Responding to the virtual
activities held by MIS, Celine Pontoh, a grade 12 science student at MIS High
School professes that the virtual MIS
program continues to increase gradually; how preparations are done, ensuring that
the program runs well, almost without technical problems and it fulfills her
needs as student who does an online learning, "My favorite is the virtual
career fest, especially I found it beneficial since I am on my senior
years."
Meanwhile, for Pricilia Worotikan,
a 12th grade science student at MIS High School, said that the virtual MIS
program is very creative and provides opportunities for students to participate
in every designed and created activity. This is one way for students to always
feel excited to listen to the lecture to prevent drowsiness.
MIS administrators and teachers are
always hand in hand in moving forward to always provide activities that can
explore talents and appreciate their innate skills and interests, and that can
arouse their enthusiasm even though the activities are carried out virtually.
