DepED Regional Director's Message to the Graduates of 2011
MESSAGE
With your elementary graduation, you have proven that you work hard and care for your education. Of course, you have to thank your families, teachers, and mentors who have helped you along the way.
The theme for this year’s Graduation Rites, “The Graduate: A Partner Towards Transformational Society, An Answer To Societal Change” simply tells us that you are the hope and future of this country. As our very own 2009 CNN Hero of the Year, Efren Pinaflorida, would say, “You are the change that you dream and I am the change that I dream. Collectively, we are the change that this world needs to be.”
Remember, this is only the beginning of a long journey of learning to prepare you for life’s challenges. Continue to do your best in high school and in everything you aspire for in life. May your knowledge, values, skills and talent acquired through education help us grow and prosper as a nation.
Congratulation and my best wishes for a bright and happy future.
LUZ S. ALMEDA, Ph.D., CESO III
