MSC Origins part X: MSC HS Opens at MSC Annex

In 1995, MSC was occupying the 4^th floor floor of the La Suerte building along Rizal Avenue, MSC main and the former Agrix Supermarket along A. Fule St. fondly called MSC annex.

Before the end of school year 1995-1996, a local event caused the displacement of numerous students, and they frantically looked for high schools to enroll in.

MSC High School

The city mayor quickly responded with the establishment of public high schools, known then as the city high annexes to accommodate the students who suddenly had no school to go to. However, the government could not provide for ALL transfer students. Parents were looking for private schools to relocate their children. MSC stepped up by quickly accomplishing all requirements and applying for a high school permit.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly and the permit was granted in time for the opening of school year 1996-97. MSC annex became MSC High School, with 63 students enrolled from first to third year on its first year of operation.

Classes for the high school were only until 3 or 4 pm, so the classrooms were used by techical-vocational students until 8pm.

Alumni update: EDGAR V. CAUYAN – 3-year CTC class 1995

Edgar V. Cauyan was one of the pioneer staff of the software development division of MSC. To further enrich his knowledge he enrolled in short-term courses while he was an employee at MSC. In 1992, he registered in the two-year computer technology course, finished it in 1994, then continued the third year which he finished in 1995.

MSC Origins Part VI: Transfer to M. Paulino

In a short span of less than two years, the Jesusa Building along A. Flores St. which housed MSC on the second floor (and Monte de Piedad Savings Bank on the first floor) in 1989 became too small for the growing number of MSC students. In October 1991, MSC transferred to a bigger site along M. Paulino St.

Converting Fahrenheit to Celsius

To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, we use the following formula,

C = 5/9 (F – 32) = 10/18 (F – 32)

The trick here is to recognize that 5/9 is the same as 10/18. Hence after deducting 32, we add a zero (multiply by 10) to the result and successively dividing by 2 and 9 (MSC 11 – Dividing by 9) to effectively divide by 18.

MSC High School: Consistent Cyberfair winner

Ever since the Philippine Schools Cyberfair competition was launched in 2001, MSC High School has been a consistent winner. In the International Cyberfair competiton, MSC has also been consistently winning in the largest inter-school web design contest.

The International schools CyberFair, which started in 1996 is an award-winning, authentic learning program used by schools and youth organizations around the world. Students conduct research about their local communities and use digital media to publish their findings online. Recognition is given to the best projects in each of eight categories: local leaders, businesses, community organizations, historical landmarks, environment, music, art, and local specialties.

First to offer Digital Photo Printing Services in San Pablo – MSC Imaging Solutions

With the advent of digital cameras, phonecams, webcams, and even pencams, it is very common to see photo printing shops everywhere. But did you know that MSC was the first to offer this service to San Pableños?

MSC 11 – Division by 9

Most of us want to avoid the number 9 in almost all calculations. But we can make calculations easier by thinking of 9 as (10 – 1). This fact is particularly useful in division by 9.

Every 10 contains a 9 and a remainder of 1. So every multiple of ten that is less than 90 will have a quotient and remainder equal to its tens digit.

MSC Origins Part V: Keeping Students Safe During Calamities

MSC occupied the second floor of the Jesusa building along A. Flores St. for less than two years. In that short span of time, we experienced two of the most devastating natural calamities recorded in Philippine history – the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo and the Luzon earthquake.

Converting Degrees Celsius to Degrees Fahrenheit

The formula for converting degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit is

F = 9/5 C + 32

So it is customary to multiply the Celsius value by 9 and divide it by 5 before adding 32 to the result. A little manipulation of the formula will make it suitable to mental calculation. The decimal equivalent of 9/5 is 1.8 which is simply 2 – 0.2.

Featured batch: MSC Computer Training Center class 1994 – second batch of tech-voc students

The second batch of students who enrolled at MSC Computer Training Center was initially composed of 85 students, 46 Computer Technology course and 39 Office Management course students.

They spent their MSC days at the Alvero building along M. Paulino St. (in front of Ultimart). This batch was one of the liveliest batches of MSC. Various organizations were formed despite the small number of students compared to big schools, and these orgs actively participated in school activities and even sponsored some events.

The first Internet Service Provider (ISP) in San Pablo

When the Internet first became popular in the mid 90’s, the common way of accessing the Internet was through a dial-up connection. The PC was connected to the MODEM, then to the telephone line. The user needed to dial an ISP or Internet Service Provider number and the ISP connected him to the Internet. Connection was slow by today’s standard ( 9.6kbps was super fast then, and it took at least 14 minutes to download a 1MB file). What was worse was that one’s telephone was busy the whole time they were connected to the net and they pay the ISP and the telephone company separately ( sometimes with long distance charges )

MSC 10 – Multiplying by 5, 50, 5%, etc

Five is 10 divided by 2. To multiply by 5, we can

multiply first by 10 then divide the product by 2 or
divide the multiplicand by 2 first and then add a zero at the end of the quotient.
This shortcut requires only the skill of dividing by 2.
