Sr. Nancy Esmera, FMC, of the Mary Help of Christians School and MACIS secretary, said they welcomed around 900 delegates from Catholic schools in the province.
MACIS started in November 24, 2021 during a meeting between Fr. Raymond Ruga, Apostolic Vicariate of Calapan Parochial Schools superintendent, MACIS president, and Fr. Cordero. “We discussed creating the association which also aims to [create] linkage to national organization – Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines ,” said Fr. Ruga.
This was followed, a week later, by a meeting at the Bishop’s Residence, by school heads of St. Augustine Seminary, Mary Help of Christians School, Tugdaan School and Shirley Alda, Mangyan Mission Schools’ representative for Mangyan Education Center and Paminhian Katutubong Paaralan ng mga Iraya. Alda was later on accompanied by the Episcopal Vicar for the Mangyans, Fr. Gabayno Oybad, the first and only Mangyan priest, and Fr. Ewald Dinter, SVD, and Fr. Ruga.“Catholic schools are known as schools that are thinking more deeply but must also know how to listen to the cry of the people in order to come up with tangible actions,” said Dr. Nicholas Capulong, director of the Department of Education in Mimaropa , told the delegates.
