I saw them first during last year Sinulog Night where the DepEd is the host. Its quite impressive that this teachers (in various major) are so talented in playing musical instruments. This team are the DepEd's entertainers during sports and cultural festival.
MIND you, the teachers' band is performing every Friday night at the Kayamocats restobar somewhere in the Cebu city north reclamation area. Its repertoire gets updated from time to time and the singers and musicians could play all types of music genre, according to their band leader Slavsky Ybañez who is actually the division music coordinator.
The band members are vocalists Paul Calbang, Nicolas Acaso, Phoebe Sasuman, Cecile Agbay, Joan Cabigas and Monalisa Opsima, guitarists Edison de la Pena and Chiqui Libradilla, bass guitarist Ramon Velos, drummer Nilo Mamac, keyboardists Rodel Genon and Felipe Baga and percussionist Arnie Sabellano. Yes, the teachers' band also accepts invitations and other public functions. I wish the teachers' band good luck in its future engagements.
O, it is not true that 14 public school teachers coming from different districts all over Cebu are resigning en masse to become full-time entertainers. But it is true that these mentors are performing in a band without sacrificing their noble duty of molding the minds of the studentry. To me, the formation of the Department of Education Cebu Teachers' Band should be warmly welcomed by everybody as it affords its talented members the chance to showcase the other side of their persona.

Hi Nice Blog .The best means of accomplishing this is by creating a resource out of your sidebar links seo school. If not you might just be giving links to the competition. However if you create a series of links that are useful to your audience. The reader will be more likely to view your blog as a resource rather than a doorway to somewhere else.
