“Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing but a woman who fears the Lord shall be praised…”

In line with the theme, SCC aims not only to hone students’ skills and abilities in sports, LitMus (Literary and Musical Contest) and dance competitions but also to promote confidence within the students who are said to be possessing the charm, beauty and wit. It has been an annual practice of the school to look for the deserving pair to be crowned Mr. & Ms. SCC, but unlike other institutions who does the same, SCC still limits and even encourages the participants to foster the wholesome image of the school.
The search commenced with a pictorial at the pool with the contestants swim wear and at the multi-purpose building with their casual attire. There were seven pairs who joined the search; four pairs from the secondary level (from freshmen to senior) and three pairs from the college (BARE, COED, 4-in-1). It was on the third night of the Intramurals (September 26, 2007) when the impressive talent night happened. Contestants showcased their diverse talents in singing, dancing and acting. The judges and the audience were amazed with their performance but the excellent performance of the sophomores outshone them all.
The moment had come, last night of the Intramurals, the Coronation night and giving of awards for the deserving ones took place at the multi-purpose building. Excitement was transparently seen on the faces of the audience and from the contestants. The pageant was hosted by the dynamic Governor of the BARE Department, Philip Brent M. Cariaga and by Ms. Mantua from the faculty. The judging was on the back to zero basis and contestants were judged by, of course, beauty and intellect. The contestants were very nervous, yet eager to know the result handed by the judges. Ms. Jennelyn Timosa, an HRM student and Mr. Gilbert Pocon, a Sophie, grabbed many awards and even the crown for Mr. and Ms. SCC. Despite the given result, the other contestants were sport enough to greet the new Mr. & Ms SCC with a handshake. The commendable conquest of Mr. & Ms. SCC 2007 cheered the audience more with their reigning walk. The pageant was really a remarkable moment.
