DEPED REVISES GUIDELINES IN SELECTION OF HONOR STUDENTS
The Department of Education (DepEd) has revised its guidelines in the selection of honor pupils and students in public elementary and secondary schools, respectively, for the current school year which is scheduled to end in late March 2010.
The guidelines, contained in DepEd Order No. 92, series of 2009, and issued recently by Education Secretary Jesli A. Lapus, stipulate that candidates for honors at any elementary grade or high school year level shall be chosen from among the top 10 pupils or students of the school.
They must not have a final rating lower than 80 percent in any subject or learning area, the DepEd said.
The guidelines mandate that the top 10 pupils/students, who must be of good moral conduct, shall be determined through ranking using the 7-3 point system where 7 points represent academic performance and 3 points co-curricular activities.
In the ranking of honors for graduating elementary pupils and high school students, only the grades in the current curriculum year shall be included, thereby disregarding their ratings in the previous curriculum levels.
The guidelines also provide that transferees shall be considered in the ranking of honor children provided they were enrolled in the school not later than the second week of classes in school year 2009-2010.
The final rating shall be computed to the three decimal places, the guidelines said, adding that in case of tie, both candidates shall be declared in the same honor ranking, say, both as valedictorians, salutatorians, first honorable mentions and so on.
The rules further gave recognition to achievements of pupils/students in specific academic discipline such as Mathematics, Science and English or in co-curricular areas including athletics, campus journalism and performing arts.
Duly recognized annexes of public elementary and secondary schools with complete curriculum grades or year levels have now been allowed by the education department to choose their own set of honor school children.
The DepEd named the school principal as chairman of the School Selection Committee (with three qualified teachers as members) which it required to officially announce the selected honor pupils/students not later than 15 days before the school's graduation day.
In case of protest, the DepEd required the aggrieved candidate with his or her parents to file the complaint to the school head within five working days from the formal announcement.
The protest shall be settled by the school selection board within five days from the filing of the complaint, the education department said. (PNA-Provincial)

BAKIT PA?
Sumapit na sa sukdulan ang ika-3 termino sina Cavite Gov. Ayong Maliksi at Laguna Gov. Teresita Lazaro na nakatakdang magtapos sa 2010, kasabay ng maraming LGU Chief Executive ng mga bayan at lunsod dito sa Calabarzon.
Masigla na ang takbo ng pulitika sa mga nasabing lugar sa kadahilanang wala nga namang depending champion kung baga sa makakalaban ng mga challenger sa darating na 2010 election dahilan sa term limit ng mga nakaupong opisyal.
Sa lalawigan ng Laguna ay apat ang kompirmadong nag-gigirian na sa pagka-gobernador na kinabibilangan nina dating gobernador Joey Lina, Vice-Governor Ramil Hernandez, Mayor E.R. Ejercito at provincial administrator Dennis S. Lazaro, samantalang sa lalawigan ng Cavite ay ang napapabalitang manok ni Gob. Ayong na si Vice-Gov. Ompong Campaña at Jonvic Remulla ng Partido Magdalo.
Tatakbong muli sa reeleksyon sina Quezon Gov. Raffy Nantes, Rizal Gov. Jun Ynares at ang napapabalitang nililigawan ng administrasyon na ipanlabang pangalawang-pangulo ng bansa subalit matatag ang paninindigang hindi iiwan ang Batangas bilang gobernador ng lalawigan si Gob. Vilma Santos-Recto.
Last term na rin ni Lucena City Mayor Ramon Talaga dangan nga lamang at inabot ng 57 day suspension sapagkat nawalang bisa na ang TRO na ibinigay ng hukuman sa panahon ng kanyang 2nd term kung saan ang napigil ay ang pagpapatupad nito. Medyo may epekto ito sa kung sino man ang mamanukin ni Talaga at magpapalutang sa tsansa ni Vice-Mayor Philip Castillo bilang mayoralty bet sa Lucena.
Sa Batangas City ay hayag nang sinasanay ni Mayor Eddie Dimacuha ang kanyang maybahay na si ABC President Vilma A. Dimacuha sa tungkulin ng isang city executive bilang paghahanda sa pagtatapos ng kanyang termino. Medyo mahihirapan ang makakatunggali ni Mam Vilma Dimacuha sapagkat batid naman ng lahat kung gaano kamahal ng mga taga-Batangas City si Mayor Eddie.
May mga gumigire naman na ang puntirya ay ang posisyon nina San Pablo City Mayor Vicente B. Amante, Calamba City Mayor Jun Chipeco, Sta. Rosa City Mayor Arlene Nazareno, Tanauan City Mayor Sonia Aquino, Lipa City Mayor Oca Goza, Dasmariñas Mayor Jonny Bargaza, Laguna’s 3rd Dist. Rep. Ivy Arago, 4th Dist. Cong. Egay San Luis, Cong. Procy Alcala ng Quezon at marami pang iba.
Well good luck na lamang sa mga challenger sapagkat ang performance ng mga incumbent officials na ito ang mahigpit ninyong kalaban.(SANDY BELARMINO)
