The Life of Lauderdale

I grew up in a small community in

Dangcagan, which is also impoverished. My
family struggled to make ends meet, at
madalas kaming walang sapat na
pangangailangan sa loob ng ilang araw.
However,sa kabila ng mga balakid sa harap
ko at sa aking pamilya, we have a strong
determination to overcome poverty through
education. Beyond my efforts, every step I
take towards Dangcagan National High
School is a step towards creating a better
future for myself and my family.

Kyle Christian Perseverance

I came from a family of farmers who barely

managed to meet their daily needs. Since I
was young, I accompanied my parents in
farming, helping to provide food on the
table. Sa kabila ng pisikal na paghihirap at
mga suliranin sa pinansyal, I saw education
as the key to escaping poverty. I took his
studies at Dangcagan National High School
seriously, filled with determination to break
the cycle of poverty that my family has long
suffered from.

My family comes from a distant province,

hoping to find better opportunities in
Dangcagan. However, I discovered the harsh
reality of poverty and the difficulty of
finding stable employment. I am Guil, with a
dream of becoming a skilled engineer,
nakita ang edukasyon bilang tanging
pagkakataon ko upang makatakas sa hawak
ng kahirapan. Ipinagtuunan ko ng buong
dedikasyon ang aking pag-aaral in
Dangcagan National High School,
determined to create a better life for my
family and myself.

Kert Francis Strength

To be honest, when I was just a child, I

learned to live without assistance from
adults. My family faced hunger, abuse, and
constant hardships every day. Sa kabila ng
mahirap na sitwasyon, laging nagliliwanag
ang matatag kong espiritu. I found
happiness within the walls of Dangcagan
National High School, where teachers and
friends became my temporary family. I
desire a brighter future because I believe
that education alone can free us from the
grip of poverty.

encountered inside and outside school.
Through unity, we realized that we are not
alone in our struggles, and through it, we
can overcome any hardship.
