Masbate Province welcomed another homegrown education leader as Arvin R. Sese, CESO VI formally assumed his new post as Assistant Schools Division Superintendent of the Schools Division Office of Masbate Province.

Sese was welcomed during a ceremony at the SDO Masbate Second Floor Lobby, marking his transition from the Schools Division Office of Camarines Sur, where he served almost 3 years before returning to his home province.

He was accompanied by Schools Division Superintendent Norma B. Samantela of Camarines Sur, together with selected Education Program Supervisors (EPSs), Public Schools District Supervisors (PSDSs), and members of the Association of Camarines Sur Secondary School Administrators (ACSSSA).

In her message, Samantela described Sese as a valuable member of the Camarines Sur education community and expressed her confidence in his contribution to his home division.

“We are now giving you our gem, your gem. Sir Arvin is an asset to our division, and much more now that he is with you, in his own place,” Samantela said.

The SDO Masbate leadership, led by Schools Division Superintendent Joel E. Caolboy and OIC Assistant Schools Division Superintendent Mark Anthony Rupa, welcomed Sese and the visiting Camarines Sur delegation. Division EPSs, PSDSs, and unit heads also joined the welcome ceremony.

For Caolboy, Sese’s return brings another Masbateno leader into the provincial division, while also renewing a professional partnership that dates back to their earlier service as PSDSs in the City Schools Division of Masbate.

“Masbate is blessed to have another Masbateno leader who has been serving Masbate for quite some time, but in the city, and now he is in the province. It is like the old times when we were both PSDSs in the city. We are excited to work and continue the journey, this time with the Masbate Province,” Caolboy said.

In his response, Sese looked back on his journey in Camarines Sur and acknowledged the people who became his source of strength as he adjusted to life and work away from his home province.

His return to Masbate, he said, carries both personal significance and a renewed responsibility to serve the province that shaped his roots.

Sese also assured the SDO Masbate community that he intends to bring the lessons and experiences he gained from Camarines Sur into his new assignment.

“I am here to work and serve, not to be served,” Sese said, underscoring his commitment to public service and his role in supporting the division’s programs, schools, teachers, and learners.

His appointment adds another homegrown leader to the ranks of Masbate’s education officials, bringing back to the province an education leader whose professional journey has been shaped by service both in his hometown and in another division.

Strengthening the implementation of learner-centered programs and bringing proven practices closer to Masbate schools drove the three-day benchmarking activity of the Schools Division Office (SDO) of Masbate Province in the National Capital Region.

Dubbed “ARAL on Track: Implementation Under the Lens,” the initiative brought education officials from Masbate to the DepEd National Capital Region (NCR) office and selected schools in Quezon City and Navotas City to examine program implementation, school-based practices, and strategies that support learner development.

OIC-Schools Division Superintendent Joel E. Caolboy led the Masbate delegation, which included Education Program Supervisors (EPSs), Public Schools District Supervisors (PSDSs), and other key personnel.

The first day focused on institutional benchmarking and knowledge exchange at the DepEd NCR office, where Assistant Secretary Jocelyn D. R. Andaya and DepEd NCR officials hosted the delegation.

Discussions covered administrative workflows, program implementation, monitoring mechanisms, pedagogical strategies, and approaches to improving learner outcomes.

The exchange provided both offices an opportunity to share practices and examine how strategies developed in different educational contexts could be adapted to address local needs.

For SDO Masbate, the engagement offered a closer look at systems and practices that could inform the division’s continuing efforts to improve program delivery and school support.

School-level implementation took center stage on the second day.

San Roque Elementary School in Navotas City welcomed the Masbate delegation for an ocular visit focused on its implementation of the ARAL Program.

EPSs and PSDSs observed how the program was carried out at the school level and engaged with school personnel about their implementation processes, interventions, and mechanisms for supporting learners who need additional academic assistance.

The delegation proceeded to Batino Elementary School in Quezon City in the afternoon to observe its Special Needs Education (SNED) Program.

The visit provided firsthand insights into inclusive education practices and the systems used to respond to learners with diverse educational needs.

Moving from the division office to actual school settings allowed the participants to examine how policies and program directions translate into day-to-day practices in schools.

Personnel wellness formed part of the third and final day.

Dr. Neth Penetrante facilitated a wellness session focusing on mental health in the workplace, personal well-being, and the importance of maintaining happiness and fulfillment in public service.

Beyond systems and programs, the session highlighted the role of personnel well-being in sustaining effective education services.

Insights from the three-day activity were consolidated through an exchange of reflections and discussions on possible ways forward for SDO Masbate Province.

The benchmarking activity provided the division with an opportunity to observe practices in another regional context, assess their relevance to Masbate, and identify approaches that could support stronger implementation of education programs.

For SDO Masbate, “ARAL on Track: Implementation Under the Lens” became an avenue for translating observation and knowledge exchange into directions for continuous improvement, stronger school support, and more responsive services for learners.

An emotional reflection on purpose, service, and leadership became the highlight of the 3rd CID Coordination Meeting as Curriculum Implementation Division (CID) personnel of the Schools Division Office of Masbate were challenged to “Lead with Heart and Lead with Joy” during a session facilitated by educator, life coach, and human resource development practitioner Joseph Noel A. Titar of PRISM Continuing Education and Leadership Consulting Services on September 23-24,2026 at Trios Lake Resort, Palani, Balud, Masbate.

Through meaningful reflective activities, Titar encouraged the participants to look beyond their daily responsibilities and reconnect with the purpose behind their work in education. The session culminated in an emotional moment as CID personnel reflected on their experiences, the people they serve, and their continuing commitment to Masbateno learners and teachers.

The session formed part of the two-day 3rd CID Coordination Meeting held on September 23-24, 2026, at Trios Lake Resort, which brought together CID personnel for reflection, evaluation, planning, and professional development.

The activity was also attended by Schools Division Superintendent Joel E. Caolboy, who commended the CID team for its continuing dedication to serving Masbateno learners and teachers with purpose and commitment.

Caolboy recognized the personnel for consistently carrying out their responsibilities and striving to give their best in delivering programs and services that support schools, teachers, and learners across the division.

Meanwhile, CID Chief Marma L. Capellan led the post-evaluation of two major division activities, the Division Festival of Talents (DFOT) and the Division Schools Press Conference (DSPC).

The evaluation provided the team with an opportunity to review the implementation of both activities, recognize successful practices, identify challenges, and determine areas for improvement in future division-wide programs.

The CID also presented its targets and priority activities for the final quarter of 2026. The discussions focused on aligning deliverables, strengthening coordination, and ensuring that planned activities remain responsive to the needs of schools and stakeholders.

Plans for the upcoming benchmarking activity in the National Capital Region on September 27-30, 2026, were also finalized. The activity aims to provide opportunities for the team to observe practices, exchange ideas, and gather insights that may contribute to the continuous improvement of CID programs and operations.

Adding to the learning component of the meeting, PDO II Jomarie Canelas presented the Revised Learning Resources (LR) Portal. The presentation guided CID personnel through the resources available on the portal and highlighted how these materials can support teachers in accessing appropriate learning resources.

More than a coordination meeting, the two-day gathering became an opportunity for the CID team to pause, reflect, evaluate, and realign.

As the division moves into the final quarter of 2026, CID personnel carry with them a renewed sense of purpose and a shared commitment to lead with heart, serve with joy, and continue working for the benefit of every Masbateno learner.
