Once he was a Catechist.
Another, a Principal.
One more, a seminarian in the next compound over.
They came, they taught, they served.
Then the seasons turned.
Now, some have returned.
Fr. Bobby. Fr. Joey.
Old roles, new missions.
Familiar footsteps on familiar ground.
But with deeper weight.
And more to carry.
Don Bosco Academy Bacolor steps into another chapter.
And with it comes a quiet kind of power—
the kind that remembers where it came from,
the kind that still knows the way forward.
Fr. Bobby is now School Rector.
Fr. Joey returns as Spiritual Moderator.
Joining them is Fr. John Joseph Aguila—
a new presence, a steady hand—
now Director and Economer.
But every welcome holds a parting.
Bro. Carmelo Martinez—Bro. Melo—
takes on a new assignment.
His time at DBA Bacolor left its mark.
Through programs, projects, and leadership,
he helped shape the school’s direction.
For a time, he quietly ran the school
while there was no Rector and Economer.
He built. He led. He inspired.
He leaves behind a legacy of growth.
And through every shift, every season,
one truth remains:
Luctor Et Emergo.
I struggle, I win.
That’s the heartbeat of Don Bosco Bacolor.
That’s the spirit they live.
That’s the story still unfolding.
