1. Attending Mass with Respect: The Holy Mass is a sacred practice in the Catholic faith. As a
student at a Catholic school like St. Scholastica's Academy - Tabunok, it is important to
treat the Mass with the proper respect it deserves. This means not attending the Mass
solely for attendance but to understand the gospel of the Lord. Additionally, this respect
involves responding appropriately to the priest, listening attentively to the homily,
avoiding loud conversations with others, and honoring the sanctity of the Mass.
2. Courtesy and Respect for Elders: Since joining this institution, my classmates and I have
been taught to show respect to those older than us, including the Benedictine sisters,
teachers, administrators, and staff. We were taught to greet them with phrases like "Good
morning/afternoon/evening, Benedicite!" These simple greetings have been ingrained in
me, as well as in other Scholasticans.
4. Practicing Lectio Divina: As a Lectio Divina reader, I strive to understand the gospel
deeply; this is essential because I act as a vessel for God's wisdom. It is not enough to
simply read the text; I must also feel and comprehend its message. By doing so, students
who listen to me will also grasp the gospel's meaning. Lectio Divina is divided into four
sections: reading, meditating, praying, and acting. As a reader, I endeavor to practice these
steps to the best of my ability.

5. Participating in the Social Involvement Program: The Social Involvement Program (SIP)
is an annual activity organized by the school to extend outreach efforts for social and
environmental causes. As a Scholastican, I strive to approach this program with gratitude,
empathy, and kindness toward every encounter. SIP enables students to engage with
and connect to communities beyond the school's walls. Therefore, as a student, I aim to
remain open-minded and receptive to diverse experiences. By doing so, I fulfill God's
commandment to love and help my neighbors, whether they are people or the
environment.
