TURNOVER OF MANTLE OF RESPONSIBILITY
Guest
of Honor and speaker, Principal, Faculty Staff, PTA President and Officers,
Alumni, Parents, Juniors, and fellow Seniors, a pleasant good evening.
This
lovely evening of, 8th of February in the year 2014 will be one of
the most memorable events of our life, the integral part of our high school
experiences – the Junior-Senior Prom.
In
four years of stay in our beloved Alma Mater, the Sta. Catalina
Academy, our student life
here will soon come to an end. This is the realization that we are leaving high
school in the days to come. We, Seniors, will take an important step into a new
stage of our life where greater challenge lies ahead.
Juniors,
you are the inheritors of the strong and proud legacy of our school. Being the
next batch of Seniors, you will continue the cycle of high school life. On your
shoulders lies the responsibility of being the role model where underclassmen
will look upon to you as their big brothers and sisters. You will continue our
unfinished tasks as we sail to discover new world. Juniors, strive to hone your
skills and traits of being the leader and role model of the younger students of
our school.
Respect
and utilized also the wisdom that you have learned from us, from our experiences
and successes because we have come before you and had crossed this difficult
stage of being the Seniors.
Fellow
Seniors, invested me with responsibilities as being the class leader. At this
juncture, it is my honor and privilege to pass on to you, Juniors, the mantle
of responsibilities. We have done our part and it is now the time to
relinquished it on to you.
Each
mantle bears the weight of task. Put it on, and carry its weight, and go on
with the journey. We knew that you are willing and able to continue the cycle
of work that we are going to left behind.
This
turning over of mantle does not mean that we turned our back toward the school.
It only marks the beginning of our greater responsibility toward our Alma Mater
as well as the community.
We
have a vision for our school -- a vision of greatness. I exhort you, all of
you, Juniors to nurture this vision as I passed this mantle of responsibilities
on to you. May each and every one of you will fulfill your roles and
commitments with honor, passion and pride.
Thank
You.
