General Santos City Mayor Darlene Antonino-Custodio recently led the tribute to another General who had brought honor to the city by excelling in the field of education.
Mrs. Marivi L. Castro, of the General Santos City Special Education Integrated School(SPED), this city is chosen as one of the top 10 bests in Metrobank Foundation’s Search for Outstanding Teachers among 38 finalists nationwide.
“I did not expect to win,” she said in her speech at the Monday’s Flag Ceremony of City Hall employees.
Custodio encouraged other teachers to be devoted not only for awards like this but also for personal fulfillment.
“The students will never forget a teacher all their lives,” she said.
The Metrobank Foundation has the theme “Excel. Engage. Empower.” promoting a culture of excellence among Filipinos through its various programs such as the Metrobank Art & Design Excellence (MADE), the Search for The Outstanding Philippine Soldiers (TOPS), the Search for the Country’s Outstanding Policemen in Service (COPS), the Metrobank Math Challenge (MMC), College Scholarship Program (CSP) and Excellence in Judiciary Program (EJP) and the SOT.
It aims to strength ties with institutional partners in both public and private sectors such that there will always be a venue to further honor those who are able to reach their highest potential.
Today, the Foundation remains steadfast in its commitment to remain a leader in corporate social responsibility by initiating and supporting leading edge programs that uplift the lives of our people and inspire the best in the Filipinos. [Chris Sulit]
