Students of Grade 8 St. Benedict, together with their parents and adviser, stand proud as they receive their awards during the 60th Commencement Exercises at Saint Teresita’s Academy School Gymnasium
On April 6, 2017, 12 TYK-STA scholars stood out and were awarded for their dedication and exemplary academic performance during the 60th Commencement Exercises for Junior High School of the Saint Teresita’s Academy (STA) in Aritao, Nueva Vicaya.
At the graduation ceremony, proud parents held their heads high as they joined their children onstage in receiving their awards. These students belonged to the first batch of farmers’ children who received Tan Yan Kee Foundation, Inc. scholarships for the school year 2016-2017. TYKFI carefully selected these students to attend a private Catholic school under a pilot partnership project which aimed to uplift the lives of farmers’ families.
