A momentous celebration of hope, resilience, and achievement marked the Alternative Learning System (ALS) Graduation and Moving-Up Ceremony, held on July 22, 2026, at the Tubod Cultural Gymnasium. The event brought together the ALS districts of Bacolod, Baroy, Kolambugan, Magsaysay, Maigo, Munai, Tangcal, Tubod, and Tangcal, celebrating the remarkable accomplishments of our ALS learners. Bacolod district completers are 3 from the Elementary Graduates and 45 Junior High School Completers who successfully completed their ALS journey.
This milestone stands as a testament to the unwavering dedication of ALS teachers who tirelessly guided, encouraged, and inspired every learner to overcome challenges and pursue their dreams. The success of this celebration was also made possible through the steadfast support of the Schools Division Office of Lanao del Norte headed by our Division Superintendent, sir Edwin R. Maribojoc, CESO V, the invaluable partnership of our Local Government Units, and the commitment of community stakeholders whose collective efforts continue to strengthen the ALS program and create meaningful learning opportunities for out-of-school youth and adult learners.
Above all, this achievement reflects the determination, perseverance, and courage of every ALS learner who chose to continue their education despite life's obstacles. Their stories remind us that success is not measured by the path we take but by the determination to keep moving forward. Each graduate and completer embodies the true spirit of lifelong learning and serves as an inspiration to others who aspire to transform their lives through education.
As we celebrate this significant milestone, let us remember that education remains the most powerful tool for personal growth, empowerment, and nation-building. The Alternative Learning System continues to prove that learning knows no age, circumstance, or limitation. It is more than an alternative—it is a pathway to success, opening doors to brighter opportunities, meaningful careers, and a better future for every Filipino learner.
Congratulations to the ALS Class of 2026! May your achievements today become the foundation of even greater successes tomorrow. Continue to dream, persevere, and inspire others through the transformative power of education.
