𝑹𝑪 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒚,”we were reminded that education flourishes when parents, teachers, and school leaders move forward together with unity, trust, and a common vision.

Our celebration opened with a heartfelt prayer led by 𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝑾𝒂𝒚𝒍𝒐𝒏 𝑪𝒂𝒓𝒍 𝑭. 𝑮𝒂𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒈, 𝑳𝑷𝑻, 𝑰𝑯𝑺 𝑭𝒂𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒚 𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕, grounding our activities in gratitude and faith.

It is about reforms rooted in values. It is about strengthening our commitment to provide effective, meaningful, and responsive education to every learner entrusted to our care.

He reminded everyone that while academic excellence is a priority, values formation remains at the core of our mission. Initiatives such as 𝑯𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒐𝒆𝒔, 𝑲𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑫𝒂𝒚, 𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝑫𝒂𝒚, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑪𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑪𝒂𝒎𝒑𝒂𝒊𝒈𝒏𝒔 reflect our belief that education must shape not only intelligent minds but also compassionate hearts.

A declaration that we choose collaboration over conflict.
A declaration that we promote discipline over disorder.
A declaration that we stand against bullying, va**ng, littering, and negativity.
A declaration that we will spread love, kindness, and respect.

There is so much to accomplish. There are facilities to build. Programs to improve. Systems to refine. But above all, there are young lives to guide.

And so we say this again, with conviction and hope:
We need you, parents.
We need you, teachers.
We need you, students.

Because only together can we build not just better facilities, but a stronger, more united, and value-driven educational community.

Thank you to everyone who participated, supported, organized, and celebrated with us.

In celebration of the 81st Founding Anniversary of Santa Rita College of Pampanga, Inc., the campus came alive with vibrant and imaginative booths organized by the creative students of the IHS Department during the three-day Foundation Week from February 18–20, 2026. From horror booths and movie booths to jail booths and marriage booths, a wide array of student-led attractions were mounted, adding excitement and color to the celebration. Each booth reflected not only the students’ creativity and artistry but also their dedication, teamwork, and innovative thinking. More than just a source of entertainment, this activity plays a significant role in student development. The booth initiative is highly encouraged as it nurtures entrepreneurial skills at an early stage. Through hands-on experience, students engage in basic business planning, simple feasibility studies, marketing strategies, budgeting, and income-generating efforts. These practical experiences help prepare them for future ventures in business and leadership. Indeed, it was a perfect combination of fun and learning—where enjoyment met education, and creativity blended with enterprise. Anchored on the theme, “One Heart, One Fun! SRC at 81!” the activity embodied unity, collaboration, and school spirit. With one heart, the SRC community celebrated not only its legacy but also the promising potential of its young entrepreneurs and innovators.

On the 18th day of February, Santa Rita College of Pampanga celebrated their 81st founding anniversary. The school prepared a program for the Silver and Gold Jubilarians from batch 2001 and batch 1976. It was definitely an unforgettable opportunity for the Jubilarians to be able to visit their Alma Mater once more after all the years that passed.

As the event commenced, each representative from the Silver and Gold Jubilarians shared the memories they treasured dearly to this day. Witnessing their genuine smiles, playful laughter, and even their pure friendship made the purpose of the ceremony more apparent to everyone. Before the event ended, all Silver and Gold Jubilarians present in the ceremony were acknowledged. They received a certificate for being a part of the SRC family. While listening to their experiences, it was long understood that it wasn’t just a simple gathering, but a revelation of the influence SRC had on each of them.

Jubilarians surely experienced different backgrounds, yet value the same thing: the discipline and hope for a brighter tomorrow. Finally, as they stood together－smiling wide and posing for the picture－the realization finally struck; the best way to predict the future is to understand the past we carry with us, and learn how to accept things without focusing on the burden that come from within.

