Congratulations to our Robotics Elite Team representatives for securing 3rd place in the High School Team Awards at the Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS) Arduino Contest held online last August 2, 2025, where participants submitted their final outputs through the official SSCS Arduino Contest website. Competing against participants from 23 countries, these young Lasallians demonstrated exceptional ingenuity and technical skill, focusing their innovation on the contest’s theme: Helping People with Disability.
The winning team was composed of:
- Bernardo Isaiah III Escalona (DLSZ 2028)
- Eddrich Costes (DLSZ 2028)
- Christian Joseph Jr. Malabanan (DLSZ 2029)
The SSCS Arduino Contest provided a global platform for students to apply their knowledge in electronics and programming through the creation of meaningful solutions. Utilizing the Arduino platform, the students developed a robust and reliable communication system that instantly transmits an alert from a patient’s bedside to the designated healthcare provider.

Guided by their mentor, Mr. Jeremiah Encluna, the students demonstrated dedication, teamwork, and a strong commitment to developing technology with purpose. The school is proud of this international feat and will remain steadfast in fostering a culture of innovation, technology, and social responsibility.
Kudos, young trailblazers! Animo La Salle!
