On January 22 (Monday), at 9:30 AM in the school’s third-floor auditorium, a seminar on career internships and college guidance for graduating high school seniors was held. The event was co-hosted by Dr. Teresita Eusebio, the head of the high school department, and Sharon Ricarte, the co-director of guidance. The activities of the day were divided into two parts.
The first part featured a presentation by Ms. Jinky Gamit from Trinity University of Asia, providing information and rules about internships at the university for the second-year high school students. This year, the school signed a memorandum of understanding with Trinity University of Asia, including the acceptance of high school students for internships. The high school interns from Morning Light School will complete 80 hours of internship at Trinity University of Asia. Each student will be assigned a supervisor to ensure their safety and a beneficial learning experience. The school is confident that the students will gain valuable insights during their internship, contributing to their future endeavors in university or the workforce.
In the second part, the guidance director presented on “What’s Next after High School?” Ms. Ricarte analyzed the students’ learning interests and explained which college majors would be suitable for them to avoid making the wrong choice and facing challenges such as changing majors or dropping out midway. Following the presentation, students had the opportunity to ask questions, and the guidance director addressed each query. It is believed that after this seminar, the high school students have a clearer understanding of which college major suits them best, ensuring a smoother journey through their university years.
In conclusion, the head of the high school department emphasized the school’s commitment to students’ futures. The school hopes that students will achieve success in their careers and contribute to society. Students were encouraged to reflect on their choices and seek assistance from the school whenever needed. The school is always open to supporting its students.
