VILLASIS - The Don Ramon E. Costales Memorial National High School (DRECMNHS) here will be the tenth secondary schools in Pangasinan II Schools Division to have special science class pursuant to DepEd Order No. 55, S-2010 issued by the Bureau of Secondary Education.

A total of 70 freshmen took their qualifying examination last June 13 administered by the Schools Division, supervised by the Cecilia A. Bautista, education supervisor for English. The examination covered subject areas in Science, English and Mathematics.

“The science class will only have 40 students which will focus on science and technology. The students will be immersed on practical and research aspects of science and technology which is the focus of the national government,” Bautista said.

The students who will belong to the class must have an average grade of 85% and a retainer grade of 80% in all subject areas.

School head Rowena G. Moreno said that the inclusion of the school for the special science class is a welcome development because qualifying for such took a tedious process. The school facilities and the capabilities of the teachers have been evaluated by the DepEd’s Regional Office.

“We are happy to have been included among the five national high schools that will have special science classes this school year. This proves that our school has already met the standards imposed by the Department of Education (DepEd). This a feat not only for the school administration but parents and students, as well,” Moreno said.

The top ten students who passed the admission tests to the special science class are: Danica Quebral, Mark Louise Ancheta, Monique Bustamante, Trisha Mae Marpuri, John Reynaldo Macanas, Gerald Salazar, Armeie Madriaga, Jenica Rubino, Marlon Madronio and Hadassah Leia Ingles.

Others who passed to complete the 40 students are: Jessica Pascua, Rubemar Ordonio, Hannah Cares Casuncad, Angeli June Battad, Jumel Carl Novencido, Micah Ellaine Mones, Shaina Jenica Ballera, Jerica Mae Vetonio, King Jamil Orpiano, Norris Mortera, Jonalie Jan Lopez, Christine Joy Sibayan, Eleanor delos Reyes, Danielle Macabitas, Sherry Mae Mejia, Mark Razil Nagtalon, Filam Joe Sepnio, Christian Bayya, Jan Clarisse Bautista, Edwin Bascos, Merielle Faith Barba, Manantan John Carlo, Levi John Basconcillo, Jilliane Pagulayan, Kate Caballero, Carlo Taroma, Dessylyn Magpale, Ellen Nicole Gundran, Juvilee Ordonez and Mikah Serra.

Meanwhile, the school is also undergoing supplemental feeding among its 150 freshmen students to maintain their body mass index (BMI).
School nurse Cherry Masilang said that the number of malnourished students is not alarming.

“We have to maintain the 14.5-23.7 kg. weight of the 12 years old students. By providing them with supplementation in their food intake, they will be healthier and they could grasp their lessons easily,” Masilang said.

The supplemental feeding is undertaken by the school canteen personnel. The prepared food supplementation is financed out of the income of school canteen operations.