𝑰𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒈 𝑷𝒖𝒔𝒐, 𝑰𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒂𝒚𝒂: 𝑺𝒊𝒎𝒖𝒍𝒂 𝒏𝒈 𝑰𝒌𝒂-81 𝑭𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑫𝒂𝒚 𝒏𝒂 𝑷𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒈𝒑𝒂𝒍𝒂 𝒏𝒈 𝑴𝒊𝒔𝒂 𝒂𝒕 𝑨𝒔𝒉 𝑾𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒅𝒂𝒚

Ngayong araw ay minarkahan ang pagsisimula ng ika-81 Foundation Day ng ating paaralan, isang pagdiriwang na binuksan sa isang natatanging paraan—sa pamamagitan ng isang banal na Misa at paggunita ng Ash Wednesday. Sa temang "One Heart, One Fun," pinagsama-sama nito ang espirituwal na pagninilay at ang kagalakan ng paggunita sa mga dekada ng kasaysayan at tagumpay.

Nagsimula ang araw sa isang Holy Mass, na idinaos upang basbasan ang mga gawaing magaganap sa buong selebrasyon ng Foundation Day. Mas lalong naging makahulugan ang Misa dahil kasabay nito ang paggunita sa Ash Wednesday, 𝒂𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒊𝒎𝒖𝒍𝒂 𝒏𝒈 𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒉𝒐𝒏 𝒏𝒈 𝑲𝒖𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒎𝒂. Sa pagpapahid ng abo sa noo ng mga dumalo, ipinaalala sa lahat ang kahalagahan ng pagpapakumbaba, pagsisisi, at espirituwal na pagbabago. Ang sandaling ito ay nagbigay ng malalim na kahulugan sa pagbubukas ng pagdiriwang, na nagbigay-diin sa pagkakaisa ng komunidad sa pananampalataya at pagpapahalaga sa kanilang pinagmulan. Ang pagkakaroon ng Misa sa unang araw ng Foundation Day ay nagsilbing pundasyon para sa lahat ng mga susunod na aktibidad. Hindi lamang ito isang tradisyonal na pagbubukas, kundi isang pagkilala sa mga halaga at prinsipyo na nagpapatuloy na gumagabay sa ating institusyon sa loob ng 81 taon. Ang pagtitipon ay nagpakita ng "𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕," na sumisimbolo sa pagkakaisa at pagmamahalan ng bawat isa sa komunidad—mga mag-aaral, g**o, kawani, at mga alumni. Sa kabila ng solemnidad ng Ash Wednesday, ang diwa ng "𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑭𝒖𝒏" ay nanatiling buhay. Ito ay makikita sa kagalakan ng muling pagsasama-sama, ang pag-asa para sa mga nakatakdang programa, at ang pagmamalaki sa mga nakamit ng institusyon.

Ang Foundation Day ay hindi lamang paggunita sa nakaraan, kundi isang inspirasyon para sa kinabukasan, kung saan ang bawat isa ay inaanyayahang maging bahagi ng patuloy na paglago at pag-unlad. Ang unang araw na ito ay tunay na naglatag ng isang espirituwal at masayang tono para sa lahat ng mga kaganapan.

Ngayong Pebrero 18, 2026, nagdiwang ang Santa Rita College of Pampanga, Inc. ng ika-81 na anibersaryo na may temang "𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑭𝒖𝒏, 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕, 𝑺𝑹𝑪 @81!"

Nagsimula ang selebrasyon sa makulay na Grand Parade mula alas-6:30 ng umaga hanggang alas-7:20, paikot ng San Juan at San Vicente bago muling bumalik sa SRC. Binubuo ang parada ng iba't ibang departamento magmula sa Parade of Colors na pinangunahan ng mga Cadets, kasunod ang 𝑬𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝑫𝒆𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕, sinundan ng 𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑯𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒔𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒍 𝑫𝒆𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕 at 𝑪𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒈𝒆 𝑫𝒆𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕. Kasama rin sa parada ang mga 𝑺𝒊𝒍𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒕 𝑮𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑱𝒖𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏𝒔, na nagbigay ng sigla at alaala sa okasyon. Makikita ang sigla at galak ng bawat estudyante na may hawak na kulay asul at dilaw na flaglets bilang pagwawagayway ng kanilang suporta at pagmamahal sa paaralan.

Ang Grand Parade ng SRC ay hindi lamang paggunita sa nakaraan at kasalukuyan, kundi simbolo rin ng pagkakaisa at pagmamalasakit ng bawat estudyante, g**o, at alumni sa patuloy na pag-unlad ng paaralan. 💛🩵
