Oliveria leads FEBHS presence at 2026 Regional Learners’ Convergence
BIL-ISAN, PANGLAO, BOHOL — Schyler Niño Van Oliveria, a learner of Felix E. Bompat High School (FEBHS) and a dedicated Boy Scout, represented Bohol at the 2026 Regional Learners’ Convergence (R7LC) held on September 2–4 in Alcoy, Cebu, joining fellow youth leaders in a three-day celebration of leadership, empowerment, creativity, and youth participation.
Oliveria was among the 15 selected learner leaders who formed the Bohol delegation, accompanied by three teacher-advisers and two Division Youth Formation Coordinators. The delegation brought together representatives from various youth organizations and advocacies, including DFSSLG, DFSELG, DRRM, Mental Health, Barkada Kontra Bisyo, YES-O, Sports, Anti-Bullying, GSP, and BSP.
Before their journey to Cebu, the delegates gathered in Tagbilaran on September 1 and received words of encouragement from Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Fay C. Luarez. Assistant Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Eduardo A. Ompad also joined and supported the delegation on the first day of the convergence.
The Bohol delegation’s enthusiasm and teamwork were also recognized through two awards: 1st Place in Best in Yells and 2nd Place in Best Project Pitch.
Returning home with new experiences, friendships, and lessons, Oliveria brings with him a renewed commitment to lead, empower, and inspire others in his school and community. For Oliveria, the convergence affirmed that leadership is not simply about holding a position or wearing a uniform. It is about finding the courage to step forward, raise one’s voice, and inspire others to act.
The successful participation of the delegation was made possible through the support of their teacher-advisers Mr. Jaype Palma, Ms. Haziel Ahavti Eitch, and Ms. Maya Arcelle Ruiz Gabaisen; Division Youth Formation Coordinator Ms. Aian Dolauta; school heads; and SDO-Bohol administrative heads, SGOD Chief Dr. Wilfreda O. Flor, OIC-ASDS Dr. Neil Michael G. Olaivar, ASDS Dr. Eduardo A. Ompad, and SDS Dr. Fay C. Luarez.
