The two Himamaylan topnotchers in the recent Licensure Examinations for Professional Teachers (LEPT) will receive P10,000 in cash incentive each from City Mayor Raymund Tongson.
West Visayas State University-Himamaylan Campus graduates Sheila Marie Delgado and Jeriel Grace Mabulay, who ranked 7th and 9th, respectively, were among the 87 exam takers, who made it to the Top 10 of the LEPT elementary level.
The topnotchers will be honored on Dec. 15 by Tongson, along with WVSU campus administrator Genesis Camarista, where they will receive their incentives from the mayor.
WVSU-Himamaylan logged a 100 percent passing rate among it 44 first-time takers, while three of five repeaters also successfully hurdled the exams administered in September. The school’s overall performance was rated 95 percent.
Tongson expressed his heartfelt congratulations to both Himamaylanon topnotchers and their batchmates who passed the exam.
“This is a testament that the quality education provided by WVSU-Himamaylan Campus, complemented by our city government’s academic support programs, can produce success stories and competent graduates,” Tongson said in a press release Dec. 12.
Delgado is a native of Brgy. Caradio-an, while Mabulay is from Brgy. Carabalan. Both graduated at WVSU in June 2023.
“These accomplishments do not only honor the campus, but also inspire more students in Himamaylan to do well in their academic and board exams,” Tongson added. ||
