Iriga City Private Schools Assn Script

“The essence of education is not to stuff you with facts, but to help you discover your uniqueness, to teach you how to develop it, and then to show you how to give it away”

-Leo Buscaglia

This day can only be marked as a milestone in the history of education in this part of the world… one of the first vital phases in the realization of a long-standing dream, which is actually based on man’s instinctive need for belongingness and quest for harmony. Today is the FIRST LEARNING SESSION FOR ADMINISTRATORS AND TEACHERS , conceived by the vigorous forerunners who comprise the Iriga City Association of Private Schools Administrators and Owners (ICAPSAO)

Aren’t we just lucky?

And so, let us lift up this momentous day to the Him who makes everything possible. Let’s all rise for an invocation to be led by the USANT Glee club, after which , let us remain standing to pay homage to our country by singing the Philippine National Anthem.
