Rebecca and Adam Lavictoria, 55 and 51 years old, are two of the 11 students of this year's Open Highschool Progam of Bugo National High School in Cagayan De Oro who graduated on Friday, March 27, 2015. The said program was created for the out-of-school youths and over aged individuals.
The pedicab driver, Adam, was very proud that they were able to finally receive their long over due diplomas. Rebecca, on the other hand, said that she chose to go back to school because she strongly believes that education is still the best key to success.
Mr. and Mrs. Lavictoria received an "Award of Distinction" for their dedication in getting through with the program successfully. Mrs. Lavictoria is hoping to become a lawyer in the near future while Mr. Lavictoria wants to be an electrician.
This couple's story is surely an inspiration for everybody that it's never too late to pursue one's dreams. At their 50's their able to do it, therefore, there should be nothing that can hold us back from our dreams too.
