Microsoft Corporation recently named Philippines' Muntinlupa Science High School as of the 31 Most Innovative Schools in the world - besting 104 nominees from more than 40 countries.

On the merit of the school's efforts to use Information Technology to teach Mathematics, Science and English to its students and its commitment towards educational reform and development, MSHS was chosen one of Microsoft's Partners in Learning Innovative Schools Program's “Pathfinder schools in the world.”

The Award was given to MSHS at the Worldwide Innovative Education Forum held in Salvador, Brazil last November 2009. Along with the award, the school was given latest Microsoft toolkits to aid its ongoing IT programs.

“My principle is to learn, lead and share. My goal is to learn as much from these programs and lead my community and then, be able to share with others [...]

“Our high school students go to the community and find children in elementary grades who have difficulty reading and help them. With the use of laptops, they teach reading and make it very interactive and fun,” shared Madeline Ann Diaz, MSHS Principal.

Congratulations to Muntinlupa Science High School! Thank you for making all Filipinos proud!
