Greetings!
I hope this letter finds everyone well and that everyone has settled
and adjusted to school year 2014-2015. Firstly, allow me to introduce myself. I
am Irene Carpo, mother of Laura Carpo from Gr. 10 section St. Segovia, and I
will be your level representative for this school year.
My purpose for writing this, apart from welcoming everyone to the
new school year, is to discuss the details of the meeting held today, July 21st
2014, with Teacher Annie Sanchez (HS Principal), Miss Lota Dilagan (assistant
principal for HS), Miss Rich Steigerwald (teacher head of the yearbook
committee) and Mrs. Karen Sunico (PPA
Secretary), regarding the yearbook preparations.
As per Department of Education standards, a Junior High School
graduation ceremony is required. The date that Poveda has set for the ceremony
is on the morning of March 25th, 2015. It has also been decided that
Grade 10 will have their own designated yearbook committee. Below are some key
points that were discussed at today’s meeting:
· The theme chosen by the Seniors for
this school year’s yearbook is “free spirited”.
· Their English
teachers will recommend two girls from each class who will be responsible for
reminding the class as well as collecting the write-ups.
· Each section’s
homeroom teacher will be responsible for proofreading and approving all
write-ups.
· The deadline
for write-up submissions has not been decided yet, but is proposed to be sometime
around August, class advisers will inform students of the exact date once it
has been established.
· The tentative
schedule for graduation photo shoot is in September and proof shoots will be
distributed soon after. Once again, please wait for further announcements for
the exact date.
· For the
yearbook, Junior High School students will be given half a page each for their
picture and write up, and one whole page to be designed per section where they
can compile pictures.
· The estimated
yearbook fee is P1,650.00 for the standard package which includes 3pcs 5x7 and
1pc 8x10 photos.
· The Graduation
Fee of P1,200.00 more or less will be
collected separately since the announcement from DepEd came after the
enrollment period.
Your comments and suggestions are
also very much welcome. I look forward to working hand in hand with each and
every one of you to ensure a successful school year for our girls.
Thank you very much in advance
for your cooperation.
Very sincerely yours,
Irene Carpo
