Marian Academy is the oldest school in Kaduhatan City, in its 58th year of existence. Run by the Sisters of St. Therese, it has gained prestige for quality education in the place. With the coming of the 60s however, the new schools entered the city and have strongly established themselves academically, so that students flocked to these schools. As a consequence, enrollment in Marian High School dropped to almost half in the 70s. Teachers have been pirated and offered higher salaries, thus the slow denudation of talented faculty. Nevertheless, a number of old teachers struggle it out, through thick and thin in the school out of loyalty and good companionship. But the problem is, every year, theres a new principal, new faces, new system, new policies, new rules, new regulations. New everything.
