Sa pagsasanib ng wikang Filipino at makabagong teknolohiya, ipinagdiwang sa Kabankalan National High School ang Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa 2026 ngayong ika-tatlo ng Sityembre sa temang โ€œWikang Filipino at AI: Kasangkapan sa Pananaliksik at Tulay sa Yaman ng Impormasyon.โ€

Ang layunin ng selebrasyong ito ay ipakita ang halaga ng wikang Filipino habang ginagamit ang AI nang matalino at responsable.

Nagtipon-tipon ang mga mag-aaral at mga g**o sa loob ng eskwelahan upang makiisa sa pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa 2026. Ang lahat ay naghanda at nagsuot ng mga tradisyonal na kasuotang Pilipino bilang simbolo ng ating pagkakakilanlan at pagpapahalaga sa ating kultura at tradisyon.

Nagsimula ang programa sa pag-parade ng mga g**o. Kanilang ipinakita ang kanilang magagandang kasuotan. Pinangunahan ito ng mga g**o sa Filipino, master teachers, at mga g**o sa iba't ibang baitang.

Matapos ang parada, pormal na binuksan ang pagdiriwang sa pamamagitan ng mga pambungad na mensahe nina Maโ€™am Ali Flor Medel at Punong-g**o Maโ€™am Rosslyn Mabasa.

Binigyang-diin ni Ma'am Rosslyn Mabasa sa kaniyang pahayag na huwag lamang tayo umasa sa AI, gamitin natin ito nang matalino at responsable. Bigyan din natin ng kahalagahan ang wikang Filipino sa kabila ng mabilis na pag-unlad ng makabagong teknolohiya at artipisyal na intelehensiya.

Sinundan ito ng pagtatanghal mula sa Specal Program of the Arts at mga piling mag-aaral sa ikalabin-isa at labindalawang bilang na nagbigay-buhay sa programa sa pamamagitan ng kanilang pagtatanghal.

โ€œSa gitna ng makabagong teknolohiya, hindi dapat mawala ang malikhaing puso ng Pilipino.โ€

Matapos ang pagtatanghal, sinundan ito ng Pista sa Nayon, kung saan naglibot ang mga g**o at mag-aaral sa bawat mesa upang makita ang iba't ibang pagkaing Pilipino na inihanda ng bawat baitang. Matapos ang pag-iikot, nagsalo-salo ang mga g**o at mag-aaral, na nagbigay-diin sa diwa ng pagkakaisa at pagbabahaginan sa kulturang Pilipino.

Hindi rin nagpahuli ang mga mag-aaral sa mga palaro sa Pista sa Nayon. Aktibong nakibahagi ang bawat baitang sa mga paligsahan, na sinabayan ng hiyawan, tawanan, at pagsuporta habang isinasagawa ang iba't ibang laro.

Matapos ang mga palaro, inanunsyo naman ang mga nagwagi sa iba't ibang aktibidad bilang pagkilala sa kanilang husay at pakikilahok.

Sa pagtatapos ng pagdiriwang, iniwan sa mga mag-aaral ang isang mahalagang paalala tungkol sa paggamit ng AI at sa patuloy na pagpapahalaga sa sariling wika at pagkakakilanlan.

Maaaring mas mabilis ng AI ang paghahanap ng impormasyon at mas madali ang pagbuo ng ideya, ngunit nasa tao pa rin ang pinakamahalagang tungkulinโ€”ang magsuri, magtanong, magpatunay, at maging responsable.

Sapagkat maaaring makabuo ng teksto ang AI, ngunit tayo ang nagbibigay ng kahulugan. Maaari itong magbigay ng impormasyon, ngunit tayo ang nagbibigay ng konteksto. Maaari itong maging tulay, ngunit tayo ang nagpapasya kung saan tayo pupunta.

The TLE Skills Expo and Entrepreneurship Fair was more than a showcase of products, presentations, and entrepreneurial ideas. Behind every booth were students putting classroom lessons into action,facing pressure, building confidence, and discovering skills that could help shape their future.

For the students who participated, the event became an opportunity to experience what it means to apply their knowledge beyond the classroom.

For a Grade 12-TUDO Tourism student, nervousness gradually turned into confidence. She shared that she no longer felt nervous because she knew she could do it and enjoyed what she was doing. Through the experience, she also learned the importance of treating customers well while developing skills connected to her chosen track.

While some students gained confidence, others faced pressure along the way.

