Mateo, SPTA President was also present to represent the parents and the Department Heads and Subject Group Heads to show their support. Mrs. Emilia L. Tolentino, PCSHS principal VI gave her heartwarming remarks to officially open the program.

The audio visual presentation of the partnership journey reminisced the five years’ accomplishments of the strong collaboration between PCSHS, TFP and PBSP. The ceremonial turn over and the awarding of plaques of appreciation to the partners were very significant in recognizing the intense support extended to the school. The Pledge of Commitment was delivered by Jean Christlyn P. Asuncion (student) and Ms. May Ann D. Romano (teacher) which focused on the sustainability and full maximization of the digital hub. The ceremony was simultaneously held with the Digital Hub Tour and workshop activity on Digital Citizenship with the Digital Learning Scholars from Grade 12 STEM, selected Grade 11 STEM, and grade 10 students facilitated by Mr. Franz Raña and TFP Volunteers.
