Cebu City, June 1, 2026 — The Basic Education Department (BED) of the University of San Jose–Recoletos officially commenced its In-Service Training (INSET) 2026 with a Holy Mass celebrated earlier today at the University of San Jose–Recoletos Basak Auditorium.

The Eucharistic celebration was presided over by Rev. Fr. Jorge D. Peligro, OAR, who delivered an inspiring homily emphasizing the value of time and the essential qualities that every Josenian should embody: a sense of self, a sense of others, a sense of purpose, urgency, and sacrifice.

Drawing from the theme of personal and professional growth, Fr. Peligro encouraged the educators to remain grounded in their mission as teachers. He shared a meaningful reflection: “A tree that wants to reach the sky has to grow its roots deep down below.” The message underscored the importance of strong values, humility, and commitment as foundations for achieving excellence.

As the department embarks on this year’s training, educators are encouraged to embrace lifelong learning and continue nurturing the minds and hearts of their students in the true spirit of being Josenian educators.

JHS PRIDE | Swimming Jaguar Sweeps Medals in NILCSC

CEBU CITY — Louis Miguel Sarabosing, a Junior High School student from the University of San Jose–Recoletos, delivered a remarkable performance as he completed a triple victory in the National Interschool Long Course Swimming Championship (NILCSC) held at the Cebu City Sports Center on April 25, 2026.

Sarabosing clinched a gold medal in the 200-meter Individual Medley, along with two silver medals in the 100-meter Backstroke and 100-meter Breaststroke events, showcasing both versatility and endurance in the pool.

A proud member of the JHS Swimming Jaguars Club under the guidance of Mr. Michael Novero, Sarabosing continues to build an impressive record. He previously bagged awards in the IBST Novice and Developmental Swim Cup 2025 and the 2nd Cebu Race Pace Single Age Band Swimming Competition.

His recent achievement highlights the growing excellence of Josenians in the field of sports and reinforces the school’s commitment to developing competitive athletes.

USJ-R BASAK | The University of San Jose-Recoletos Basak Campus will host Project PEPA: Patuloy na Edukasyon, Patuloy na Pag-ahon on April 30, 2026.

In line with this, onsite services at the campus will temporarily shift to online delivery. The onsite services will resume on May 2, 2026.

Project PEPA is an education caravan for Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries, jointly implemented by CHED, DepEd, and TESDA. It aims to bridge the education access gap by bringing information on government-funded scholarships, subsidies, and learning opportunities directly to low-income families.

Conducted nationwide from February to May 2026, the caravan guides students and parents on available education pathways, application processes, and eligibility requirements. The initiative ensures that marginalized sectors receive timely and accurate information to help them make informed educational choices.
