On February 18, 2026, Christ the King College (CKC) commenced the festivities by recognizing its Dean’s Listers. The ceremony honored those who demonstrated exceptional academic rigor, dedication, and perseverance. As applause echoed throughout the hall, it served as more than just a reward for high marks—it was an inspiration for every student to strive for their own version of success.

The energy shifted from formal to festive as “THE YEAR-END SPOTLIGHT (Honors, Handover, & Hangout)” officially took center stage. The celebration kicked off with interactive games that sparked spirited competition. Students from various programs joined forces, trading their academic focus for teamwork and laughter, proving that the CKC community plays just as hard as it works.

A pivotal moment followed with the formal turnover ceremony of the CKC Supreme Student Council (CKCSSC). In a symbolic passing of the torch, outgoing officers entrusted their responsibilities to the newly elected leaders. This transition marked a fresh chapter of service, ensuring the student body remains in capable, committed hands.

The spotlight then turned to the departmental achievements and school clubs. A major highlight was the presentation of the prestigious 2026 DSA EXEMPLAR AWARDS—Discernment, Standards, Action. These awards recognized the “best of the best,” honoring those whose contributions went beyond the classroom to impact the very fabric of the college culture.

Beyond the high fashion and formal ceremonies, “THE YEAR-END SPOTLIGHT (Honors, Handover, & Hangout)” served as a powerful reflection of the vibrant spirit defining Christ the King College. It was a day where academic brilliance met visionary leadership, proving that the heart of the CKC community lies in its ability to celebrate one another’s victories.

As the curtains close on this academic chapter, we extend our warmest congratulations to the newly elected officers. May you lead with integrity, wisdom, and an unwavering commitment to your peers. We look forward to seeing you uphold the mission of Christ the King College, guiding the student body toward a future of collective growth and lasting unity.
