A Filipino student from a Catholic school in Oriental Mindoro has brought pride to the Philippines after winning the highest honor in a prestigious international science competition held in the United States.
“If not for teachers’ sacrifices, commitment, talents.. their virtues .. despite their own personal concerns .. thank you for choosing the children and their future … for filling in the roles they need as they present many challenges,” said Rev. Fr. Richard S. Rodriguez, in a four-minute video tribute for teachers.
Holy Infant Academy (HIA), a Catholic school in an island region of the Philippines, won gold in the International - World Innovative Student Expo (iWISE) at Surrey University, Guilford, Surrey, England, from August 14 to 21.
