New school year, new opportunities to grow! As classes officially begin, our school community is grounding this year in a commitment to excellence, faith, and partnership.

We are reminded of the promise in 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗯𝘀 𝟭𝟲:𝟯: “𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗛𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘀.”

May this be a year where our entire community—teachers, students, families, and partners—is encouraged, supported, and inspired.

Here’s to a blessed, productive, and impactful school year! 💙💛

The 2026 General Parents’ Orientation was a resounding success! As we stand on the threshold of a new academic year, we have officially concluded our week-long orientation activities for our learners. To cap off this preparation, today, June 12, 2026, we successfully conducted our three-part General Parents’ Orientation.

We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to all the parents and guardians who joined us in today's sessions:

Today’s discussions were vital in ensuring we are all aligned for the upcoming school year. We revisited school policies and discussed revised guidelines, the three-term school calendar, the new classroom assessment and grading system, and updated awards and recognition. Additionally, we tackled the updated Education Service Contracting (ESC) guidelines for our incoming Grade 7 students. All updates and revisions are in strict compliance with the latest DepEd Orders and Guidelines.

We also express our appreciation to our dedicated PTA Officers, who transparently presented their financial statements and impactful projects for SY 2025–2026, alongside their initial projects for SY 2026–2027.

Today, we commemorate Philippine Independence Day. Also, today is a reminder of the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering love for country that secured the freedom we enjoy today.

As student journalists here in TYCS, the values we uphold echo the spirit of independence. Freedom comes with responsibility to seek the truth, verify facts, think critically, and give voice to stories that matter.

Through ethical and responsible campus journalism, we learn that freedom of expression is most meaningful when guided by integrity, accountability, and service to the community.

May this day inspire us to become informed citizens who value truth, uphold democratic ideals, and contribute positively to our nation.

Happy Philippine Independence Day, Southhillians!

We are overflowing with gratitude as we welcome another amazing project from our supportive Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) officers, led by its President Mrs. Romalie Baduria.

Acting swiftly on the recommendations from our recent ESC Recertification Activity, our PTA has successfully provided five (5) sets of color-coded trash bins for proper waste disposal.

To ensure these bins last for years to come, they even added sturdy, custom-built metal frames for proper storage and maintenance.

This incredible initiative brings us one step closer to our mission of providing a clean, safe, and highly conducive learning environment for all our students.

This project is just the latest in a beautiful string of continuous support from our PTA. Last school year, their project included the following:

🪑𝟭𝟮𝟬 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗰 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿𝘀: Generously provided during our 16th Foundation and recent closing ceremonies.

📊𝟮𝟰 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀: Realized our dream of installing 2 whiteboards in every classroom last October.

SMSI extends its deepest gratitude our hardworking PTA officers, and our supportive parents. Your unwavering commitment to our school community makes all the difference!

Together, we are building a better environment for our learners. 💙💛
