Philosophy, Vision, Mission, GOALS & OBJECTIVE

Philosophy of Education

  • Following the mandate of Jesus Christ to “go forth and make disciples of all nations” (Mt. 28:19), we, the St. Joseph’s College of Baggao, Inc. (SJCBI) community consider education as integral to the Church’s mission to evangelize. Being a Catholic school, SJCBI is the privileged place of proclaiming the Good News. We strive to create a safe, wholesome and caring environment to fully develop the potential of each learner rooted on Gospel values, celebrated through worship and service to others and enriched with Catholic Teachings and Values.
  • We believe we are made in the image and likeness of God and deeply respect the innate dignity and uniqueness of individual persons. We strive towards excellence as we develop the spiritual, moral, intellectual, social, cultural, and physical aspects of each learner.
  •  In close collaboration with the parents who are the primary educators of their children and the other stakeholders, the learners are not only equipped with competencies and skills that will better prepare them to meet the challenges in our rapidly changing world, but they are also to imbibe a Christ-centered spirituality that integrates faith with knowledge.
  • The gospel of Jesus Christ and His person inspires and guides our school in every dimension of its life and activity – its vision and mission, the curriculum, its community life, its selection of teachers and even its physical environment.
