Saint Scholastica’s college received criticisms from the Netizens after they allowed their grade school students to join the anti-marcos rally on Friday. Some of them accused the school of forcing their students to join the noise barrage.
But one of the school administrator of St Scholastica’s college Mr. JM Lim explained that the SSC didn’t forced their students to join the protest, they also asked permission to the parents of the students if they are going to allow their daughters to participate in the noise barrage.
Netizen Sonny Arellano Hernandez also uploaded the sample of the circular that Saint Scholastica distributed for their high school students on September 17.

The circular said:
“Dear Junior High School ParentsGreetings of Peace, Love and Joy in the name of Christ Jesus!St. Scholastica’s College Manila is participating in the People’s Noise Barrage. This is a way to protest the Supreme Court’s decision on the late President Ferdinand Marcos Burial in the Libingan ng mga Bayani. This will be held tomorrow, Friday, November 18, 2017 at 12:00 at Leon Guinto Street.In line with this, we would like to request your permission to allow your daughter to join this momentous event to show our commitment as Scholasticans, to truth justice in transforming society. Let us not forget the cry of the victims of Martial Law and the corruption done to our country by the Marcos family and their cronies.
The circular was signed by the principal, there’s also a reply slip in the bottom of the circular where the parents would reply their decision.
The event was also organized to protest against the supreme court decision on Marcos burial and it’s only coincidence that Marcos was also be buried on the exact date of the protest.
