New batch of alumni
OATH TAKING OF NEW ALUMNI. The Officers & Directors of Lanao Chung Hua School Alumni Association tendered a Fellowship Dinner in honor of the graduating class of Batch 2006 on March 28, 2006 at 2nd Floor Patio Alejandra Restaurant, San Miguel St., Iligan City at 6:30 p.m. One of the highlights of the affair was the oath taking ceremony of the new graduates as new alumni. The ceremony was followed by a free flowing exchange of ideas of the problems of the students inside the school. This year’s batch is the highest number of graduating students, comprising of 18 boys & 13 girls. And out of 31 students 10 are of non-Chinese lineages. We could see really that they can succeed. A short program was presented and the School Principal William K. Payonan, School Director Henry T. Siao, and Assistant School principal Christine Veronica Uy were on hand to grace the affair.

Welcome home, Al-Al!
