===> Closest High School Pix :)
I just received the details of the week long celebration of my High School alma mater and the celebration would be from Feb 11-15, 2008. I graduated HS in 1994 and I’m proud to be a product of JASHS/PHS (Jose Abad Santos – former name of the school)
The establishment of Pampanga High School happened one hundred years ago. This Institution made it through a lot of experiences… wars, typhoons, disastrous lahar flows, recurring floods. Despite all of these, it still remains a pride of Pampanga. Now, we are to celebrate the 100 years of excellence in PHS Education. To produce students such as the former president Diosdado Macapagal amongst others, will always and forever give honor to the school.
PHS Sentenaryu will feature events sponsored and organized by the alumni, teachers, students and friends. The entire PHS community, the benefactors and other various groups to this end are jointly working together for the success of this celebration. Her Excellency, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo gave us the pleasure to be part of this occasion as well as one of her cabinet members, no less than the Secretary of Education, Honorable Secretary Jesli Lapus.
Guided by discipline, humility, competence, social responsibility and commitment, the PHS Sentenaryu aims to celebrate and express thanksgiving for the school’s 100 years of existence, to honor the alumni who have exemplified in their own fields of endeavor, to give tribute to the endless assistance of true friends, to give heartwarming joy and laughter to less fortunate children, to formulate a vision to the next 100 years, blending the legacies of the past, realities of the present and challenges of the future.
Now, PHS awaits for your presence…
Of all the events, this is what I’m looking forward to attending. So sad that it happens on a Tuesday and I don’t think I’ll be able to go on VL. *Sighs. Sniff…sniff*

FEBRUARY 12, 2008 Grand Alumni Homecoming; “Pamanuling High School”
The biggest one ever in a hundred years! This will truly be an affair of the heart. The pride of the School will all be remembered and paid tribute. Singing of old school songs will be interspersed between awards. Former schoolmates, mentors and friends will finally come together to fill the grounds of their alma mater. To intensify the spirit of being home at PHS even more, everybody is encouraged to wear his/her High School uniform during their generation. Production numbers featuring the alumni, fun games, story telling as well as class picture taking will be enjoyed all throughout the program. And so as not to cut short the fun after the main event, the alumni are even urged to hold their own class reunions at their former classrooms. A tour around the campus will definitely bring back the good old high school days. This moment is not only meant to see each other but to rekindle the spirit, renew the bond that once and forever will bind the PHS family together.
=> I don’t think that I would fit my HS uniform anymore. I was really really thin back then compared to me being oompa loompa now :p
