Warmest greetings to all our wonderful teachers and staff celebrating their birthdays this month of April! 🌸✨

To address the classroom-based challenges they encountered during their internship at City of Balanga National High School-JHS for SY 2025–2026, the pre-service teachers (PSTs) from Asia Pacific College of Advanced Studies (APCAS) presented their final defense of action research projects at the school’s audio-visual room on April 21, 2026, starting at 1:00 p.m. The panel was composed of Mary Ann G. Balajo, Department Head-Designate in English; Dr. Doreen Rose R. Estrella, Dean of the College of Education at APCAS; and Dr. Jennifer G. De Guzman, School Principal IV.

The session proved productive and meaningful as the future teachers transformed real classroom problems they had experienced into action research studies aimed at finding solutions and interventions. This process not only sharpened their research skills but also prepared them to become reflective educators who can respond to challenges with practical strategies.

To help participants recognize common workplace stressors and their effects on health, learn practical techniques for organizing and securing digital files, and practice self-care strategies to maintain work-life balance while fostering a supportive, stigma-free culture of mental wellness are the objectives of the 2026 Summer Enhancement Seminar for Non-Teaching Personnel that was successfully held at the school’s audio-visual room on April 20–21, 2026.

On the first day, Mrs. Sarah B. Cruz, Guidance Counselor III, delivered a session on The Art of Managing Stress, by having guided participants in identifying stress triggers and coping strategies. This was followed by Ms. Joyce Ann D. Gunio, Administrative Officer II, who discussed Fundamentals of Mail Merge and Data Management for Administrative Efficiency. Both speakers engaged participants in hands-on activities, ensuring that learning was applied directly to their work context.

The second day featured Dr. Jayvie Villazor, Assistant Professor II at Bataan Peninsula State University and Consultant/Psychologist at Fort Magsaysay Philippine Army Station Hospital, who spoke on Cultivating Mental Wellness and Psychological Safety in the Government Workforce. His session encouraged participants to reflect on their character strengths and how these can be harnessed to build resilience and a healthier workplace environment.

The seminar proved to be both productive and meaningful, by having given participants valuable insights and practical takeaways. These lessons will not only enhance their efficiency and well-being at work but also enrich their roles at home as parents, spouses, and members of the community.
