The Rotary Club of Marikina West held a Career Orientation Seminar for the senior students of Tanong High School last Wednesday, January 12, 2005.
This annual project of the Golden Westerners was co-sponsored by the newly chartered Interact Club of Tanong High School and the Tanong High School administration led by school Principal Mr. Albert Mutia. The project was successfully chaired by City Councilor & IPP Serafin “Bojie” Bernardino.
Almost 250 4th year high school students listened intently as leaders in their respective careers gave inspiring and motivational talks. The invited speakers who shared their wisdom came from both the government and the private sectors. The government sector was represented by: Col. Felipe Roxas, Marikina City PNP Chief, who shared his career in criminology; Dr. Loselito Llabres, from the Marikina Health Office, who talked about his career in Medicine and High School Principal Mr. Albert Mutia who used visual aids to leave a strong message to the senior students – “Destiny is not a matter of chance, but a matter of choice”.
The private sector was represented by a young group of speakers who are also leaders in their respective careers. Two (2) very young computer experts; Ms. Preida Ecstaquio and Engr. John Anthony Bernardino talked about the latest career trends in Information Technology and Computer Engineering.
Centennial President Boyet Sacro talked about his career in engineering sales and imparted the students with a list of DO’s and DONT’s in choosing a college degree. IP Rodelle Bolante, who placed no. 11 in his bar exams and a proud product of the public educational system, inspired the students with his colorful student days at the UP College of Law.
The afternoon closed with the oath-taking of the officers and directors of the newly organized Interact Club of Tanong High School. The Interactors were sworn into office by no less than the Centennial President of RC Marikina West, Pres. Boyet Sacro.
