Forty volunteered pupils, representing grades one to six of the school had successfully completed the six Saturdays Mathematics Program for regular pupils and for talented ones.

As per DepEd Advisory No. 275, s. 2014, dated July 1, 2014, this program is designed to provide the pupils the opportunity to explore Mathematics without the threat of tests, to review the materials covered last school year, and to prepare the Grade 6 pupils for entrance examinations for the first year high school.

"I Am Here!" - The Clarion

Making things "loud and clear" purports the essence of what a clarion is. This is what the school named its school paper, The Clarion as  the official school paper of Balabag Elementary School. It came out in her maiden issue recently covering the period of June and July school activities.

Mr. Mike Pabalate, Grade VI - Dahlia class adviser was assigned as the school paper adviser in an organizational meeting conducted by the new principal, Mr. Gilbor I. Camporazo before the formal opening of classes in June 2014.

The making of Balabag Elementary School Logo

When the new school principal, Gilbor Camporazo who used Gil Camporazo for his pen name in his blog, officially assumed his office on May 5, 2014, he met with his 16 teachers and discussed with them the present status of the school, its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats on how to utilize them appropriately in accomplishing the school's vision and mission.

And the school logo was one of the agenda taken up since the school was founded with no logo was adopted for school identity and personality. Sir Mike Pabalate, Class Dahlia section adviser of Grade IV, therefore, was tasked to draft a logo and at the same was appointed as the adviser of school paper.

A week later a logo was created and was drawn by the youngest son, Gilbor Camporazo, Jr., of the school principal.
