PROLOGUE

The education of the youth is a concerted effort of various institutions:


the home, the community and the Church. However, the home and the
school assume a more dominant role in the preparation of the youth for the
good life and in view of the strategic relationship they expect of him/her.
It is our hope that this handbook will help Colegio de la Purisima
Concepcion High School (CPC HIGH) learners understand their rights,
privileges and responsibilities. This contains the vision/mission of CPC
HIGH; the objectives of the high school department and the school’s rules
and regulations/policies and practices apply to all learners and are
expected to be followed strictly. We are asking our dear parents to be
familiar with this handbook and help us ensure that our learners comply
with the norms of behavior and requirements of CPC HIGH education.
As dynamic partners in the education of our youth, we share this
handbook with the parents of our learners so that all will be aware how
CPC HIGH develops its learners spiritually, intellectually, physically,
emotionally and socially. All rules, regulations, and policies included herein
shall apply to all current CPC HIGH students and shall have retroactive
effect.

Welcome to Colegio de la Purisima Concepcion!

CPC through the Years

The Colegio de la Purisima Concepcion (CPC) was established in


response to the great demand for Catholic education in the Province of
Capiz particularly in the City of Roxas. True to its motto “Pro Deo et Patria”,
CPC has become an extension of a Catholic home and of the Catholic
Church. A brief account of significant events in the history of CPC follows.

Its Beginnings

CPC was founded in June 1948 by Msgr. Vicente M. Gonzales, D.P., then
parish priest of the Immaculate Conception Parish. As first director and
treasurer, Msgr. Gonzales braved the storm of uncertainties and steered
the institution towards stability. Two nipa and bamboo shacks with five
rooms housed 400 high school students, 25 of whom became its first batch
of graduates in school year 1948-49. Mrs. Concepcion Greenman-Layne
was the first high school principal.

The following year (1949-50), collegiate courses – One-Year Secretarial,


Associate in Arts (General and Pre-Law) and Junior Normal leading to the
Elementary Teacher’s Certificate (ETC) – were offered. Fr. Salvador
Mabasa was appointed director by Msgr. Jose Ma. Cuenco, then bishop of
Jaro. Ms. Marina H. Hundana headed the Junior Normal School and Mr.
Ramon Flores became the first registrar. The nipa shacks had to give way
to two 2-storey Quonset buildings.

In the third year of its operation (1950-51), CPC opened its doors to
elementary education with Ms. Hundana as the first principal. That same
school year marked the first commencement exercises of the Elementary
Department.

When the Diocese of Capiz was canonically erected in 1951, CPC was
made a diocesan school for men and women. The first ordinary of the
Diocese, Bishop Manuel Yap, was the first chairman of the Board of
Trustees. He was succeeded by then Bishop Antonio F. Frondosa in 1952
followed by Archbishop Onesimo C. Gordoncillo in 1986. The present
chairman, Archbishop Jose F. Advincula, Jr., took over the chairmanship in
2012 upon the retirement of Archbishop Gordoncillo.

6|High School Handbook


Msgr. Sinforiano Fuerte took over the reins of the school in 1951 when Fr.
Salvador Mabasa left for the United States for further studies. More courses
in the tertiary level were offered: Bachelor of Science in Education, ETC
combined with Home Economics, Pre-dental course and the first two years
of Bachelor of Science in Commerce.

It was in 1953-54 when CPC offered the complete four-year course in


Commerce with Accounting and Banking and Finance as major subjects.
The following year, it offered Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education.

CPC first distinguished itself in the national scene when its cum laude
graduate in Commerce, Reynaldo Felizardo, made it to the top 10 (6 th
place) in the CPA board exams in 1956.

Years of Growth and Expansion

The construction of the three-storey building in the main campus was


started in 1957 to meet the demands of the increasing enrolment. After
many years of hard work, CPC was able to complete its main campus in
1980.

The College of Education also made a name in 1960 when its magna cum
laude graduate, Fe Gomez-Villarruz, topped the competitive examination
for teachers in Roxas City and in the Province of Capiz.

It was in 1962 when the school director assumed the title of Rector; thus,
Fr. Sinforiano Fuerte was installed as the first rector of CPC.

The College opened its doors to graduate education in 1963 with Dr.
Carmen F. Rodil as the first Graduate School dean. It offered Master of Arts
in Education with educational administration, guidance and counseling and
elementary education as fields of concentration.

The school year also marked the opening of the College of Law with Atty.
Venicio T. Escolin, who later became an Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court, as its first dean. Its first graduate, Atty. Victor Azagra, passed the bar
examination given in 1967.

7|High School Handbook


School year 1968-69 was the start of CPC’s Engineering program under
the leadership of Dean Arturo Uvas. The program later brought CPC to the
limelight with its sizable number of board passers; more so, when two of its
graduates made it to the top ten in the board examination for civil engineers
------ Cezar Talabucon, Jr., 4th place, 1989; and Joel C. Villaruz, 2nd place,
1991.

In 2002, the School of Criminology was opened with Gregorio Mendoza as


dean.

