MESSAGE
Our most heartfelt congratulations to our completers and graduates of
School Year 2018-2019!
This celebration of success, whether moving-up or graduation, could not
have been realized without your diligence and devotion as learners of
the 21st century along with the loving guidance and unfaltering
support of your parents, teachers, and other school and community
stakeholders.
The cooperation and collaboration between and among these
education stakeholders including you, our learners, paves the way
for the attainment of quality, relevant, equitable, and engaging
education for all regardless of differences in culture, beliefs,
religion, and languages as reflected in this year’s theme, “Unity in
Diversity: Quality Education for All.” This makes today all the more a joyous and wonderful triumph that
shall remain in your hearts and minds as an enduring inspiration as you continue your journeys in life.
Your schools have provided the best avenue for you to build upon the concepts of diversity, rights, values
and perceptions that are interrelated opportunities for you to learn more to broaden your horizons and
become global citizens in this multi-dimensioned and culturally diverse world. Hence, let the learnings
and teachings your alma mater and community inscribed in you, be your anchor in facing new trials as
well as in reaching new victories.
May the teachings of the Almighty, as well, be your armor and guidance as you thread on. And like what
our forefathers have taught us - let your culture, values, and rights be your identity as you become part of
nation building and become positive contributors of your families and communities.
Again, kudos to you graduates and completers as well as your parents, teachers, school administrators
and community stakeholders. Congratulations! Mabuhay!
