  • Tom, Allow me to say my piece. "Tagudin" public school system has failed to provide our future doctors, presidents, geniuses a place for a conducive environment for learning. These, I believed is the root cause why we have the "needy" that is less "deserving" for any assistance in there pusuit for higher education. May I recommend solving the root cause by providing them with the necessary tools to overcome the obstacles. This, in my humble opinion will help the needy(majority) to become more deserving(minority) student. Thank you. (NT) -- Ron Lata Cablay , TPHS 1958-59, 01/11/05 11:38am

  • Thank you Ron kabsat. Indeed, young men and women have passed through those High School gates not getting the decent education they so deserve. Since the government puts education at such a low priority, the infrastructure needed to deliver education suffers. Ultimately, it is the student that suffers mental malnutrition. So, what can we as responsible Tagudinians do for our children? We can build bigger and better classrooms. We can get more computer gear so that our kids can stay abreast of technology. But, even if we build bigger, better-equipped classrooms if the government does not hire more teachers - we are back to ground zero. So why not a scholarship fund that will allow the student to compete for the opportunity to attend a better-equipped school? I believe that all of us Tagudinians abroad could do much to give our children back home a fighting chance. Although I know that we are not obligated to do anything, who else will do it - for our very own - if not us Tagudinians? (NT) -- Deacon Tom Buenavista of Farola SAS Class 1957-58, 01/12/05 6:46am
