SCHOOLS Division Office of Cagayan Superintendent Reynante Caliguiran urged the graduates to continuously make a positive difference in their community as the end of the school year nears.

“I encourage you to continuously make a positive difference in your respective communities. As the torchbearers of the future of our country, you have so much potential and so much to give. Your spirit of innovation, vigor, and resilience is boundless, and it is this spirit that we need; this will propel our nation forward into a new Philippines,” Caliguiran said in his message to graduates and completers.

The SDO also congratulated the graduates and acknowledged their sacrifices to finish this school year.

“I know that to be in the place where you are right now, you struggled, you were challenged, but congratulations for you have emerged stronger, wiser, and now ready to embark on a new journey.”

He also told the students that this is the “beginning of a more noble and meaningful adventure.”

“We don’t know the things that await you in the next path that you are to take, but take heart for you are now equipped with the knowledge, skills, and values you need as you take the next step.”

“Thus, along the way, never forget the lessons you learned from your teachers, classmates, and friends that shaped you into the persons you are today,” he added.
