Mr. Joel A. Hawod, Senior High School Science Teacher and International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP) Biology teacher is the recipient of the 2022 Salindunong Award.
After participating in one of the webinars sponsored by the United Federation of Fil-Am Educators (UNIFFIED), Mr. Hawod’s caliber as an educator was noticed by one of the organizers, and this paved the way to his eventual recognition.
The Salindunong Award honors active members of UNIFFIED who share their knowledge and/or expertise by conducting professional development training, seminars, webinar, or workshops under Salindunong initiative.
Xavier School is truly proud of these two educators who have constantly let their light shine. May they continue to serve as inspirations and beacons of light to the Xavier School community and beyond.
