Sweet Alma Mater
Around and o'er thee lies
Fair scenes of earth and skies
My Filamer
But thou art fairer far
To me thou child thine art
Beauties of earth and skies
My Filamer
HALLS OF FILAMER
Oh we love the halls of Filamer
That surrounds us here today
And we will not forget tho
We be far, far away.

To the hallowed halls of Filamer

Every voice will bid farewell
And shimmer off in twilight
Like the old vesper bell.

One day a hush will fall

The footsteps of us all
Will echo down the hall and disappear
But as we sadly start, our journeys far apart
A part of every heart will linger here.

In the sacred halls of Filamer

Where weve lived and learned to know
That through the years we'll see you
In the sweet after glow.

Foreword
Quality education requires quality student services . To be
able to achieve this, knowing what things to do and how to do them
are essential for a smooth and efficient operation.

With this in mind, and in support to the Administrations

continuous effort towards development, the Student Affairs Office has
MANUAL OF OPERATION come up with a manual that will guide its operation this year and the
next academic years to come.

For This Manual of Operation contains the Policies, Guidelines

and Procedures that will be used by the DSA and other School
Authorities in making decisions on matters that concern student
discipline, student development, and student organizations and their
activities.
Knowing that nothing is permanent in our world today, so is
this Manual. As new legislations, DepEd and CHED Orders come, the
need for revisions will just be proper, for the Unit to cope up with the
changing times.
For this time however, it is my hope that this Manual of
Operation, will be of help not only to the DSA, the faculty and staff, the
School Authority but most of all to our beneficiaries-- our students.
