i ★ t h e bic o l st a r ★ Sept, io, t966 4 Filipinos to train in U.S. Appeal to the CSI1S Altin We Need Can Naga City Edu (By the CSIISAA Con The proposed Eduealional Canter will soon to be constructed in the City of Naga. This building will stand on the eastern side of tbe present Division Office at PenaFrancis Avenue inside the C 8. High school oompound. The present Provincial Beard bee donated a aix-bundred square-meter lot for this building with a frontage of tbirty-fivs meters. As eoon ae tbe donation papers are perfected, tbe construction will begin. The three associations C8HSAA, CASTEA and NAC1TEA will finanoe the construction estimated te cost more than one hunted fifty thousand pesos Why the Center? This Eduoaiional Center is necessary because it was felt that during tbe yearly alumni bome-soming of tbe G3HBAA, teachers conventions and other educational societies io Naga City aod in this province, the auditoriums of private institutions are used. Tbe present CSHS library is now too small for this affair Even tbe grandstands are not safe for tbe present needs. When tbe center building is constructed, tbe local chapters of national educational associations may have separate roams for their permanent beadquarters, for example, tbe Camarines Sur Home Economics leaobers AcsooistieB, tbe Future Homemakers of the Philippines, tbe Science Teachers Association ef the Philippines, tbe Philippine Family Life Workshops, etc Tbe important records of maDy olfiees needed for educatiaual research are only thrown away and there is no depository for these vital materials at present. School records are being lost every year due ta floods, fire, and ether calamities. Imagine tbe compiled records of Bikol folklore submitted after liberation by hundreds of lay men and teachers throughout tbe Division ef Oamsrinee bur which are nowhere to be found due te the lack of apace in tbe preseal Division Office building. This compilation of vital educational materials for Bikol culture will find a permanent home in our Center. Then comes tbe donation of hundreds of volumes of books, magazines, encyclopedias and other general reading somiBg from abroad solicited by teachers from educational foundations and from peaee corps volunteers who happened to be assigaed in this province. These vast materials are good for references and such materials may be used by our students, teachers, parents, and researchers Tbe big problem is where to bouse these voluminous reference mattrials AgaiD, this Center will answer this need. Donations from private individuals and colleetieDe coming from other sources may find tbeir place too in this edifice. While there arc public and private libraries in Naga City, tbe Center way ultimately bo used as elearieg bouse in tbe future. Can be a Show Window? The Center it is believed, marines Sur cational Center imiltee On Solicitation) may become the tourist attraction if properly advertized because tbe school projects especially tbe native handicrafts and other agri oaltural ae well as commer ciai products of tbe Bikol Region may be displayed. The Center may easily become tbe dieplay center for tbe Biool Development Board which up to cow has no headquarters, Incidentally inventors in this part of tbe Bikol Region may find this Center a place where they could find statistical data needed by those interested in business. Also a Rendezvous? Finally, tbe Center can be a meeting place for alumni who may desire to bold socials or provide rooms for tboso who during tbeir short visit to the City especially during tbe regional Perla Francia festivities cannot find adequate accommodation It oan be tbe meeting place for fellow alumni now scattered in many places in our oountry and those wbo are abroad. These are but a few of tbe services of tbe Center. But once constructed we can now look forward with confidence and pride for affording our alumni researchers and teachers a permanent beadquarters in the canter of Bioolandia. Our Appeal! Fellow alnmni, we are counting oa your generous support! This Center is a big challenge to our capacity to build bo w for tomorrow. Tbe six thousand wbo graduated and passed through tbe portals of tbe Camarines Sur High School eannot be wrong in supporting this worthy project. I he five thousand teachers in this school division have unanimously given tbeir share, How about yours?
