Embracing the values of discipline, courage, and service, the Scout Club of Francisco Bustamante National High School (FBNHS) formally welcomed its newest members during its 2026 investiture ceremony on October 23, marking the start of their service to the school and community.

The ceremony marked the new chapter for the incoming Scouts as they pledged to uphold the principles of Scouting and embrace the responsibilities that come with being members of the organization.

“As you wear the Scout, bear in mind that you are wearing the Scout all over the world, and therefore you have to do your best to avoid anything that would spoil and stain the dignity of a Scout,” said Sir Mariquito Cuyos, school scouting representative.

Sir Cuyos also urged parents to be consistent in supporting their children, stressing the importance of parental guidance, encouragement, and prayers as young scouts face challenges and fulfill their responsibilities.

“I hope and pray that this investiture will unrobe your old self, the new in you, and wear the new Scout which is discipline, always ready, and very much strong and brave enough,” he added.

Through the investiture, the new Scouts began their journey toward becoming disciplined and dependable members of the school and community, carrying their commitment to service beyond the ceremony.

Assessing its compliance with school health standards, Francisco Bustamante National High School (FBNHS) underwent the OK sa DepEd (OKD) evaluation on October 19 at the school’s Teen Center to review the implementation of its health programs and identify areas for improvement.

The evaluation covered six priority programs to determine their alignment with OKD objectives and the health and wellness needs of learners.

“The main purpose for this evaluation is to ensure that the school provides a healthy environment and to promote a culture of health and wellness that leads into a journey towards a healthier and safer school,” said Neli Ann Sebellino, district nurse.

Meanwhile, Brechtnald V. Sison, Cluster 15 nurse and Division School Canteen focal person, identified areas for improvement based on the documents presented and urged the school to sustain established health protocols.

“Schools must sustain the implementation of health programs and address the identified areas for improvement,” Sison emphasized.

Following the evaluation, FBNHS aims to address the identified gaps and sustain its health initiatives to foster a safer, healthier, and more supportive learning environment for its learners.

Extending student protection beyond school grounds, Francisco Bustamante National High School (FBNHS) reinforced personal safety awareness among learners through preventive reminders aligned with Department of Education (DepEd) Order No. 006, s. 2026.

The advisory highlighted practical precautions under the school’s child protection initiatives to help learners recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations:

1. Avoid secluded or poorly monitored areas.

2. Decline rides from unfamiliar or unauthorized individuals.

3. Travel with trusted companions whenever possible.

4. Stay alert and report suspicious or unsafe situations to a trusted adult or school authority.

Learners are also encouraged to establish personal boundaries, say “no” to uncomfortable situations, and promptly report concerns to teachers or guidance counselors to help prevent abuse, violence, bullying, and other threats to their welfare.

Through these preventive measures, FBNHS underscored that protecting learners requires coordinated action among students, school personnel, families, and communities to promote safer environments both inside and outside school premises.

Encouraging students to seek timely mental health support, Francisco Bustamante National High School’s (FBNHS) Teen Center marked Su***de Awareness Month with a program on September 30, 2026, emphasizing the importance of early intervention and accessible guidance services.

The program highlighted the importance of recognizing unusual changes in students’ routines and behavior, encouraging them to seek help when they experience mental health concerns or notice someone who may need support.

“As I said, it’s okay not to be okay. All feelings are valid. Kana ganing dili na usual imong routine, naga-manifest ka’g unusual behavior ba, always remember nga daghan ug tao nga makatabang saimo just like your friends, of course your family, pero if dili accountable, you can come here sa Teen Center,” said Guidance Counselor II Rhea O. Luib.

Luib emphasized that students can turn to trusted friends, family members, or the Teen Center when changes in their usual routines or behavior raise concerns about their well-being.

“All of us dapat maging advocate sa mental health,” Luib stressed. “Kasi sometimes ma importante lang ang mental health kung naa nay na-depress, kung naa nay na-diagnose, ug naa nay mag-suicide.”

Moving forward, the school’s guidance services will continue to provide students with access to mental health support, while sustained awareness and early intervention remain essential to ensure that learners can voice their concerns and receive help before their struggles intensify.

Safety is not a one-time commitment or a lesson confined to a single week. It is a culture that must be practiced, a responsibility that must be shared, and a way of life that every individual must uphold.

As the National School Safety Week kicks off, Francisco Bustamante National High School (FBNHS) underscores the importance of building a safety-conscious community by encouraging every Bustamanian not only to understand safety protocols but also to put them into practice in their daily lives. From making responsible decisions to remaining alert and looking out for others, every action contributes to a safer school environment.

Through this initiative, FBNHS reinforces its commitment to ensuring that safety goes beyond awareness and becomes a lasting habit among all Bustamanians.

Watch the full video prepared by the BustaVanguards during the Flag-Raising Ceremony on October 12, and discover how we can all take part in making safety a shared commitment.

Promoting safety and encouraging appropriate student participation , F. Bustamante National High School (FBNHS) celebrated the National Safety Week to promote proactive action and strengthen efforts to address potential threats to student safety today, October 12.

The celebration, held in line with DepEd Order No. 006, s. 2026, emphasizes the significance of preventing student threats and conflicts through the promotion of proactive measures to ensure a safe and peaceful learning environment.

“The highlight and purpose of this celebration are to remind all teachers, students, and members of the school community that safety is essential to learning,” said Sir Marven San Pascual, Junior High School Assistant to the Principal.

Moreover, Sir Welito I. Rosal, School Principal, urged students to settle disagreements through open communication rather than resorting to violence.

“Safety should be an everyday concern, not just something we observe during this particular week,” Sir Rosal stressed. “God gave us the ability to communicate so that when misunderstandings arise, we can talk things through and resolve our differences peacefully.”

In line with this, the school will continue integrating safety awareness into classroom discussions throughout the week, encouraging students and teachers to uphold the Panata ng Buong Komunidad para sa Mas Ligtas na Paaralan and practice preventive measures beyond the celebration.

“We trained them not only to compete but, more importantly, to think, to persist, and to solve," said coach Dagohoy. “The countless hours of training and hard work finally paid off as they turned their dedication into gold-medal victories on the international competition.”

Meanwhile, the Senior Secondary Category delegates delivered strong performances, with Kassean Nicole Aringo (10-King Sejong), Chad Andrei Tumala (11-Europium), Arvin Jr. Duhaylungsod (11-Europium), Angel Kristine Bicera (12-Descartes), Prince Jerick Casinillo (12-Descartes) , Frithz Basanta (12-Descartes) sweeping gold medals in the competition.

With eight medals earned in their first international competition, the student-quizzers now set their sights on the next round of competition, carrying with them the skills, perseverance, and experience gained from the TIMO.

To streamline the application process for special programs, the Department of Education (DepEd) Davao City Division visited schools in Cluster XIII seeking to offer special programs and introduced the Online Application System (OAS) on October 8, 2026.

The digital platform allows schools to submit required documents and track their applications online, aiming to speed up processing, minimize the need for supervision, and reduce paper-based submissions.

“Given that this is our first time to undergo this process of application, the OAS will be a helpful tool for us not only in making the process paperless, but for real-time tracking of the things we still lack to approve our application,” said Sir Darzenne Gomubao, a Special Program in Journalism applicant.

Through the OAS, applicant schools can monitor their compliance with documentary requirements and identify deficiencies that need to be addressed, helping make the application process more organized and reducing potential delays.
