“Once a PaScian, always a PaScian.” The 2025 Year-End Party was not just a party; It is, after all, a “renewal of the school’s founding mission to create a supportive community as they continue to pursue their dreams” intertwining the future of the brightest young minds of the nation.

 

In celebration of this milestone, the faculty and staff members of the Pasay City National Science High School (PCNSciHS) observed the Year-End Party on December 19, 2025, at the Double Dragon Plaza Center West, 3rd floor from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM.

 

The occasion highlighted the school’s devoted teachers and staff in line with the theme, “Denim and Sparkles: Weaving the Future, One Sparkle at a Time.” Indeed, the theme summed up the “PaScian” spirit perfectly, symbolizing toughness (denim) and the gleam of knowledge (sparkles).

 

Celebrating Faith and Unity

 

The program started with the preliminaries conducted in a solemn mood and a series of them including an opening prayer, a patriotic song, and the Pasay Hymn.

 

Following the preliminaries, Mrs. Sara Jane T. de los Santos, Assistant Principal II, injected a vibe of warmth and gratitude to the gathering of the staff and faculty members of PCNSciHS for their collective hard work throughout the year.

 

In addition to these welcoming remarks, Dr. Mark Anthony F. Familaran, school principal, praised the faculty for their dedication and hard work in the service of the PaScian community.

 

Furthermore, a special Christmas message was delivered by Pastor Nixon Ng of Victory Christian Church, focusing on the spiritual significance of the season.

 

Moving beyond formal speeches, the day continued with a display of rhythm, the PCNSciHS family shared their dancing abilities by performing the tiktok dance craze “Opalite” by Taylor Swift during the checking of attendance; consequently, showing that their talents are not limited only to the laboratory and the classroom.

 

Soon after, the “Games” portion of the event—- including “Trip to Jerusalem with a Twist”, Game Ka Na Ba? filled the room with laughter. This excitement eventually led to one of the most awaited moments of the day: the Best in Costume Announcement. The participants shone bright like the best denim, and, sparkle stars, vying for the crown with ingenious flair. The top 5 Best in Costume was announced by Ms. Sara de los Santos. They were: Ms. Estilong, Mr. Ganelo, Ms. Medina, Ms. Hachazo and Mr. Pacris.

 

Sharing the Joy

 

As the evening progressed, the Exchange Gift and the traditional Dinner were the main events where the giving spirit was highly emphasized. Everyone who could be seen in high spirits, were able to fully enjoy a festive meal together.

 

To celebrate their common successes in a very sweet way, a “Cake of Gratitude” ceremony was introduced and it was different from any other usual ceremonies. Each department was given the opportunity to express what they are thankful for in the year 2025.

 

Finally, the event was wrapped up with the words of thanks and appreciation from Mrs. Jackyline T. Lagana, PCNSciHS FEA President and Head Teacher III. She expressed her gratitude to everyone for their participation and encouragement which were instrumental to the success of the FEA programs and projects.

 

The entire program was seamlessly guided by the expertise of Mr. Gil C. Ganelo, who served as the Master of Ceremony.