A Grade 9 -TAN student shared that there were moments when the activity felt stressful. However, using time management wisely helped make their presentation successful. The experience also taught the student an important lesson: "๐„๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐š๐ฌ๐ค ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐š ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐œ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฐ๐š๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐š๐ง๐ฌ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ."It highlights the importance of patience and staying calm amid challenges.

For Maโ€™am Jona Ortaliz, one of the speakers of the event, the purpose of the fair goes beyond earning profit. She emphasized that the activity allows students to develop the skills they have learned in school while opening their minds to possibilities for their future.

According to Ma'am Ortaliz, business is not only about profit. It is also about preparing students for their future and teaching them to use their skills to help other people and the community.

Her message to the participants was to continue putting their skills into action. Plans and ideas become meaningful when they are followed by action even in small ways.

The TLE Skills Expo and Entrepreneurship Fair may have lasted only for a day, but the lessons gained from it can go far beyond the booths. For these students, every challenge became an opportunity to learn, every task became a chance to grow, and every skill became a step toward the future.

Because the real success of the fair was not only what students were able to present, but what they were able to learn, experience, and put into action.

Preparing for tomorrow does not always begin with having everything figured out. The skills we learn today become the steps we take toward tomorrow.

On the morning of September 2, Kabankalan National High School held its Technology, Skills, Livelihood, and Entrepreneurship Fair. The students arranged tables where they displayed their products and other things they had prepared. They explained their work and showed the skills they learned in class.

The teachers visited the tables to test and judge the studentsโ€™ products. They looked at the productsโ€™ quality, creativity, usefulness, and presentation. The fair helped the students become more confident and gave them a chance to show their talents and learn more about entrepreneurship.

Today, we look backโ€”not merely to remember the names etched into our history, but to understand the courage, conviction, and love for country that made them worthy of being called bayani.

From Josรฉ Rizal, whose words awakened a nation, to Andrรฉs Bonifacio, who dared to challenge an unjust order, our heroes showed us that love for the Philippines is more than a feeling. It is a responsibility.

For as long as our nation has struggled, there have been Filipinos who chose to stand.

And today, that courage continues to take many forms.

It is found in those who speak the truth when it is easier to remain silent; in those who serve despite broken systems; in those who defend the vulnerable, seek justice, and work quietly for the betterment of their communities.

As Emilio Jacinto wrote, โ€œ๐‘จ๐’๐’ˆ ๐’•๐’–๐’๐’‚๐’š ๐’๐’‚ ๐’Œ๐’‚๐’ƒ๐’‚๐’๐’‚๐’๐’‚๐’ ๐’‚๐’š ๐’‚๐’๐’ˆ ๐’‘๐’‚๐’ˆ๐’Œ๐’‚๐’Œ๐’‚๐’˜๐’‚๐’๐’ˆ-๐’ˆ๐’‚๐’˜๐’‚.โ€ In serving others, we carry forward the very spirit that our heroes left behind.

Because heroism does not belong solely to the past.

It lives wherever there is a Filipino willing to stand for what is right. It lives in every act of courage, every voice raised against injustice, and every hand extended in service of the nation.

To remember our heroes, therefore, is not simply to look backward. ๐ˆ๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐š๐ฌ๐ค ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฏ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ž ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐จ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐œ๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฒ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐›๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐.

May we remember their sacrifices not with admiration alone, but with action.

May their courage become ours.
May their love for the nation endure in us.
And may we, in our own ways, continue the work they began.

August 30 reminds us that press freedom is more than the freedom to writeโ€”it is the freedom to seek truth, ask questions, and give people a voice. Today, we honor Filipino journalists who continue to stand for truth and accountability, even in the face of challenges.

May every journalist, from aspiring campus writers to seasoned professionals, remain steadfast in their commitment to truth, integrity, and public service. And may we, as readers and citizens, recognize the power of a free press in shaping an informed and empowered society.

Letโ€™s turn that pressure into something meaningful! As the first-term examination gets closer, let us all remind ourselves that we are not alone. ๐‘ท๐‘น๐‘จ๐’€ ๐‘ท๐‘จ๐‘น๐‘จ ๐‘บ๐‘ผ๐‘น๐‘ฌ! ๐Ÿ’ซ

But always remember that you are the ones answering the examination, and your scores reflect what youโ€™ve learned. So take your time to review and study all the lessons your teachers have taught you throughout the term.

As we take our examinations on ๐—”๐—จ๐—š๐—จ๐—ฆ๐—ง ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿด, let us carry with us all the lessons weโ€™ve learned. May our preparation, perseverance, and prayers lead us to success.

๐๐€๐Œ๐๐€๐๐ˆ๐“๐ˆ๐Š๐€๐ | Gising Bayan!

