The CLSU Laboratory for Teaching and Learning – University Science High School (CLTL-USHS) honored its students during the 48th Annual Recognition and Promotion, 10th Completion Ceremonies, and 8th Senior High School Graduation Rites held at the University Auditorium on April 30, 2026. With the theme “Pilipinong Nagsi pag tapos: Handang Mamuno nang May Kakayahan at Mabuting Pagkatao,” the institution recognized 57 Junior High School completers and 61 Senior High School graduates. Mr. Aurelius Maximus R. Esguerra, class valedictorian and recipient of High Honors for his batch, led the graduating class, which produced 17 students with High Honors and 33 with Honors. Ms. Erich Lyann V. Salvador, the lone recipient of Highest Honors and recorded the highest general average among the completers, led her class with 12 students receiving High Honors and 39 garnering Honors. In his valedictory address, Mr. Esguerra emphasized the value of making principled choices, stating, “Sa pagtatapos ng aking talumpati, nais kong iwan sa inyo ang isang paanyayang magpatuloy sa pagpili ng tama. Sapagkat sa bawat tamang desisyon, doon nagsisimula ang tunay na pagbabago. Hindi natin kontrolado ang lahat ng mangyayari sa hinaharap—ngunit hawak natin kung paano tayo pipili araw-araw.” Meanwhile, Ms. Salvador reflected on embracing the future with courage and integrity, sharing, “Hindi natin hawak ang lahat ng mangyayari sa susunod na kabanata, pero hawak natin kung paano tayo haharap dito—may tapang, may dangal, at may tiwala sa sariling kakayahan. Nawa’y manatili sa atin ang kasiyahan sa pagharap sa buhay at ang mabuting pagkataong hinubog sa mga taong lumipas, upang sa simpleng paraan ng pagpasya at pagkilos sa araw-araw, matuto tayong magdala ng mabuting impluwensiya sa iba.” Dr. Rachelle S. Coloma-Daus, an alumna of CLTL-USHS Batch 1993 and its valedictorian, served as the Guest of Honor and Speaker. In her message, she shared how the lessons and experiences she gained during her time at USHS prepared her for the challenges ahead. Drawing from her journey as a medical doctor, she highlighted the lasting value of strong academic foundations and encouraged graduates to remain committed to excellence and purpose. Dr. Evaristo A.

CLSU Launches ‘Sidlan’ Community Pantry to Support Students

Embodying the Filipino spirit of bayanihan, the Laban sa Ipinagbabawal na Gamot, Tulay na Agapay sa Sielesyuans at Sambayanan (LIGTAS-CLSU), a non-college-based student organization, in partnership with the Office of Student Affairs (OSA) headed by Dean Irene Bustos, officially launched its community pantry today, August 26 at the OSA tambayan. Dubbed “Sidlan: Ang Pantry ng Sielesyuans,” the event was first conceptualized two years ago through the collective contributions and support of the university community. Guided by the principle “Kumuha ayon sa pangangailangan, magbigay ayon sa kakayahan,” the pantry will operate daily from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM for all CLSU students. During the opening ceremony, LIGTAS-CLSU President Jovan Clay Evangelista emphasized the project's community-driven mission. "Ito ang Sidlan, ang pantry ng Sielesyuan, isang proyekto mula sa komunidad, para sa komunidad,” Mr. Evangelista said. University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella commended the organizers for initiating a program aimed at directly assisting fellow students. "Alam naman natin na hindi pantay-pantay ang kakayahan ng bawat estudyante dito sa ating campus, kaya from time to time ay maglalagay din tayo dito upang matulungan ang ibang estudyante,” Pres. Abella stated, assuring continued institutional and personal support for the project. To embody the spirit of the community pantry, Dr. Abella brought with him essential groceries and sacks of rice to share with the community. The organization continues to welcome donations of food and essential goods from the CLSU Community and the public, while encouraging all Sielesyuans, especially those facing financial hardship, to take what they need from the pantry. #SievingForExcellence

Former Student Regent Viterbo is Among the Region’s Top Outstanding Students, Completes DAP’s BAGANI Program

Ms. Aljone V. Viterbo, former Student Regent of Central Luzon State University (CLSU), has been recognized as a top finalist in the Ten Outstanding Students of the Philippines (TOSP) program for Central Luzon, affirming her commitment to academic excellence and passion for public service. Prior to this, she also completed the pioneering program of the Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP) for the youth dubbed as BAGANI: Rising Leaders Development Program. Ms. Viterbo, who graduated magna cum laude, served as the Chairperson of the University Supreme Student Council (USSC) and as Student Regent for academic year 2025-2026. Her TOSP selection reflects both her academic performance and her eight-year record of sustained involvement in community outreach and volunteer initiatives. “Hindi ko po ito itinuturing na aking tagumpay lamang. Tulad ng lagi kong sinasabi, hindi ko magagawa ang lahat ng ito kung hindi dahil sa mga taong aking pinaglilingkuran at nakasama sa paglilingkod, pag-aaral, at pagkatuto,” Ms. Viterbo shared. Highlighting her deep commitment to public service and community development, she shared, “Ang lahat ng ito ay upang patuloy akong makapagbigay ng serbisyo para sa ikabubuti ng ating komunidad.” The regional selection process was organized by the TOSP Region 3 Alumni Community of Heroes (TOSP-R3ACH). The program provides a platform for student leaders across the region to strengthen leadership capabilities, reinforce core values, and advance social development initiatives. Meanwhile, before receiving the TOSP accolade, Ms. Viterbo completed the BAGANI Program of the DAP, which aims to equip emerging leaders with the knowledge and skills needed to develop and implement sustainable community-based initiatives. Held from June 13 to July 11, 2026, the program selected only 56 fellows from more than 2,000 applicants nationwide, making Ms. Viterbo one of the distinguished BAGANI fellows who successfully underwent the highly competitive selection process. After completing the BAGANI Program, Ms. Viterbo shared a profound realization about the value of public service, saying, “Serving the people is a privilege. The Philippines and the Filipino people are worth fighting for. Kahit magulo at basag ang bansa natin ngayon, may pag-asa pa rin, at puwede iyong magsimula sa atin.” With this, the University extends its congratulations to Ms. Viterbo on this achievement and her continued success. May your efforts continue to inspire the student body and future leaders of our country.
