It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved school founder and principal, Mr. Oscar Edra Hernandez.
Mr. Hernandez was not only a visionary educator but also a devoted son, loving husband, nurturing father, cherished grandfather, and a second father to his nieces and nephews, who found in him a source of strength and guidance after the loss of their own parents. His unwavering dedication to shaping the minds of countless learners, his legacy as a public servant, and his commitment as a socio-civic leader leave an indelible mark on the lives of many.
The Young Achievers’ School of Caloocan, Inc. (YASCI) community mourns the loss of a remarkable man whose life was a beacon of hope, wisdom, and inspiration. Mr. Hernandez’s relentless passion for education and selfless service will forever be etched in the hearts of those fortunate enough to know him.
As we grieve, let us also celebrate a life lived with purpose and love—a life worth emulating. We ask for your prayers and thoughts for his family during this difficult time.
Thank you, Sir Oscar, for being the cornerstone of YASCI and the embodiment of its values. Your legacy will continue to inspire us to educate minds and encourage achievements.
Rest in eternal peace, our dear mentor and leader.
