JPENHS Website Committee Organized

Jacinto P. Elpa National High School Website Committee has been organized by the school in coordination with Class 87 as the project proponent. Class 87, headed by its Class President, Engr. Ramil A. Sanchez, presided over the joint meeting and planning on March 16, 2012 at the LRC Computer Laboratory.

Six school teachers, namely: Mr. Julieto S. Galleon, Mr. Marieto V. Lozada, Ms. Fe E. Lagumbay, Ms. Felicisima Lorono, Mr. Azarias L. Moral and Ms. Alberta M. Bela-ong,  and five students - Alexa Louise C. Layson, Marianne S. Aya-ay, Jiemar M, Bela-ong, Jezreel Amore Yparaguirre and Humphry Deleña also attended the meeting.

Engr. Sanchez discussed the importance  of having a school website. Class 87, 2012 Silver Jubilarians, with its advocacy for technological literacy,  proposed the website project so that school will be truly global and in order to utilize the advances in information and communications technology (ICT) for academic progress and development. Through the website, JPENHS can reach out to its alumni, especially those  who are now working and/or living outside the country. The website shall serve as center of information about the school, its programs and activities, and the achievements of its students and teachers. It will also serve as communication channel for the parents, the other stakeholders and the community in general.

In order to manage the project for sustainability, the Website Committee was organized.
