SEN. Bong Go, a member of the Senate Committee on Basic Education, underscored the pivotal role of school principals in the educational ecosystem. He said principals were the guiding lights of their schools, leading teachers and the entire school community toward excellence.

'To all the principals here, I salute your unwavering effort and dedication. You are the true leaders of our schools, and despite the challenges and trials, you continue to ensure the delivery of quality education for our youth wholeheartedly. You serve as the foundation of our educational institutions, and your leadership inspires us all.'
