She stated that “there’s no one happier here than I am, to see a dream finally come true… Seeing the students in their uniforms, I am so happy na pwede palang mangarap at magbunga.” Governor Yap also reminded the students to take care of their purpose, the gift of education that is endowed to them by their parents and by the government.
Also present in the momentous activity are UP Manila Chancellor Dr. Michael L. Tee, DILG Tarlac Provincial Director Armi V. Bactad, CESO V representing DILG Region III Director Atty. Anthony C. Nuyda, CESO III, DMO V Maria Noel B. Lim of PDOHO Tarlac representing DOH Director Dr. Corazon I. Flores, Tarlac Board Member Jude Joseph David, Vice Mayor Venus Tomas of the Municipality of Mayantoc, Vice Mayor Atty. Benjamin Tesoro of the Municipality of San Manuel, Vice Mayor Nathaniel Tan of the Municipality of Santa Ignacia, Councilor Michael Villa Agustin of the Municipality of Victoria, and representatives from UP Manila and the Provincial Government of Tarlac.
In the glow of candlelight and the spirit of commitment, the 3rd Founding Anniversary, Commitment Building, and Candle Lighting Ceremony of the UP Manila - School of Health Sciences Tarlac Campus illuminated not just a moment, but a pathway towards a brighter future for the community. With the convergence of UP Manila, the Provincial Government of Tarlac, and key stakeholders, dreams took flight as deserving scholars were empowered to pursue their aspirations in safeguarding their dreams. As the event concluded, it marked not only a celebration of achievement but a rallying call for collective action towards building healthier, more vibrant communities for generations to come.
