Gratitude and joy filled Isidore school grounds morning of October 4, 2024, as the Isidore community celebrated Teachers’ Day.

The program started with an opening prayer led by Ethan Bryant C. Villegas of Grade 4-Packard, followed by the singing of the National Anthem led by Chloe J. Gaspar of Grade 5-Minsky. The ladies of the ceremony, Teacher Mary Rose Caparas, and SPG Vice President Chaniel Alexa Olaña, acknowledged all the faculty members and staff, then welcomed everyone. To set the mood of the event, the members of the Glee Organization performed the song “You Can Count on Me” with the accompaniment of ukulele played by Chloe J. Gaspar of 5-Minsky. Thereafter, Theater Guild members performed a short musical play about the significance of a teacher’s presence in the lives of children. Meanwhile, some throwback pictures of teachers were revealed prior to playing the gratitude videos of select learners. Teachers were also surprised that they had to also give a response message to the appreciation video. A “Best Educator” sash and a token of appreciation were also awarded to every Isidore educator.  Adding excitement to the event is the presentation performed by the Dance Troupe. 

On the other hand, the School Parent Teacher Association Officers also expressed their love to their children’s parents at school through a heartfelt song number, surprise video greetings from select Isidore alumni, and a meaningful message from the SPTA President, Ms. Beth Supan. Before the celebration ended, the School Principal, Dr. Arcelita Gaspar, CHRA, expressed her unwavering commitment to fostering both academic excellence and strong values that shape the culture of Isidore. With a vision prioritizing holistic education, Teacher Archie empowers the teacher-partners to instill important life lessons alongside core subjects. 

Meanwhile, the school administration prepared a delectable lunch for the faculty and staff to share. The School Administrator, Teacher Ann Marie S. Bartolome, champions every teacher’s endeavor to enhance the Isidore community, an environment where educators feel valued and motivated. All together, teachers and administrators alike, cultivate a nurturing space where learners not only excel academically but also grow into responsible, compassionate individuals which truly makes this year’s celebration a happy one! Happy Teachers’ Day!
