SHS Love Month 2026: Discovering Real Love Through Respect, Awareness, and Wise Choices

On February 13, 2026, Senior High School students gathered at Tupay-ya Gym for the Love Month Celebration entitled “Real Love: Respect, Education, Awareness and Life Choices.” The event was organized by the SSLG in collaboration with the Guidance Office to help students better understand love from biblical, sexual, and psychological perspectives. The seminar emphasized that love goes beyond romance and requires responsibility, respect, and wise decision-making.

The program opened with the singing of the National Anthem and an opening prayer, setting a tone of unity and gratitude. Ma’am Sheryl Garcia, SSLG Adviser, warmly welcomed the participants and encouraged them to take the opportunity to reflect on the true meaning of love. The dance club energized the crowd with a lively intermission number, adding joy and excitement to the celebration.

The first speaker, Ptr. Esio Paul Tabon, reflected on God’s boundless and unconditional love. He reminded students that Love Month is not only about romantic relationships but also about recognizing God’s love manifested through daily provisions, strengthened relationships, mental well-being, and spiritual guidance. He concluded his message with a heartfelt prayer for the February celebrants, followed by the giving of tokens and certificates.

The second speaker, Ma’am Rose Noemi Co, discussed Adolescent Reproductive Health, highlighting the importance of respect, self-control, and making wise life choices. She emphasized that while love is a natural part of growing up, students must understand the responsibilities that come with it and recognize that they are not yet ready for family life obligations.

The third speaker, Sir Kendrick Adrian Wanawan, shared insights on boy-girl relationships. He emphasized building healthy relationships founded on respect, clear boundaries, honesty, and responsible decision-making. He also pointed out common mistakes in relationships and encouraged open communication to prevent misunderstandings and disconnection.

Overall, the Love Month Celebration successfully provided students with meaningful insights about real love—love that is rooted in respect, guided by education, strengthened by awareness, and shaped by wise life choices.
