Muling nagtipon ang buong pamilya ng Rawis National High School sa bakuran ng paaralan kaninang umaga, Agosto 10, para sa ikalawang seremonya ng pagtataas ng watawat ngayong buwan. Naging makabuluhan ang seremonya sapagkat nagsilbi rin itong pormal na pagbubukas ng pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa sa paaralan.

Pinangunahan ng mga mag-aaral ng Baitang 11 Corinthians ang programa sa pamamahala nina Jonathan Cerujano at Krissa Mae Salondaguit bilang mga tagapagdaloy.

Sinimulan ang seremonya sa taimtim na panalangin na pinangunahan ni Ma. Teressa De Asis, na sinundan ng pag-awit ng Pambansang Awit sa pangunguna ng g**ong tagapayo ng klase na si Gng. Marivic Cerbito. Isinagawa rin ang Panunumpa sa Watawat, sa pangunguna ni Mary Jane Singzon, at ang Panatang Makabayan, na pinangunahan naman ni Meriamel Giray.

Kasunod nito ang pagbigkas ng Pananaw ng Kagawaran ng Edukasyon na pinangunahan ni Yhazen Gryle Gadi, at ang Misyon at Pangunahing Pagpapahalaga ng DepEd na pinangunahan ni Rhianna Mae Alforque. Binasa naman ni Gng. Cerbito ang Pahayag sa Patakarang Pangkalidad ng DepEd, bago sinundan ng pag-awit ng Himno ng Dibisyon at Himno ng Bagong Pilipinas.

Lalong naging masigla ang seremonya nang sabay-sabay na nakiisa ang mga mag-aaral sa Galaw Pilipinas, sa pangunguna nina Deanne, Jhelianne, Meriamel, Mieca, Mark, Rhianna, Krissa, Aldrin, Romnick, at Mary Jane, pawang mga mag-aaral ng Baitang 11 Corinthians.

Binigyang-tuon sa programa ang pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika sa pamamagitan ng mensaheng ibinahagi ni Bb. Gisselle Castillo, g**o sa Filipino sa Senior High School. Tinalakay niya ang tema ng pagdiriwang ngayong taon, "Wikang Filipino at AI: Kasangkapan sa Pananaliksik at Tulay sa Yaman ng Impormasyon."

Sa kanyang mensahe, binigyang-diin ni Bb. Castillo na sa kabila ng mabilis na pag-unlad ng teknolohiya at artificial intelligence (AI), mahalagang manatiling buhay ang pagpapahalaga sa wikang Filipino bilang mahalagang bahagi ng pagkakakilanlan ng bawat Pilipino.

“Ang Wikang Filipino ang nananatiling puso ng ating pagkakakilanlan bilang mga Pilipino,” ani Bb. Castillo.

Binigyang-diin din niya na hindi dapat maging hadlang ang teknolohiya sa pagmamahal sa sariling wika. Sa halip, maaari itong maging kasangkapan upang higit na mapalawak ang kaalaman at mapayaman ang paggamit ng wika.

Hinikayat din niya ang mga mag-aaral na gamitin ang AI nang may integridad, pananagutan, at wastong pagpapahalaga sa katotohanan.

"Ang AI ay hindi kapalit ng ating talino, pagkamalikhain, at pagpapahalaga sa katotohanan," dagdag niya.

Bilang pagtatapos ng programa, nagbigay si Dr. Emma Merino, punong-g**o ng RNHS, ng mahahalagang paalala at anunsyo sa buong paaralan. Muli rin niyang hinikayat ang mga g**o at mag-aaral na patuloy na pahalagahan at gamitin ang wikang Filipino bilang mahalagang bahagi ng pambansang pagkakakilanlan.

Matapos ang seremonya, nagkaroon ng larawang pangkat ang mga g**ong nakasuot ng tradisyunal na kasuotang Pilipino sa bakuran ng paaralan. Sa payak na paraan, ipinakita ng mga g**o ang kanilang pakikiisa sa pagdiriwang at pagpapahalaga sa wika, kultura, at pambansang pagkakakilanlan.

Sa pamamagitan ng mga gawaing tulad nito, muling ipinapaalala ng RNHS na ang pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika ay hindi lamang tungkol sa paggamit ng wikang Filipino, kundi tungkol din sa pagkilala sa ating ugat, pagpapahalaga sa ating kultura, at responsableng paggamit ng makabagong teknolohiya para sa pagkatuto.
