honors assembly, flag-raising ceremony
Many U.S. schools hold regular "honors assemblies" where the whole school gathers and high achievers are named and rewarded. These assemblies are occasionally accompanied by separate "flag-raising ceremonies," which involve the pledge of allegiance, national anthem, etc. Flag-raising ceremonies are also held at the start of the school year, Veterans' Day, etc. In this particular context, I would use "honors assembly."

: I think I'd go with your second option. It evokes a certain image, and could easily be combined with 'recognition at' [different/various flag-raising ceremonies].

Discussion
In Colombia, "izada de bandera" is a very familiar event, far more complex than just raising a flag, and conveying its full meaning may require too much text yet be unnecessary.
