O, Philippine Science High
Liwanag moy tanglaw
Sa amin ay gabay
Sa landas ng buhay
Sa dakilang minimithi
XI THE RIGHT TO DIALOGUE
A. Complaints Against Teachers/School Personnel
Lyrics: Tanglaw Roman
(PSHS ’99)
G. THE SCHOLAR’S PLEDGE
The student is encouraged to approach his teachers or homeroom adviser
to discuss problems that he may have. Differences and conflicts should be
settled privately and informally among the concerned parties without the
intervention of higher authorities. However, if such a procedure does not
yield satisfactory results, the scholar may seek redress through the following
processes:
I Am A Philippine Science High School Scholar
1. The Scholar may address a formal written complaint against the teacher/
school personnel to the immediate supervisor.
Committed to the pursuit of excellence,
Foremost in my academic life and later,
in my service to the Filipino people to
whom I owe the gift of my education and
to whose upliftment I must dedicate my
God-given talents and acquired
expertise in science and technology.
2. The immediate supervisor notifies the teacher/ school personnel that
a formal complaint has been filed against him and allows the latter
to make a formal written reply within five (5)days from receipt of the
complaint.
3. Upon receipt of the reply of the teacher/ school personnel concerned,
the immediate supervisor arranges for a meeting with the scholar and
the teacher/ school personnel. After having heard both parties, the
immediate supervisor will resolve the case.
I envision myself as creative, inventive,
and innovative, taking the lead in
initiating positive changes that will enrich
my school, my community, and
Philippine society.
4. If the teacher/school personnel does not reply, the immediate supervisor
shall nonetheless render a decision.
5. Appeals may be elevated to the Director and finally to the Board of
Trustees
As a scholar, I embody the scientific spirit–
inquisitive, logical, analytical and critical–
but also equally imbued with the
humanist values of justice and compassion,
prudence, integrity, and humility.
B. Request for Dialogue with Teacher/ School Personnel
I am committed to the perpetuation of
the human race and the preservation of
the universe that is its home;
Classes/ Student groups wishing to dialogue with a particular teacher/
school personnel should address a formal written request signed by the majority
of the class or group (50% + 1) to the immediate supervisor. He may
arrange for a dialogue if he decides that is necessary.
If a dialogue cannot be arranged, the scholars may submit a formal written
complaint (with the same number of signatories) against the teacher/
school personnel. The procedure described in Section A is then allowed.
I finally envision myself as actively
professing and operationalizing love of God,
country, others, and self in all my goals,
activities and achievements.
