alumni,
According to Dr. Ronaldo San Jose, the school principal, Araos proposed his plans and designs to the UPIS administration before the transfer to the new building was completed. The administration deliberated and eventually approved the proposal. Former UP Diliman Chancellor Cesar Saloma gave the go signal on December 2013.
Aside from the Quad, Araos also designed the garden areas at UPIS, all of which are sponsored by different alumni batches. The idea to turn the areas into gardens was one of the proposed solutions to the problem of having loose soil on those areas. Whenever strong winds blow, the soil particles are scattered all over the place, even inside the ground floor classrooms.
The landscaping of the Quad is also in preparation for Batch 1991's Alumni Homecoming in 2016, he year of the UP High Centennial.
The different garden areas are divided into pockets which cost Php 50,000 each. Since the refurbishing of the Quad in particular is not sponsored by anyone, it will be accomplished in exchange for the scrap materials from the old demolished building. / by Jesica Cañeca
