A 46-year-old mom graduates senior high school – a feat proving that age is not a hindrance for dream fulfillment.
The graduation of a 46-year-old mother from Senior High School in a school in Isabela has inspired not only her classmates and batchmates but also people on social media.
In a tribute Facebook post by teacher Mark Jhon Prestoza, he praised Catherine Cornelio of Quirino National High School as a role model for everyone, highlighting how she showed that the pursuit of one’s dreams never stops, regardless of age or life circumstances.
Cornelio completed the academic course in Accountancy, Business, and Management (ABM) despite being a mother in Cullabo Del Sur, Burgos, Isabela. According to Cornelio, age is not a barrier to fulfilling one’s dreams for oneself and one’s family.
“Catherine: A Model for Dream Fulfillment,” Prestoza said.
“Catherine Cornelio, a 46-year-old graduated from Quirino National High School, proves age doesn’t stop dreams. She finished the academic track in Accountancy, Business, and Management (ABM)strand despite being a mother in Cullabo Del Sur, Burgos, Isabela.”
“‘Age doesn’t hinder building dreams for yourself and family,’ says Catherine. With her determination, she proved keeping up with younger students is possible. Her story inspires the community, especially women wanting to continue their education.”
“Catherine’s success is thanks to her teachers at Quirino National High School. She is grateful for their guidance and support.”
“Catherine is a role model and inspiration, reminding us that dreams are achievable with determination and effort.”
“Congratulations Ate Catherine Cornelio,” the educator said.
Prestoza was asked about Cornelio’s next plans now that she has completed Senior High School.
“Hindi pa niya alam ang plano niya, kapag matapos niya ang SHS ay itutuloy niya ang caregiving para makapag-abroad,” he said.
