Roylan T. Dela Cruz is Assistant Principal II, City of Balanga National High School – Senior High School “Happiness is contentment,” my personal motto in life that keeps me going. I’m happy and contented with what I have today. All were the fruit of my labor, counting what I have. I am Mr. ROYLAN T. DELA CRUZ, born on the 19th day of September 1976 in Abucay, Bataan where I spent my childhood. Presently, I’m a Head Teacher of the subject Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (EsP) (Values Education way back) at City of Balanga National High School, City of Balanga, Bataan. Presently, I’m residing at Mt. Samat Drive, Diwa, Pilar, Bataan. Before I became a teacher, I went into the rough road of my life. I had to surface lots of life’s hindrances. First, I’m a person with disability. I’m crippled. I suffer polio. I cannot walk without a cane, and it is almost difficult for me to move around. But even if I’m crippled, I don’t feel self-pity this is because of my family support, especially my grandmother who taught me to accept myself as normal as other children and treated me the same treatment as the people without disability. Words from my grandmother and my mother becomes my armor to have a positive life disposition. They taught me to have the courage to face whatever challenges in life I may face. My childhood memory is very happy. I did not experience to be bullied by my peers, instead, I’m the one who bullied them. I pursued my College Education even if I didn’t have any assurance that I can finish it. I took an entrance exam at Bataan Peninsula State University Balanga Campus (Bataan Colleges then) where I took up Bachelor of Secondary Education. They didn’t accept me right away because I’m crippled. They accepted me as provisional student because of my persistence. Year 2006 I first practice my teaching profession at Bataan National High School as Job Order Teacher until I became a Contractual Teacher on November 2006. June 10, 2008, I became permanent teacher and got the Teacher III item last March 26, 2012. February 15, 2016, I gained the promotion as Head Teacher I at City of Balanga National High School (COBNHS). 2017, I passed the National Qualifying Examination for School Heads (NQUESH) and in 2018, I was promoted as an Assistant Principal II. During this period, I earned several certificates of commendation such as Certificate of Commendation” at Baguio City for Honesty, Certificate of Commendation from Provincial Tourism Office for my contribution as Cultural Mapper, Gawad Arellano as Outstanding Teacher at Bataan National High School and Dakilang Guro from City Division of Balanga and Provincial Governor of Bataan. In 2018, I won 2nd Place for Regional Research Congress for my Action Research entitled “Effects of Facebook as an Interactive Application Participation Mode (IPM) in Learning Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (Values Education).” Despite of my sad and painful experience in life, I remained positive. There have been numerous blessings that helped me to become who I am today. God still showed me his mercy and grace. A quotation said, If there is a will, there is a way. Prayers with hard work on what you desire, is a sure victory. It is in God’s right time
