Thirty fourth year students along with teachers, parents, and school administrators gathered at the Davidson Hotel for the 3rd Send-off Ceremony for pre-service teachers on November 20, 2025.
The send-off program symbolized their readiness to dive into real-world teaching through their upcoming internship.
In an opening message, Dr. Rosiebille Galban, the School's Vice President for Academic Affairs said, "This is not just a celebration of your academic accomplishments, but a joyful moment of commissioning".
She emphasized that being a true teacher means to lead with just, creativity, heart, and integrity.
Guest speaker Winnie Claire Cue Martin, Teacher III at Pakawit Elementary School and an alumna of STCI shared words of encouragement and pieces of advice for the student teachers.
"Teaching is life; it is hard work; it is service. Ito ang tibok ng bawat komunidad at tulay sa pangarap. Hindi lamang tayo nagtuturo at nagpapangaral, you are shaping minds, nurturing character, and helping young learners to become who they are," she said.
Prezious Flores, CTE fourth year adviser, took the lead of mentioning the essence of the pins.
The pinning ceremony commenced right after, and is followed by the oath of commitment led by Lyka Baculi, CTE faculty.
On behalf of all the pre-service teachers, Shyna Tangbawan, 4th year Bachelor of Elementary Education shared words of gratitude to all the people who have helped them throughout their journey.
The receiving of certificates for the completion of the FS 1 AND FS 2 followed afterwards.
Dr. Mayeth T. Valdez, Dean of the College of Teacher Education in her send off message said, "Teachers are the epitome of integrity and honesty." She emphasized that as they go and enter the world of teaching, they must be ready to learn, lead, and guide young minds.
The program was hosted by Christian A. Malnawa, and Des Gallardo, Faculty of the College of Teacher Education.
