 The month of March is one of the most awaited months on the part of the pupils as well of

course those parents who for their first time ever see their son or daughter be one of those members of
the graduating class march during the processional. I am pretty sure that it’s been already a month-
long waiting and preparation. Needless to say…what to wear and what to do. Those feelings come into
reality this day…on this 29th day of March as we will witness the 47th Closing Exercises & Recognition

exemplary performance, none other than Mdm. Edwia P. Guiao to be followed right away by the
acceptance and confirmation of the graduates and message by no less than our Public Schools District
