The Araw ng Kagitingan celebration serves as a powerful reminder of the nation's gratitude for the heroic sacrifices made by its soldiers. This day is marked with deep respect as Filipinos gather at the Mt. Samat National Shrine in Bataan to pay tribute to those who bravely fought against Japanese forces.

This event serves as an important way to preserve our rich historical memory, acting as a beacon of federal unity that brings diverse communities together. It inspires future generations to deeply reflect on the enduring values of courage and resilience, instilling in them a sense of pride and a commitment to honor the struggles and triumphs of those who came before us.

Thanks to the guidance of the School Youth Formation Coordinator and the Supreme Secondary Learner Government Adviser Sir. Jeric Capuchino and the unwavering support of The Catalysts.

It was more than just a campaign event—it was a platform for unveiling the true intentions of the student candidates. Through their insightful questions and relentless pursuit of honesty, The Catalysts ensured that the voices of the student body were heard, and the candidates’ real plans were brought to light.

Thanks to their dedication, the truth was laid bare for all to see. It's a reminder that the integrity of an election lies not just in the votes, but in the transparency and accountability we demand from those who seek to lead us.

The Miting de Avance proved that true leadership is built on transparency, accountability, and the unwavering pursuit of truth.
