Students

        The students for me is one of the most important part of the school community since the school wouldn't be complete without them. I am a proud student of Sacred Heart School- Ateneo de Cebu. I am glad I transferred because if I didn't transfer I wouldn't know what it would be like to win soccer competitions, I wouldn't know what it would be like to have new friends because in the school where I was before the population was quite low, and there weren't usually new students, so naturally I was still friends with the same people. Here in Ateneo de Cebu I learned how to make new friends. Especially in class, since this year  most of my classmates weren't my classmates before. I am very happy that I am in Grade 8-Campion this year, I've made friends with new students. School started a month ago, and I already made lots of memories with my classmates. My class is my family and I can't wait what other memories are about to happen on the coming days.

Athletes

     Sacred Heart School-Ateneo de Cebu is the home of one of the best athletes in the city. SHS-AdC has one countless times in competitions. Such as, basketball games, soccer games, swimming tournaments, and the like. Here, athletes are taught how to manage their time with academics and sports. That is why there is a strict rule regarding your grades when it comes to sports. The rule is when you fail a subject you have to take a break from your sport and focus more on the academic field more. Some students are even offered with scholarships because of sports. Our athletes are determined to be champions, they practice hard, play hard, and think hard. They make sure their practices pay off by them winning or learning lessons.

Academic Athletes

      Athletes aren't only people who play sports, SHS-AdC also have academic athletes. Like the Mathletes and the IYS members. These students are gifted in their academic field especially in Math and Science. Here, students are taught new tricks to enhance their gift and improve it. Being an Academic Athlete is quite fun, I am one actually. I am one of the members of the SHS-AdC Mathletes, and one of the perks of being a Mathlete is that you can get 10% error allowance. Which means that the 10% of the perfect score is the perfect score, which means it is possible to get higher than the perfect score. The Summer Camp training is also very memorable. We learn lots of tricks in Math which is great by the way. You might think it only smart students get accepted, but a great mentor of mine, Ms. Jacqueline Dinela told us that it doesn't matter if you're smart or not as long as you're determined to learn then you'll surely be accepted. 

Blue Tag, Dance Troupe, DBLC and Glee

       Ateneo Hearters are also very talented when it comes to fine arts. One of the most important clubs is the DBLC. The DBLC is the school's band, they are always there for sport tournaments and the like. During assemblies they always play during the Entry of Colors, but that's not the only important club. Recently a club called BLUE TAG was formed. Blue Tag is the home of the school's best actors. 2 years ago they came up with a play "Teenage Dream". It was a very nice and creative play. They hold auditions during the first few weeks of school. I am too scared to audition for Tag, so I tried to audition for Dance Troupe since I wanted to try something new. Luckily I got it. Auditions aren't so bad, all you have to prove to them is that you're determined to be in and that you're confident that you can get it. That was what I had in mind when I was about to audition. All I have to do is be positive because being very pessimistic is very unhealthy. Sometimes it can ruin everything. Like the time my friend Mary Anelsa "Tweety" Lao auditioned for Glee. She's a great singer but she didn't get in because she was nervous. We still do hope that the Glee staff will give in and maybe let her in, but if she was very confident she could have gotten in Glee. Glee by the way is a group of creative singers, just like the show minus the drama. Still Glee without the drama is very fun. All of these programs are very unforgettable. I hope next year more and more of students will be able to boost their confidence and join in.
