SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS STRAND (STEM)
The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Strand (STEM) is preparatory to science-related courses in college by deepening their grasp of concepts in Math and Science through lessons in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Calculus. Subjects in the STEM strand train students to solve problems, make sense of information, and gather and evaluate evidence to make data-backed decisions. The STEM strand integrates learning through interdisciplinary studies that harness problem-solving, critical analysis, and innovation.
GENERAL ACADEMIC STRAND (GA)
The General Academic Strand (GA) gives the students the freedom to explore a wide range of interests through a variety of subjects.

Message from the Principal
My dear Parents and Students,
I hope that you are all in perfect health and doing well.
I am aware that we all have our little battles during this uncertain period in our history. The Covid-19 pandemic is a reality we all have to face. It has drastically and suddenly disrupted our lives in so many different ways, and one of the most dramatic shifts was for education to be virtual. While the school’s priority is the health and safety of our students and teachers, PCCR responded and continued its goal for students to have academic progress and move forward in this kind of environment.
Teachers get trained on digital education and remote learning strategies. PCCR made sure that education will continue and found ways to reduce the negative impact this pandemic will have on learning.
Educational innovations and initiatives were put in place and are working excellently, especially with our competent and technology-driven teachers at their helm. Our faculty is not only prepared but equally skilled to deliver quality online instruction.
Regretfully, some of our teenagers struggle socially and emotionally because of the sudden restrictions imposed by authorities. They need to stay apart from their friends and classmates that cancel important educational milestones and traditions such as proms and graduation during this pandemic.
With this, the school provided support for social and emotional learning through webinars, guidance and counseling services, and many other meaningful online activities that foster social interaction and creative expression.
In this light, allow me to invite all of you to our home and experience digital learning at its best. PCCR High School is not just a school, but a family of a supportive, caring, loving, and growing community that takes pride in faculty excellence, educational technology, character development, and academic achievement where every student’s life matters.
For now, let us continue to pray for our country and our world in these extraordinary times. Please take care of yourself, your family, and your loved ones.
I look forward to welcoming you this coming school year.
Genevieve D. Faraon
Principal, High School
