Posibleng ipatawag ang mga magulang ng mga estudyanteng gagamit ng salitang “esmeringhoy.”
Kapag paulit-ulit ang offense, posibleng ipatawag ang estudyante sa principal's office.
Nag-viral ang “esmeringhoy” matapos itong gamitin ng isang ginang ukol sa kanyang partner nang dumulog sila sa isang kilalang public-service program.
Pero hindi porke’t viral ay makikiuso na, kaya nagbigay ng campuswide reminder ang student officers ng Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG) sa Bani East Integrated School sa Bani, Pangasinan.
Bukod sa “esmeringhoy,” bawal ding gamitin ang iba pang street lingo na may sexual meanings.
“The Supreme Secondary Learner Government, in coordination with the school administration, reminds all students that the use of the term 'ESMERINGHOY' and its variations or other term ( e.g. jerjer, espekikay, esmeringer, bembang, etc. ) is strictly prohibited within the school premises, during official school activities, and on school-affiliated online platforms.”
Hakbang daw ito ng student government para maisulong ang "mindful speech, respect, inclusivity, and Good and Moral Right Conduct."
Dapat daw piliin ang mga salitang gagamitin “and help maintain a safe, positive, and respectful learning environment for everyone.”
Paalala pa ng statement: ”May we remind everyone that these kind of words are not to be joked about, especially that it is not a relevant term to be used in our school.”

PROHIBITED IN SCHOOL
Ang pagbabawal sa paggamit ng mga binanggit na words ay nakapaloob sa rules ng eskuwelahan:
“Under the Rule #9 of our school handbook: Respect, Safety, and Proper Conduct — Threats, intimidation, harassment, discriminatory remarks, or abusive behavior are prohibited wherein the usage of the word 'esmiringhoy' lies on this prohibition.
“This is considered as harassment especially if the learner continues to use the word with another student or other personnel.”
Kalakip din ng post ang mga “equivalent interventions of different offenses:”
- 1st - Counseling and verbal warning.
- 2nd - Written warning and parent conference with adviser and guidance counselor designate.
- 3rd - Referral to the Office of the Principal for disciplinary intervention.
Inaasahan daw ang pakikiisa ng lahat ng mga estudyante sa inilabas na reminder.
Pagtatapos ng post, “Together, let us build a community where everyone feels valued, respected, and included.

"Choose your words wisely."
