San Pablo City – Bukod sa kasayahang naidulot ng isang linggong pestibal sa Brgy. San Cristobal, lunsod na ito, kaugnay sa ipinagdiwang na kapistahan noong Biyernes, Hulyo 25, ay nagawa rin nitong likhain ang pagkakaisa at pagsasama-sama ng mga residente na nagbihis sa dating imahe ng naturang lugar.
Ang pestibal na sinimulan noong Hulyo 19 ay kinapalooban ng gabi-gabing pagtatanghal tulad ng dance contest, singing contest, Battle of the Band, Ms. Gay Competition at Grand Concert na tumagal hanggang Hulyo 24. Ang araw ng kapistahan ay inihandog ng mga taga barangay bilang parangal sa kanilang Patrong San Cristobal sa pamamagitan ng prusisyon.
Sa pamumuno ni Chairman Benjamin “Benbong” M. Felismino II ay idinaos rin sa naturang barangay ang timpalak kalinisan sa pagitan ng pitong (7) purok na nasasakupan, na pawang nagwagi ayon sa hatol na inihayag ni Dr. Lucy Celino ng City Health Office, tanda ng pagkakaisa ng mga residente ng barangay.
Kauna-unahang nangyari sa naturang barangay ang sama-samang pagtataguyod ng isang layunin na isinulong ng barangay council. Nakisama ang lahat mula sa nakaririwasa hanggang sa karaniwang mamamayan sa hinahangad na katahimikan ng pamayanan, maging ang mga nagtatrabaho sa ibayong dagat kahit nasa malayo ay nakisama sa nasabing pagdiriwang.

THE WAY TO LOVING MATHEMATICS
Academicians are one in saying that Mathematics is the Queen of Sciences. Mathematics provides one of the more essential foundations of the learning process. It is indispensable tool in learning the concepts in the fields of science and commerce.
Mathematics is one of the subjects students are afraid of because they find it difficult to comprehend. Lack of interest in this subject and inadequate mathematical skills of the students are the major reasons why their mathematics performance are at low level. It certainly affects not just their academic performance, but also their potential to be great leaders of our country.
The result of 2003 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) showed that students of the Philippines did not perform well in Mathematics, landing at the bottom together with the likes of South Africa, Ghana, and Botswana.
In order to resolve this academic crisis, the Department of Education in partnership with the Mathematics Teachers Association of the Philippines (MTAP) has come up with the tutorial program “THE MTAP-DEPED Saturday Mathematics Program”.
In the Division of San Pablo City, the MTAP-San Pablo Chapter is very active in helping the schools in improving the mathematics performance of their students. According to Christian Lloyd Tan, a 2008 MTAP Regional Champion (Level II) from San Pablo City Science High School, the program helped him a lot in exploring Mathematics and it improved his problem solving skills.
Last July 19, 2008, there was an MTAP fever in the Division of San Pablo City. There was an increased in the number of MTAP training centers and participants in public secondary schools. This indicates that more students are enjoying the program. It shows that the students and their parents believe in the effectiveness of the program in improving their mathematical skills. This also reveals that more students are beginning to enjoy and love Mathematics.(ALBERT T. SAUL/Math Teacher/San Pablo City Science High School)
