Naging masagana ang pagdiriwang ng Buwan Ng Wika sa Sta. Teresita National High School, ngayong Agosto 30, 2024. Sa naturing na pagdiriwang, naipakita ang pagmamahal at pagpapahalaga sa ating wika, Filipino.

"Filipino: Wikang Mapagpalaya",
ay ang tema para sa buwan ng wika sa taong ito. Wika ang naging daan sa ating kalayaan. Ito rin ay simbolo ng ating pagkakakilanlan. Ngunit sa henerasyon ngayon na ating kinabibilangan, ang wika natin at tila patuloy na pinapalitan.
Kaya't mas naging espesyal ang pagdiriwang ng buwan ng wika, sapagkat ito ay isang araw upang maipakita natin ang ating pagmamahal at pagtangkilik sa ating wikang mapagpalaya.

Naisabuhay ang temang ito, sa mga pagtatanghal na ipinakita ng mga estudyante. Tiyak na dugo't pawis ang inilaan ng mga estudyante at mga g**o para sa mga aktong kanilang ipinakita.
Mula sa ika-7 baitang hanggang sa ika-12, sila ay nagpakita ng talento na talagang nakakapag alab ng pusong Pilipino

Isang pagpupugay para sa mga nagwagi sa araw na ito! Pati na rin sa mga hindi pinalad! Sana'y nabawi ang bawat hirap ng preparasiyon para sa araw na ito.

Hindi lamang ang mga aktong ganito, ang paraan upang maipakita natin ang ating pagmamahal sa ating wika. Sa simpleng paggamit, at pagaral nito ay sapat na, upang maisabuhay natin ang wikang ating ipinaglaban. Ang ating wikang nagpalaya.
