OPENING DAY JITTERS AT XIJEN'S NEW HOME
Last June 13, Xijen staff has to start preparing for the move to transfer at the new building at Upper Caluttit, Bontoc. The new school is supposed to be readied by June 16 but due to some instances, the s
tart of classes resumed at main building so students have to make do with some opening day inconveniences. Then on June 19, classes were suspended until Saturday for the staff to fix and prepare the rooms at the new building.
During the transfer from the rented classrooms from the early days of Xijen, it’s good that some students came to help in the move, carrying of computers and all the things for the office. Although there are still many more unfinished works on the building, students and staff entered on June 23 after attending an orientation last June 18.
After moving to the new building, it’s hard to make adjustments considering that everyday there’s always a schedule conflict either with rooms or time availability of students which has to be moved or solved. The computers haven’t been fixed and IDs weren’t yet prepared. No wonder students started complaining on the changes of schedule and we have to give a meeting for concerned students regarding the conflicts and to apologize for the inconvenience caused by this problem.
After three weeks of our stay in this new building, there’s already an organized schedule and students have already adjusted to their new surroundings. So welcome students and hope you’ll have a wonderful stay with us. God speed!
