Nakikiisa ang Gaddani National High School sa paggunita at pagpupugay sa kagitingan ng mga Pilipinong nag-alay ng kanilang buhay at patuloy na nagsusulong ng kalayaan, pagkakaisa, at kaunlaran ng ating bansa. Nawa’y magsilbi silang inspirasyon upang patuloy nating pahalagahan at ipagtanggol ang kalayaan na kanilang ipinaglaban para sa sambayanang Pilipino.
