From the heart of a teacher, THANK YOU DepEd! 🙏

Thank you for continuously finding ways to support us, to uplift us, and to remind us that our work matters.
Thank you for investing not just in tools and resources, but in the people behind every classroom — the teachers.

Because of DepEd’s care and support, we are more equipped, more encouraged, and more inspired to serve our learners with excellence.
Every effort you extend to us becomes part of every lesson we deliver, every child we guide, and every future we help build.

As Colossians 3:23 reminds us:
_"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord..."_
And with your support, DepEd, we can do just that — with clearer voices, stronger hearts, and renewed passion.

Maraming salamat po, DepEd!
For believing in teachers. For amplifying our mission. For serving the Filipino learners through us. 💙

Thank You Lord🙌🫶♥️

The fiesta spirit is in the air and home is calling! 🏠✨

In partnership with the LGU of Barangay Candau-ay, we joyfully invite ALL CANDESians to celebrate with us during the Candau-ay Fiesta 2026!

This year’s theme: "BULAK SA KAHIUSAHAN, BUNGA SA KALAMBOAN"
🌸 Bulak sa Kahiusahan - Like flowers, we bloom beautifully when we are united.
🌱 Bunga sa Kalamboan - And from that unity comes the fruit of progress for our barangay and for all of us.

That’s why our ALUMNI HOMECOMING is so special.
We are the bulak and bunga of CANDES. We grew here, we learned here, and now we come back to give back and reconnect.
When we gather as one CANDES family, we show the true meaning of unity and how it leads to growth, not just for our school, but for our whole community.

🗓 August 16, 2026
📍 Candau-ay Multipurpose Gym
⏰ 3:00 PM - Grand Parade

From Batch 1960s to Batch 2025 — ALL ARE WELCOME!
Dali na, classmates! Teachers! Friends! Let’s come home, celebrate our roots, and continue to make CANDES proud.
Because when CANDESians unite, we truly become the bulak sa kahiusahan and bunga sa kalamboan. 🎓🎊

Kita-kits ta, CANDESians! Your CANDES family is waiting for you!
