Today, Zamboanga mourns with the Ateneo de Zamboanga community. A school should be a sanctuary where children learn, build friendships, and dream about their future—not a place where they have to fear for their lives.
Our deepest condolences to the family who lost a child, and our prayers go to every student, teacher, parent, and school personnel affected by this tragedy.
May this painful day remind us that the safety of our children must never be taken for granted. Let us protect our students, listen to them, look after one another, and never allow violence to become normal in our schools.
Rest in peace to the innocent life lost. May healing and strength surround the entire Ateneo and Zamboanga community.
