MISSION
ST. THERESA’S COLLEGE, QUEZON CITY is our school. It is a Catholic institution of learning and development for young women, owned and administered by the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (ICM Srs.) St. Theresa’s College provides its students, from the preparatory level through the elementary and secondary school, a dynamic program of basic education which stresses both training for academic proficiency and on-going formation within life situations.
As an ICM school, our structures, content and processes of learning are imbued with a missionary spirit, which is the living legacy of Mother Marie Louise De Meester. Likewise, the spirit of St. Theresa of Avila, seeker of truth and woman reformer, permeates our educational program.
Thus, our school is committed –
1. To develop and enhance the gifts and potentials of every student through a formation that is both holistic and steeped in Gospel values;
2. To promote a transformative education, where leadership is exercised in service with a preferential option for the poor and by working for justice;
3. To foster right and life-giving relationships with God, with nature, with other persons, and with oneself;
4. To confront the unjust, inhuman and life-threatening structures and practices prevailing in society, in solidarity with various sectors of the larger community and to work together for social transformation, by empowering wo/men and by protecting the integrity of the earth;
5. To seek and develop an alternative lifestyle which espouses simplicity and assures sustainable sufficiency for all;
6. To promote a culture of peace.
All of us – students, personnel, administration, parents, alumnae, and ICM Sisters – we are all partners in mission. Let us walk together with Jesus Christ as our light. Let us make our school, our homes, the Philippines, and the world oases of life, love, and peace. Let our light shine and be a blessing!
