To shine like a precious gem and a bright star is an attitude, a philosophy,

a state of mind and an ultimate goal for victory, a journey and the
destination for greatness. The Oxford dictionary defines shine’ as giving out
a bright light, glowing. And so just like a gem and a star, Burgos National
High School do SHINES!!

And today, there is an air of unexplainable excitement of shining emotions,

thoughts, passion, superb performances and a celebration that none of us
could clearly define the exact the bright it gives but surely a festivity, and
thanksgiving of an institution founded to shine the brightest.

Hence, Stars don’t shine because they want to be seen; they shine because
they are stars, they are the leaners, the teachers, the parents, the
stakeholders, the department and everyone who shines like a star.

Ladies and gentlemen, As we should! Today is a day of grandeur and

majesty. So without further adue, I am Aisa G. Castro and I am John
Gilbert B. Paltao, your hosts saying Good afternoon! And welcome to this
