Feature: Monsters University

Are you looking for a light but memorable movie? Well, Monsters University is the right one for you.

This movie is not just for kids. It might be animated but the whole family, even teenagers, can also watch and appreciate it.

It’s packed with fun but is also filled with life lessons and issues which viewers of all ages can easily relate to.

The movie is like a guide to surviving school. It shows techniques on how to excel or do well in academics. It also teaches them how to socialize with other students and adjust to different personalities. Be prepared, too, to feel the joys of being a student and the desperation brought about by failure and rejection.

Monsters University can be inspiring and motivating for teens. It is truly enjoyable and definitely a must-watch. / by Melanie Bravo and Knika Cornejo

K-2 launches new programs

The Waste Management Program and the Disciplinary Program proposed by the K-2 faculty members are now being implemented at the K-2 building.

The Waste Management Program’s goal is to help the environment by reducing trash. As part of the program, the faculty members decided to set certain bins for each kind of trash for easy assortment. This includes cans for white and colored paper, carton, plastic, and food waste.

Another purpose of the said program is to help and appreciate the custodians. The biodegradable wastes would be sold to trash collectors and the money accumulated will be given to the school workers.

On the other hand, the Disciplinary Program aims to teach students proper conduct, even at their very young age. The K-2 teachers want to show that UPIS students are not only smart but also disciplined and responsible.

For example, footstep marks painted on the floor guide students to keep right, and posters on the walls remind students to behave properly.

The UPIS K-2 faculty will be watching and guiding the students and they will be hoping these programs will not only apply in school, but also in every aspect of life. / by Melanie Bravo and Knika Cornejo