Tuwing eleksyon, ang yaman ay bumubuhos,
Limang daan na panukli, bigas at sardinas.
Yakap sa yakap, ngiti sa ngiti,
"Kaibigan ko kayo" yan ang laging sinasambit.

Lahat ay ginagawa para puso ng madla ay makuha,
Kahit langit ay aabutin, ni kahit mga tala na rin.
Para sa kanilang sariling hangarin,
Ngunit kapag sa trono ay nakaupo,
Kani-kanilang pangako ay napapako.

Kani-kanilang iniwang katagang sinambit,
Nananatili na lamang isang panaginip.
Sa likod ng malaki at magandang gusali,
Makikita mo ang tunay na laban:
Sa pagtaas ng bilihin,
Sa kulang na upuan sa paaralan,
At sa mga kalsadang sira โ€”
Yan ang hindi katanggap-tanggap.

Ang tunay na politiko ay hindi sumisigaw,
Kundi tahimik na gumagawa.
Hindi nangangako ng langit,
Kundi nagbibigay ng lupa na natatamnan.
Hindi sa telebisyon sumisikat,
Kundi sa barangay nakikita.
Hindi naghahanap ng palakpak,
Kundi naghahanap ng solusyon.

Gising, bayan!
Ang boto ay hindi tinda,
Ito ay kinabukasan ng anak at apo mo pa.
Pumili ng lider, hindi ng artista,
Pumili ng may puso, hindi ng bulsa.

๐…๐„๐€๐“๐”๐‘๐„ | ๐™ˆ๐™Š๐™๐™€ ๐™๐™ƒ๐˜ผ๐™‰ ๐™…๐™๐™Ž๐™ ๐™‚๐™๐˜ผ๐˜ฟ๐™€๐™Ž

Behind every number is a storyโ€”a student who struggled, learned, stumbled, and chose to keep going.

A grade is easy to see.

It is printed on a report card, written at the top of a paper, or displayed on a screen. A number can instantly tell whether a student passed, excelled, or fell short of expectations.

But a number can never tell the whole story.

Behind every grade is a student who may have spent hours reviewing lessons they barely understood, rushing to finish requirements before a deadline, or staying awake late at night just to complete one more task. Behind every high score is an effort that may have gone unnoticed. Behind every low score may be a student who tried harder than anyone realized.

School is more than lessons, quizzes, and examinations. It is pressure, persistence, failure, and growth.

For many students, the academic load can feel relentless. Assignments pile up, deadlines overlap, examinations arrive one after another, and the expectation to perform well can become overwhelming. There are moments when exhaustion makes quitting seem easier than continuing.

Yet, somehow, students continue.

They show up to class even after a difficult night. They submit requirements even when they doubt their own work. They study again after failing a test. They ask questions when they do not understand. They try once moreโ€”not because it is always easy, but because they believe their efforts today can shape the life they hope to have tomorrow.

And the pressure does not always come from school itself.

Sometimes, it comes from parents who expect excellent grades. Sometimes, it comes from comparing oneself with classmates who seem to have everything under control. Sometimes, the loudest pressure comes from withinโ€”from the voice that says, โ€œI should have done better.โ€

Students can be their own harshest critics.

A single low score can make someone question their abilities. A mistake can feel bigger than all the things they have accomplished. A grade that does not meet expectations can easily become a judgment of oneโ€™s worth.

But a grade is a resultโ€”not a definition of a person.

A letter or number cannot measure the courage it took to keep studying when a student was tired. It cannot measure the disappointment after failing, the determination to improve, or the quiet victories that happened along the way.

Some students struggle silently.

Some sit in classrooms trying to understand lessons while feeling completely lost. Some carry responsibilities outside school that others may never see. Some are balancing academics with family, friendships, activities, and personal challengesโ€”all while trying to keep up.

They are not simply names on a class list.

They are not percentages, rankings, or statistics.

They are people.

People who make mistakes. People who learn at different paces. People who fall behind and find their way forward. People who sometimes need a break, encouragement, or simply someone to remind them that one difficult moment does not determine their entire future.

Because education is not only about getting the highest grade.

It is also about learning how to persevere when things become difficult. It is about discovering what failure can teach, developing the courage to try again, and becoming stronger through every challenge.

So, the next time you see a studentโ€™s grade, remember that there is a story behind it.

There is effort behind the number.

There is pressure behind the achievement.

There are lessons behind the mistakes.

And there is a person behind the paper.

Because students are more than just their grades.

Sometimes, the greatest achievement is not the highest scoreโ€”but simply choosing to keep going.
