Cor Jesus is K to 12 Ready

“Cor Jesu College is 100% ready,” assured Dr. Kirt Anthony Diaz, school principal, regarding the school’s preparations for K-12’s advent this 2016.

For the past three years, the school is undergoing thorough preparations for K-12. Two workshops for the purpose of finalizing the K-12 curriculum participated by faculty both from the Basic Education Department and College Department in Eden, Davao City have been conducted. In terms of teacher positioning, the administration has also identified teachers who are competently qualified in handling the Grade 11 for S.Y. 2016–2017 through evaluations.

The school also bares four tracks for the senior high school program: Academics, VocTech, Sports, and Arts and Theatre. Partial offered courses under the Academics are Associate Engineering, Associate Nursing, and Associate Accountancy; Cookery, Bread and Pastry, Automotive, Welding, Electricity, Driving and Computer Hardware Servicing under VocTech, while both Sports and Arts and Theatre tracks only render one strand. With all the intensive preparations initiated by the school, some public and private schools have treated the school as a basis in terms of gearing up for K-12. As of now, the school is still waiting for the K-12 committee from Manila to visit and check the documents and facilities specially intended for the program. (Reina Tenebro)
