It is with great honor to be addressing you all today, to be one of the very people

that saw the journey of success of these fine students, to be their first teacher, to be their
protector, to be their parent. Nothing is more gratifying to see something you’ve been
nurturing from the very first moment they open their eyes to this world, to then seeing
them grow right here, right now.

Today, ____ young men and women have overcame a hurdle, and will continue to
run to reach the very finish line. But, as audiences we just see the straight path in which our
fine racers will trek, how many more step it will take for them to reach the end. But what we
don’t see is what’s behind all of it, the struggle that they’ve endured, the sacrifices that
they’ve made, and the choices that they’ve took, just for the very moment to have an
opportunity to reach the finish line.

And, of course like a trainer without their coaches, they’ll never be nowhere near
this road if it were not also for the struggles of the parents. That yes, it may be their race,
and that this is their journey, but we the parents, have also invested and have been
supporting this students from the very beginning. The blood, sweat, and tears that have
been dropped to fuel them to success. So give yourself a round of applause to the people
behind their success.

Although we are celebrating the culmination of the hard work of this students, I have
to commend all of us, to even reach it here. An event have shook the world, a crisis so
sudden we were caught in pure surprise. The pandemic has wrought havoc into our lives,
and especially it made things harder. The world as we know it, had been changed. But even
with this endeavor, we’ve come out stronger, adaptive, and resilient. Many were not so
lucky, so we have to honor them moving forward.

Lastly, of course, the students themselves. We thank you, for your diligence,
persistency and greatness. Know that you’re here not because of luck, by chance, or
coincidence. No, you are here because you’ve worked hard, the lessons you’ve learned, the
choices that you’ve made it was all for this moment. And though the path ahead will also be
quite a challenge, know that the journey that got you here now, have made it easier for you
to continue forward. As parting words from my years of engineering, the formula for a great
structure is their integrity and resiliency. Move forward whatever it takes, if you have
endured it before, it is more of a reason for you to continue on. Congratulations once again
Batch Students 2021-2022, you have certainly created cemented your name in this school’s
legacy.
