Hello batch 2019!
We would like to wish you good luck for your UPCAT!
Thank you for all the memories, no matter how small, you shared with us.
Thank you for your patience whenever we would be too immature for you.
Even if you'll all be in college in the next few years, please, please visit us, for all of us and all of the other batches will miss you.

Whenever a batch in UPIS leaves for college, there will always be another empty hole for us to fill. But with that empty hole comes our pride for all of your accomplishments and memories.

College will most definitely bring hardships, but you all have to remember that all the problems you will encounter will just be new challenges in your life. Whatever university you enter, you will always meet new people- people who will stay in your life forever, and people who will only be temporary. No matter who they are, always be sure to learn a new lesson from each one you meet. Don't ever take anybody or anything for granted. Everything has a reason- may it be a low grade or a fight with a friend. It's all a challenge you have to overcome and an adventure you have to make. Make the best of all your memories, and learn from your mistakes. When the world becomes too much, remember that there will always be someone to hold on to, to cry on, and to love and support you through it all.

You are not alone.

Goodluck on your UPCAT and on the new chapter you are starting in your lives.

Sincerely, batch 2024

News: Batches 2019 and 2020 glimmer in Lumine 2017


A luminous night indeed.

Juniors and Seniors from Batches 2019 and 2020 illuminated the Celebrity Sports Plaza, Quezon City in Lumine, their Junior-Senior Promenade, last February 18.

This year's prom featured a program inspired by the details in renowned Harry Potter series by author J.K. Rowling. The Triwizard Tournament was a new activity for this year’s prom where representatives from both batches competed to be the first to answer a question correctly. The winner’s table got to be the first to eat.

Another first in Lumine is “The Chosen Ones” title awarded to Batch 2020’s Megarth Morillo and Sophia Loriega. The title was accorded to the pair who picked the papers with the words “The Chosen Ones” written on them.

Michael Tee Jr. and Samantha Faye Salazar were crowned as this year’s Prom King and Queen while Bryant Galicia and Ellene Arceo were hailed as Prom Prince and Princess.

The traditional turnover ceremony was also held wherein the seniors passed on their responsibilities to the juniors. The key that represents the responsibilities was handed over to Erika Sasazawa, the President of Juniors Association by Fred Samonte, Senior Council’s president; the torch of light from Chesca Joves to Mae Rodgers and the banner of Excellence from Patience Ventura to Rizza Cabrera.

Pairs from both batches were chosen to dance the cotillion. Bands Amamimamols, FLL, Smilky, and Silakbo together with other artists performed in the event as well. //Bryan Lina, Rebeca Sinchongco

It's going to be one magical night.

Elevate is an annual event organized by DZUP Radio Circle, one of the student organization in the UP College of Mass Communication. The event aims to promote responsible journalism among high school students and future practitioners of the field. Around 500 students from various schools nationwide joined this year’s workshop and competition.

UPIS was represented by 21 Grade 10 students from the Social Sciences and Humanities track. They were assigned to different parts of the competition such as editorial writing, radio broadcasting, layouting, and photojournalism.

“Marami akong natutunan….very educational, but at the same time very fun kasi parang pwede mong matutunan kung ano yung skills mo na magagamit mo din sa real life,” Gatchalian said of the event.

Aside from Gatchalian, Josh Santos’ group also won first place in the radio broadcasting event wherein groups of students from different schools were tasked to create a 5-minute radio program.

First rolled out last year, I Can Fly is a program for high school students to encourage their interest in aviation and social services through introduction of the basics in the airline industry. From last year’s 15 participants, the pool has been doubled this year due to the success of the program’s first installment which included students from UPIS Batch 2018.

Similar to last year’s program, participants were introduced to the different departments, teams and staff of CX at the Cathay Pacific Ltd. Main Office, NAIA Terminal, and NAIA Complex. They also helped in the “Life Well Travelled” campaign by creating slogans for three different travelers and conducted the company’s CSR program at an orphanage by organizing a puppet show for the children.

On July 29, the participants graduated from the program at the Makati Sports Club, where they received their awards and performed an original song they composed. CX also announced that the top three participants, Aparato, Samonte and ERDA Tech’s Jskie Laguinday, will be visiting Cathay Pacific’s Hong Kong office in October or November. // by Trisa De Ocampo

UPIS Juniors and Seniors travel back to the roaring twenties in Mirage 2016

It was a soiree of opulence and luxor.

Batches 2018 (2x9) and 2019 (19nite) illuminated The Grand Terrace, Quezon City in their Junior-Senior Promenade, dubbed Mirage, last February 27, 2016.

This year’s prom features The Great Gatsby, a 1920s inspired masquerade. The batches’ subject teachers and school administration personnel, including principal Dr. Ronaldo M. San Jose also graced the event.

The seniors passed on their responsibilities to the juniors during the turnover ceremony. The key of responsibility was handed over by Franz Candido, the Senior Council president, to Ron Castro, the Junior Association president; the torch of light from Drew Magbag to Chesca Joves; and the banner of excellence from Marianne Sasing to Patience Ventura.

Chosen pairs from each batch presented in the cotillion. Bands and other artists from both batches also performed for the event.

ILLUSION. It's no joke to complete a 10-minute routine and execute it in tuxedos, gowns, and masks, but these Grade 9 and Grade 10 dancers certainly made it look effortless for this year's prom cotillion. CARLOS LADERAS
Alexandra Arugay and Craig Aquino were awarded as Best Masks for Grade 9 and Gelleen Esposo and Brian Gabriel for Grade 10.

SoA 2019 hosts Acque: Around the World

The annual Acquaintance Party (Acque) for Grade 7 and 8 students was held at the UPIS 3-6 Bulwagan last Monday, September 22, 2014. Batches 2019 and 2020 celebrated the event with this year’s chosen theme: “Around The World”.

Photo credit: Nicole Desierto
One of the main highlights of the event was a group game. The goal of the game was to finish assigned tasks in 6 stations that resemble various parts of the world such as Africa, Mexico, Japan, Antarctica, Hawaii, and France.

There were also special performances from select students, a social dance segment, and a raffle.

The Acque is an annual event was facilitated by the Sophomore Association to welcome the freshmen and to establish camaraderie between the two batches.

According to Ron Castro, president of the Sophomore Association, the whole planning experience was hard and really required a lot from them, but in the end it was all worth-it.

It was originally scheduled on September 15 but was postponed when classes were suspended due to Typhoon Luis. / by Jesica Caneca with reports from Travis Argayosa and Jediael Neri
