OPENING PROGRAM

MARIZ: High school life is a roller coaster ride. It is the period of exploring the unknown, a
time of shaping one’s true identity and the stage of building bonds and
friendships. This afternoon another milestone is about to unfold in your lives as
you take part in one of the most waited moment in high school, the Junior and
Senior Graduation Ball 2023.

JERSON: Please rise for the entrance of colors to be officiated by the Senior Scouts
Ceriaco A. Abes Memorial National High School.

The much-awaited social gathering of the junior and senior students of our school
has finally come as they are poised for take-off to the world of fashion, fad &
craze! Ladies and Gentlemen, a pleasant evening to everyone! You are all
welcome to the Graduation Ball 2023. And now….Let’s paint the town red and roll
out the red carpet for the grand entrance as they take the walk of fame. Let us all
witness the entrance of the Juniors and Seniors of Ceriaco A. Abes Memorial
National High School. Let’s give them a resonating applause.

MARCO: Please remain standing for the invocation and to be followed by the singing of the
national.

SAMPLE PRAYER: “Lord, we thank you for bringing us all here safely. This afternoon is a
once-in-a-lifetime event and is a very special evening for all of us. Protect us from harm
and guide us in all our actions. Let us act as ladies and gentlemen and that we may
become mature and responsible persons tonight. Give us the grace and elegance we need
throughout the whole evening and let us be able to express our heartfelt gratitude and
respect to one another, especially us, the Juniors, to the Seniors.

We pray that our Junior-Senior prom would be a success. Bless each of us the beauty and
wisdom to be able to present ourselves with poise and confidence. Let your presence be
with us all and we pray that you return us home as safely as you brought us here. Lord, we
pray that everyone would have a great time. Let it be an unforgettable experience to
cherish and become a night to definitely remember. This we ask and pray, in Jesus' name,
Amen.”
ELLEN: You may now take your seats. Again, good afternoon to the handsome gentlemen
and the beautiful young ladies who are all dressed up for this exciting occasion. For sure
all of you have spent time, treasure and energy for this wonderful event.

MARCO: I definitely agree, partner. Seeing our students wearing suits and gowns and not
their usual uniforms is such a refreshing sight, isn’t it? And I bet they are all excited to
dance their crushes and to party-party.

ELLEN: But before that, let us hear the opening remarks from our very beautiful and always
young at heart principal, Dr. Maria Cristina Robles.
