According to CAESC (2007) and Zeiger (2010), the most essential learning time of the day for
the students lies in the morning, specifically between 8:00 to 9:30 AM. It is because the
students are most mindful and observant at this time of the day. It is also the reason why the
most important lessons and subject matters are discussed during this time. So when students
are late or are not present during this time of the day, they, in effect, miss out most of the
important lessons to be noted and learned.

One of the most recurring and the most “frustrating problem” that the schools are having with
their students nowadays is tardiness (Sprick and Daniels, 2007). It creates problems, not just to
the students but also to the teachers (Cowan Avenue Elementary School Community, 2007,
para 1). Cowan Crier, the official School Publication of CAESC, also states that while having
“occasional tardy” isn’t a big deal, unfailing tardiness is and it gives students problems including
being ill-prepared for the job market. According to the results of the study of the U.S.
Department of Education on “truancy”, which is related to tardiness, being present and on time
in going to school are big factors on the “success and behavior” of the students (Zeiger, 2010,
para 1). Thus, it is a lot important to value time and practice being on time while being a
student.

Each watch has a story about Filipino history that shaped what the country is today – a
story that we, as Filipinos, can take pride in. Plaridel, Salvador, and Mariano are Ibarra Watches
collections that have an inspiring and interesting background.

The saying goes: “behind every successful man is a woman.” This is why Ibarra Watches
has finally launched a line for women called Rivera and when paired with their classic Rizal
watches, it also becomes their first collection for couples.
 The Rivera Collection is inspired by Leonor Rivera, a woman known to be one of Jose
Rizal’s lovers. Some may question her relevance based on our textbooks, but accounts reveal that
Rivera was more to Rizal than just that. This discovery is what Ibarra Watches seeks to share
with their latest collection. To bring justice to this, the Rivera was released to represent the
modern Filipina. As special as she was to our national hero, so will this collection be. Quality
timepieces will be produced in seven different color patterns to bring diversity and equal
representation to the male-dominated watch market. They will come with a 29mm case housing a
Quartz movement.

On the other hand, the new Rizal model will come with an automatic movement. Similar
to Ibarra’s earlier automatic watches, the new Rizal model will house a Miyota movement, which
is also used by Japanese watchmakers such as Citizen. The watch features a flat sapphire crystal,
a steel bracelet, and a fluted bezel, all meant to leave a sparkle on the wrist of the wearer. The
date window display also adds functionality to the timepiece.

Individually, the Rizal and the Rivera each has their own story to tell. Together, they
prove to be even more stunningly stylish by exhibiting romance and sophistication.

Time management and timekeeping are not the only factors that affect punctuality;
boredom can be yet another reason for students to arrive late to class (Bilocura & Guia, 2012). In
a study by Jay Arnel D. Bilocura and Lord Anjelo T. Guia (2012), it was concluded that although
most of the tardy students were late because they did not wake up early.(
