On the 20th of November 2023, The Ateneo de Davao University (AdDU) Senior High School (SHS) community celebrated the culmination of the National Science and Technology Week (NSTW) with the theme: "Siyensiya, Teknolohiya, at Inobasyon: Kabalikat sa Matatag, Maginhawa, at Panatag na Kinabukasan" at the school's gymnasium, to commemorate how science, technology, engineering, and math contribute in developing our nation.
After the suspension of classes last Friday, November 17, due to the city mayor's ordinance, moving the event's scheduled date. The NSTW Culmination is in full swing.
During the inauguration, Mr. Ricardo P. Enriquez, the school's Director, stated, "Science and technology are propelling us into a future where the impossible becomes achievable, the unimaginable becomes tangible, and the extraordinary becomes the new ordinary." He also stated that investing in Science and technology education is the key to ensuring a sustainable and innovative future.
