NSDAPS Shines on Day 1 of DSPC 2026

HAPPENING NOW | Delegates from The Aranzes Journal of Nuestra Señora de Aranzazu Parochial School, Inc. are currently at Pililla Elementary School Central to represent the San Mateo District in this year’s Division Schools Press Conference (DSPC) 2026 - Division of Rizal. Representing NSDAPS and the San Mateo District are Audrie Nathalie Pugan (10C), Mathea Mangilaya (9A), and Kirsten Ladia (11B), who are competing in the English Category in Feature Writing, Column Writing, and Photojournalism, respectively, together with their school paper adviser and The Aranzes Journal moderator, Mr. Ernest Jan Llamas. The three campus journalists earned Top 3 placements in their respective categories during the District Schools Press Conference on August 21, 2026, qualifying them to advance to the division-level competition. Now at the DSPC, the delegates put their journalism skills, creativity, and critical thinking to the test as they compete against fellow campus journalists from across the division. Meanwhile, Kate Tenedero (9E) will represent The Aranzes Journal in the Filipino Category for Editorial Cartooning on Sunday, September 20, 2026. As the competition unfolds, NSDAPS wishes all our delegates the best as they carry the school and the San Mateo District with pride. Padayon, Aranzes Journalists! 📸 & ✍️: Ernest Jan R.
