Graduation rites must be memorable – DepEd
OLONGAPO CITY–The Education Department (DepEd) reminded public school officials to ensure a memorable and exciting commencement exercises for the millions of pupils and students who will graduate this year.
And DepEd Secretary Armin Luistro stressed that it should be without “extravagant splurges.”
“It is a part of DepEd’s public service to the people in giving a simple yet an unforgettable graduation for students and that they deserve a ceremony without paying a cent,” Luistro said in a statement.
ThetMarzan-Estrealla, chairman of the city council’s education committee, said in a text message that the local school board said it will “abide by the guidelines.”
“We’ve already met with DepEd division superintendent Jess Ferrer about it. And the principals were aptly advised,” Marzan explained.
She added that there will a series of meetings with the different Parents and Teachers Associations (PTA) in the city this coming weeks.
In line with its reform agenda, DepEd has released the 2013 Graduation Rites with the theme “Building the Nation’s Future Leaders through the K to 12 Basic Education Program”.
In a statement, DepEd said it is still implementing the “No Collection” of graduation fees and forcing students to submit non-academic projects as requirement to graduate is strictly prohibited.
While the same is encouraged in private schools, they are allowed to exercise their discretion.
DepEd also asked politicians to respect the graduations as a “solemn ceremony intended for the graduating students and their parents, and should not be used as a platform for political forum.”
Schools violating the said policy, should be reported to the DeTXT Action Center at telephone numbers 636-1663 or 633-1942. (DepEd)
Graduation rites should be scheduled either on the 18th or 19th of March. ● Butch Gunio
