NSTP COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES 2026, MATAGUMPAY NA ISINAGAWA SA STI COLLEGE BATANGAS

ulat ni: Hazelle Anne B. Manabat | Writer

Matagumpay na ginanap ng STI College Batangas ang NSTP Commencement Exercises para sa taong panuruan 2025–2026 na may temang “Service, Leadership, and Commitment: The Heart of Nationhood” bilang pagkilala sa mga mag-aaral na matagumpay na nakumpleto ang National Service Training Program (NSTP).

Dinaluhan ang seremonya ng mga mag-aaral mula sa iba't ibang programa kabilang ang BSTM, BSIT, BSCM, BACOMM, BSA, BSAIS, BSBA, at BSCPE. Sinimulan ang programa sa pamamagitan ng processional, panalangin, pag-awit ng Pambansang Awit, at pambungad na pananalita ni Ms. Airiel Amor Mandigma, OIC-Academic Head.

Isa sa mga tampok ng programa ang talumpati ng panauhing pandangal na si Mr. Primo F. Añonuevo Jr., PhD, Konsehal ng San Isidro, Batangas. Sa kanyang mensahe, tinalakay niya ang lumalalang pagdepende ng maraming kabataan sa cellphone at social media. Binigyang-diin niya na bagama’t mahalagang bahagi na ng pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay ang teknolohiya, kinakailangan pa ring magkaroon ng wastong paggamit nito upang hindi maapektuhan ang pakikisalamuha, pag-aaral, at personal na pag-unlad ng mga kabataan.

Ayon kay Mr. Añonuevo, marami na sa kasalukuyang henerasyon ang nahihirapang lumayo sa kanilang mga cellphone at social media accounts dahil sa labis na paggamit nito. Hinikayat niya ang mga nagtapos na gamitin ang teknolohiya bilang kasangkapan sa pagkatuto, paglilingkod, at responsableng pakikilahok sa komunidad sa halip na maging hadlang sa kanilang paghubog bilang mabuting mamamayan.

Matapos ang talumpati, isinagawa ang pamamahagi ng mga sertipiko sa mga nagtapos at pagkilala sa mga tumanggap ng mga parangal tulad ng Outstanding Student of the Year at NSTP Leadership of the Year. Pinangunahan naman ni Shania Lee F. Paglicauan ang NSTP Commitment para sa pang umagang programa habang si Mark Jason A. Tan naman ang nanguna sa panghapong programa.

Binigyang-wakas ang programa sa pamamagitan ng pangwakas na mensahe ni Ms. Kim Evangelio, OIC-Program Head ng G.E. Department, na nagpaalala sa mga nagtapos na dalhin ang mga aral ng serbisyo, pamumuno, at pananagutan sa kanilang magiging papel sa lipunan.

Sa kabuuan, naging makabuluhan ang seremonya hindi lamang bilang pagdiriwang ng pagtatapos sa NSTP kundi bilang paalala sa mga kabataan na gamitin nang responsable ang teknolohiya at social media habang patuloy na naglilingkod sa bayan.

Good luck, Stiers!
