ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

To our beloved Head Teacher-I, Mr. Joselito D. Nazareth, and members of the staff, fellow students,
guests, parents and to each and everyone good afternoon.

Today, is the time for us, to accept and be thankful of the responsibilities that the outgoing Student is
passing to us. You may not be wondering how complicated the word "responsibility" is. Responsibility
means accepting something that you and you alone are accountable for your life. Being responsible
therefore is a realization that you are, where you are and what you are, because of your conduct and
behavior. We, must be trained to accept every responsibility that we are accountable of. We must start
now. Not later nor tomorrow, because being responsible today makes us a successful person someday.

Accepting the key of responsibility is not about the key itself, it is about how we would handle and serve
as a leader to the studentry. We are no longer kids. We must now learn how to discipline ourselves, we
must learn how to control our unstoppable voices and lastly we must now be able to distinguish what is
right from what is wrong. Next school year, the next batch of officers will be accepting the same key of
responsibility. Isn't it nice to hear that we served as a role model to them? Isn't it heart melting if we
hear them say "Thank you for being a good example". It is cliché to say "Good leader is a good follower",
but that is a fact. At this moment

we embody the Studentry, we are now the leader of the whole studentry. But the phrase "good leader is
a good follower" won't make any sense if we won’t apply it. So as a start, we must learn how to follow
God, our Parents, our Teachers and lastly, the rules and regulations of our school. Rules and regulations
of our school are so essential in our life, because disciplined people knows how to follow it, responsible
people knows how to apply it and I say successful people are thankful for those. If we learn and start to
follow it, we can be a good leader, a model to everyone and a successful person too.

In behalf of the Junior Students of school year 2018-2019, we whole heartedly and humbly accept the
key of responsibility that you entrusted to us. The legacy that you will leave in our school and in our life
will still continue. The values you showed will not stop in us, as what I’ve said, it WILL CONTINUE.
Because the next time we pass these responsibilities, we will definitely remind the incoming ones how
you took care and handled everything here in our institution.

Thank you all very much.
