Successful SLCV - HSPA Partnership Results in CCTV System


 

St. Louis College Valenzuela celebrated last month the installation and roll-out of its closed-circuit television system in partnership with the High School Parents' Association.

Realizing that security, safety, and behavioral improvements can be made with modern technology, St. Louis College Valenzuela together with the High School Parents Association successfully carried out one of its more ambitious projects todate with a complex system of 16 CCTV's in strategic places throughout the Maysan campus.

Its processes include the use of multiple pan, tilt and zoom-in cameras (PTZ) that are monitored from a central control panel as well as being viewable and controllable over the network. There is also video clip recording for documentation purposes without violating privacy rights and a switcher that allows the operator to call up different camera feeds into view or even view multiple cameras simultaneously.

The adage, "It is better to be safe than sorry", is a must for all. CCTV's bring a more practical way of monitoring the strict observation of discipline and the implementation of school rules and policies in the campus. Mere knowledge of its presence gives a sense of awareness that somebody is watching and guides students intrinsically to be mindful of their behavior and actions. They also facilitate better access control for employees and visitors, thus promoting a safer working environment.

It even tightens security measures against unauthorized entrances and misconducts within the confines of the campus. These state-of-the-art technologies provide the much needed sense of being safe and secure while accumulating learning and working at the same time in a friendly and worry-free environment. It is truly a very big and innovative blessing to the Louisian community.

PCTR '84 Reunites,
Launches Webcast

As 2009 approached its end, the PCTR Class of 1984 successfully held their 25th Anniversary reunion. It was a night full of fun games, memories, and plenty of food and drink for all. As another first, the festivities were streamed on the internet through the Campus Wifi system with over a dozen batch mates (mostly based overseas) joining in the online chat and video feed. Some even paricipated via an online phone patch and managed to greet their batch mates from thousands of kilometers away!

SLCV Assists in Flood Reconstruction, Adopts One of Its Own as Endorser

At the annual Christmas party last December, St. Louis College Valenzuela extended some financial assistance to several employees severely affected by typhoon Ondoy.  This was conceptualized to provide the maximum assistance possible for those who were most affected, and with the end in view of helping them get on their feet again.

At about the same time it has enlisted one of its own, Mr. Mark Logan of ABS-CBN's TV Patrol, as our (mainly print) endorser for the next 2 years.  Mark serves as a good example of SLCV/PCTR education and is a viable role model for today's youth.