Years of Transition and Progress

As the Administration changed hands from Msgr. Sinforiano Fuerte (1951-


1988) to Msgr. Nepthtali S. Irisari (1988-2000) to Msgr. Vicente F. Hilata
(2000-2012) to Msgr. Policarpio John Luza (2012-2014) to its present
rector, Msgr. Rufino Regie A. Pamposa (2014- to date), CPC has markedly
inched its way to progress. Its physical expansion has enabled the College
to cope with its tremendous growth and development. Its curricular
programs namely, BSBA, BSED, BEED, Criminology, Computer
Engineering and Basic Education (Grade School) have withstood the rigors
of accreditation (ACSCU, PACUCOA, PAASCU). Other programs are being
readied for accreditation. ISO-TUV voluntarily certifies the management
processes of the College (CAS, CED, CBMA, CCJ, CET and CME ISO
9001-2008). Summarily, the Quality Assurance Office has pushed for
quality and excellence in its operations.

CPC also received awards of excellence from the Commission on Higher


Education (CHED) for its outstanding performances and substantial gains
in physical facilities, faculty development and effective community
extension services. One of its students, Ms. Precy Bacalangco, was
awarded as one of the Outstanding Student Leaders in Western Visayas in
1995. Another student, Roma C. Padua, brought honors to CPC when she
was chosen as one of the Ten Outstanding Students of the Philippines in
2007. Ms. Padua stands out as the first student from Capiz to get the
award.

8|High School Handbook


CPC has three campuses: 1. the Main Campus with its three-storey
building housing the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business
Management and Accountancy, College of Criminal Justice, the Junior

Campus (formerly Mount Carmel Family Life Learning Center) which is an
extension of the Pre-School and Grade School Departments.

Established three years earlier than the Diocese of Capiz, CPC celebrated
its Golden Jubilee in 1998 and its Diamond Jubilee in 2009.

CPC can look back to its glorious past with pride, more determined to
pursue academic excellence in line with its mission and vision towards
Christian formation “for God and Country.” It can humbly boast of its roll of
distinguished alumni headed by Jaime Cardinal Sin, Bishop Vicente
Navarra, Bishop Dinualdo Gutierrez, Ambassador Francisco Alba, Justice
Josue Bellosillo of the Supreme Court, Justice Roberto Barrios of the Court
of Appeals, noted cardiologist Adolfo B. Bellosillo, former Congressman
Rodriguez Dadivas, Congressman Fredenil Castro, DPWH Director

The CPC HIGH learner will therefore have it at heart to obey all school
rules and regulations whether he/she is on or off the campus, observed or
unobserved.

learner who engages in disruptive or scandalous behavior outside of the
school, especially when in uniform, sets a poor example to other learners and
subjects the school to embarrassment and/or may damage the school’s good
reputation. Thus, he/she may be subjected to an inquiry and disciplinary action
if so warranted.

with the reply slip should be secured from the teacher in
charge of the activity. Such letter must have the approval
and/or notation of the Assistant Principal and/or Principal.

Q. Security

A perceived threat to school order and safety is the presence of


unauthorized persons who loiter in and around the school. Therefore, all
members of the school community must become alert and report immediately
such outsiders to school authorities. The school has the responsibility to ensure
the safety of all the members of its community, has the obligation to protect its
property and the property of its members, and to preserve peace and order in
the community. Everybody is expected to know and observe certain security

Holy God, We Praise Thy Name

Holy God, we praise Thy name;


Lord of all, we bow before Thee!
All on earth Thy scepter claim,
All in Heaven above adore Thee;
Infinite Thy vast domain
Everlasting is Thy reign. (2x

Lupang Hinirang
By: Julian Felipe

Bayang magiliw, Perlas ng Silanganan


Alab ng puso, sa dibdib mo'y buhay
Lupanghinirang, duyankangmagiting
Samanlulupig, di kapasisiil
Sa dagat at bundok, sa simoy at salangit mong bughaw;
May dilagang tula at awit sa paglayang minamahal.
Ang kislap ng watawat mo'y tagumpay na nagniningning,
Ang bituin at araw niya kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim.
Lupangaraw, ng luwalhati't pag sinta,
Buhay at langit sa piling mo;
Aming ligaya na pag may mang-aapi
Ang mamatay ng dahil sa iyo.

Purisima beloved, our hearts are all for thee


Thy crystal font of learning,
With grateful hearts to thee we sing
Thy founder brave and true
Blazed the trails over trials and sorrows
Thy name we cherish, sweetly nurtured with bliss
With fervent prayers, from thy portals we would march on
Hope soaring high, will resound with the challenge of time.
Onward we march and raise the banner of glory forever
Hail dear Alma Mater! Hail to thee all hail!

APOSTLE’S CREED

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and
in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born
of the Virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried.
He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into
heaven, is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall
come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the
Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the
resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Glory to God in the highest, and peace to His people on earth. Lord God, heavenly
King, Almighty God and Father, we worship You, we give you thanks, we praise You

take away the sins of the world: have mercy on us; You are seated at the right hand
of the Father: receive our prayer. For You alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with
the Holy Spirit, in the glory of the Father. Amen.

ACT OF CONTRITION

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins,
because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell; but most of all because I
offended you my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve,
with the help of you grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life.
Amen

never be; From the evil one protect me; At the hour of my death, call me; And close
to you bid me; That with your saints, I may be praising you forever and ever. Amen.
