It’s 7 days before Christmas
What brings the most joy this ๐๐ฑ๐ป๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ช๐ผ season is the profound sense of ๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ข๐ข that binds us as a community. ๐๐ฑ๐ป๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ช๐ผ is not merely about the lights, decorations, or the gifts we exchange; its true essence lies in the warmth and connection we share with one another. For us, the Grade 9 teachers of Maryknoll College of Panabo, Inc., this sense of ๐ฝ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ป๐ท๐ฎ๐ผ๐ผ shines brightest in our united efforts, not only as colleagues but also as mentors, friends, and extended family to our students.
Throughout the year, we have worked hand in hand, fostering an environment where every student feels valued, supported, and understood. This ๐๐ฑ๐ป๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ช๐ผ season, that spirit of unity takes on even greater meaning. Just as families gather during this time to celebrate love and belonging, we are reminded that we, too, are a family. Our shared purpose, challenges, and triumphs bind us together in ways that transcend mere professional collaboration. We care for our students not just as learners but as individuals with hopes, dreams, and fears. And in their eyes, we see reflections of the love and guidance we strive to provideโ๐ฐ๐พ๐ฒ๐ญ๐ช๐ท๐ฌ๐ฎ ๐ฝ๐ฑ๐ช๐ฝ ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ป๐ธ๐ป๐ผ ๐ฝ๐ฑ๐ฎ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ช๐ป๐ฝ ๐ธ๐ฏ ๐ฝ๐ฑ๐ฎ ๐๐ฑ๐ป๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ช๐ผ ๐ผ๐น๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฝ.
This ๐๐ฑ๐ป๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ช๐ผ, may we continue to cherish this sense of togetherness as we journey forwardโhand in hand, heart to heartโnot just for our students but for each other, just as a family should. ๐ฃ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ป, we embody the spirit of ๐๐ฑ๐ป๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ช๐ผ: ๐พ๐ท๐ฒ๐ฝ๐, ๐ผ๐ฎ๐ต๐ฏ๐ต๐ฎ๐ผ๐ผ๐ท๐ฎ๐ผ๐ผ, ๐ช๐ท๐ญ ๐ต๐ธ๐ฟ๐ฎ that radiates far beyond the classroom.
