Congratulations for reaching another meaningful milestone in your lives as you unlock another stage that entails greater responsibilities and challenges vital to your academic growth.

I was once a student like you who appreciated the value of education. Beyond learning, it is in this stage that you meet strangers who eventually become friends and family.

Remember that your graduation is not only a celebration of your academic achievement, but also a testament to your dedication and to your parents’ unconditional love, hard work, and sacrifices.

This milestone is only the beginning of greater opportunities.

Regardless of what lies ahead, the Provincial Government of Davao de Oro will always place a high premium on education and will relentlessly support teachers, students, and the people behind our various learning institutions in the province.

You are the hopes of tomorrow, and this simply means that you are the future instruments in sustaining and further advancing the kaLAMBOan that we are working hard to build today.

Let this day serve as a reminder that your potential is limitless. The future of Davao de Oro is brighter because of young individuals like you.

To all the graduates of S.Y. 2025-2026, may your dreams guide you, your values ground you, and your passion lead you to success.

Padayon ug padayon sa paglambo.

With pride and best wishes,
Governor Raul G. Mabanglo
Province of Davao de Oro
