MESSAGE
Un sincero y caliente felicitacion a todos!

Congratulations to the school officials, teachers, parents, graduates, and completers of

School Year 2021-2022!

Today we celebrate the successes and achievements of Batch 2021-2022 graduates and
completers in the End-of-School-Year rites with the theme “K to 12 Graduates: Pursuing
Dreams and Fostering Resilience in the Face of Adversity. ” Hard work, perseverance, and
resilience amidst the most challenging times of the global pandemic have brought us to this
proud moment.

As DepEd Secretary Briones in her message stressed, “education is a shared responsibility. It

is a primary tool to success.” The school year 2021-2022 was a year of extraordinary feat
where our learners, parents, schools, community, and stakeholders worked together for quality
learning to continue with our basic education learning continuity plan.

As this school year ends, we look back and take pride that despite all the odds, we have
reached this far; a significant milestone has been marked in the journey to achieve your full
potential and purpose. We have arrived. It is graduation day!

My dear graduates and completers, expect more challenges ahead. This is not the end of the
road. However, stay focused and remember that the pandemic has tested you; you have
persevered and risen above it. So go, move forward with confidence. In this journey, you are
not alone. We are with you throughout the way.

To our parents, stakeholders, and partners, accept our sincerest gratitude. You have been our
effective and efficient partners in implementing our blended modular distance learning. Your
untiring support and cooperation reflect our earnest goals of providing quality education for
a better, brighter future for the Filipino people; aptly, we say, “Sulong Edukalidad: Para sa
bata, para sa bayan.”

Let us continue to build a nation of future leaders and competent citizens. Together, we
uphold the credo, “No-hay cosa imposible, cree, junto-junto puede.”
