🇵🇭 REMEMBERING NINOY AQUINO | AUGUST 21, 2026

On Ninoy Aquino Day, we remember a Filipino whose life reflected courage, conviction, and love for the country.

Honoring his legacy does not always mean doing something extraordinary. It can begin in the simple choices we make every day: having the courage to speak the truth, standing up for what is right, respecting others, taking studies seriously, and using knowledge and talents to help others.

As Filipinos, may we learn that loving our country begins with becoming responsible, honest, courageous, and compassionate individuals— willing to make a difference in our school, our community, and someday, our nation.

Let us remember Ninoy not only by looking back at his life, but by carrying forward the values he stood for. 🇵🇭

Be courageous. Be responsible. Be a Filipino who makes a difference.

Celebrating Lucena City Charter Day! 🇵🇭❤️

Today, August 20, we commemorate the historic granting of Lucena City’s Charter through Republic Act No. 3271 on August 20, 1961—a milestone that marked a new chapter in the city’s journey of growth, governance, and progress. May we continue to honor Lucena’s rich history, celebrate the unity of its people, and work together toward a brighter future for our beloved city. One City. One People. One Future.
