Why I Choose GAS

   


 
 I choose GAS strand because GAS or General Academics Strand is the most flexible strand among the four strands offered in the Academic Track because students get to learn and experience something from all the other strands. GAS is essentially for students who are undecided on which strand to take

GAS is a Senior High School strand that takes on a generalist approach in preparing students for college. It covers various disciplines like Humanities, Social Sciences, Organization, and Management.

Since GAS does not specialize in any strand, you are free to choose any college degree program under the three other strands based on the elective you will choose. Moreover, a possible course to pursue from this strand is Education.

What you will gain from the GAS Strand:

  • Hone you creative writing skills.
  • Learn about Organization Management.
  • Learn about Empowerment Technologies.
  • Gain knowledge of Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction.
  • Develop your communication skills.
