In its continuing commitment to ensuring a safe and supportive learning environment, Talavera National High School (TNHS), through its Care Center and Discipline Committee, conducted a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) on October 28, 2026.
The activity brought together selected learners to share their insights, experiences, and recommendations on school safety, mental health, and overall well-being. Participants also raised observations and concerns regarding school facilities and existing safety measures, providing valuable inputs for identifying areas that need improvement.
The discussion was facilitated by Registered Guidance Counselors who guided the participants in expressing their perspectives and engaging in meaningful conversations about creating a safer and more mentally healthy school community.
The invited facilitators were Marty Ian Gideon T. Flores, RGC, of the Philippine Guidance & Counseling Association – Pangasinan Chapter; Melanie R. Gabriel, RGC, and Everly V. Santos, RGC, of the Pangasinan State University School of Advanced Studies; and Haidee T. Simon, RGC, Guidance Counselor of Exequiel R. Lina National High School in Licab, Nueva Ecija.
Through this initiative, TNHS continues to recognize the importance of listening to learners’ voices in strengthening school safety measures and promoting a school environment where every learner feels safe, heard, supported, and valued.
