Hello fellow Toressians
!!! We want to welcome you to our unofficial Batch '78 Website.
We want to take advantage of the WorldWideWeb to link us all together again.
We are sure that those four years in the campus is full of memories and
camaraderie.
If you are dying to hear about your long
lost friend, chances are you might hear about them here on the batch site.
If you are lucky, they might even have an email address and gives you a
chance to keep in touch with them again.
KaEskwela
plans to serve as the force that will bind us all together as one bunch
of friends.

How did we get here???
A bunch of VI-Math-1, inspired by the ease
and swiftness of communication through email thought of putting together
a website that will link them and update each other on what's new and exciting
on their classmates. Along the way, we welcomed our friends in the
batch as one of our own in our special Page, Friends of the IV-Math.
The page grew so fast and with many other
people involved and sharing information on our batchmates, it is inevitable
to create a website that will serve the whole batch of '78 as one big circle
of friends.
We hope to get your participation by sending
us pictures, information, mini-reunions, gatherings and events that relates
to us. We welcome comments and suggestions, too. Hop in our
"Eskwela Bus" and enjoy surfing our webpages! |
Bring Back The Good Old Days
Do you have one of those retro photos from
the campus??? We would love to feature them on the site to reminisce
the good old campus days. Please send it to the nearest Isang Bigkis pilot
team member and they will scan it and return them to you.
If your picture is chosen, you will
be rewarded with one million... thanks + a chance to give the world access
to your "guy in the flare pants" pic.

Hollywood Stars
Here is a proof that the Batch of 78 is everywhere.
Lex
Parado and Romeo Austria coincidentally bumped
into each other in Universal Studios. Lex was on line buying the
tickets for his mom, sister & family, when he recognized Romeo Austria
with his two nephews. Lex introduced the whole family to Romeo and Tess
thought it would be nice to take some shots of Lex and his old friend.
Romeo lives in Winnipeg, Canada with his family, but was in California
because his father was ill. Lex really wanted to take Romeo out to
lunch or dinner and catch things up with him but a very busy schedule didn't
permit them to do so. |

Teacher of the Month
Sir Rudy Gutierrez
"Once
a boyscout, always a boyscout." Sir
Rudy is one of THS teachers who has the most influence and impact on the
students. Ask any boyscout in the batch and they will confirm that
what he learned from Sir Rudy will always be in his heart and will always
make a difference in his life.
We
would like to congratulate Sir Rudy who will be receiving the Golden
Tamaraw from the Boy Scouts of the Philippines this month.
It is the highest award for boyscouts in the country and Sir Rudy is the
first and the only awardee of this highest honor. We are very proud
of you Sir Rudy!
At 75, after recovering
from three hospitalizations, he is not showing any sign of stopping.
Retirement did not keep him away from being a scoutmaster in different
school. For him, the real way to happiness is by giving happiness
to others.
Sir Rudy, you are a legend
in your own time and rest asure that your legacy will live on because
of what you implanted in our hearts and souls. From all your sons
in batch '78, we salute you!!! Congratulations
