To: Our Claretian Family
Warm greetings to our dear parents, students, personnel, distinguished guests, and friends.
What a wonderful and energetic Foundation Day celebration this has been! Seeing our community come together with such enthusiasm, talent, and unity over these past few days is a powerful reminder of what makes Claret School of Quezon City so deeply special. The resounding success of today’s festivities reflects the vibrant spirit, dedication, and heart that every Claretian brings to our campus.
Standing on the foundation of this success and looking ahead to the future, we continuously ask ourselves: How do we make the Claretian experience even stronger? How do we prepare our students not just to succeed in higher education, but to lead and excel in a globalized world?
For nearly six decades, this school has been a second home to thousands of young men who have walked these corridors, worn the Claretian uniform, sung our school hymn, and built lifelong friendships. Together, as one family, we have forged an incredible legacy of academic excellence, sportsmanship, and selfless service.
Today, as we celebrate all that we have accomplished together, we are taking a historic step forward.
Beginning in School Year 2027–2028, Claret School will officially welcome female students grades 1 to 12 as we transition into full co-educational institution!
By opening our doors wider, we are preparing our students for a learning environment that truly reflects the real world. Learning side by side in the classroom will sharpen communication skills, bring dynamic new perspectives to academic discussions, and foster genuine, lifelong mutual respect.
This milestone also heralds an expanded, vibrant campus life. It opens a whole new chapter for our community enriching our clubs, performing arts, student council initiatives, and athletic programs.
Yet, even as we embrace this growth, our Claretian identity stays firmly rooted. Moving forward does not mean losing who we are. Our fierce school spirit, our athletic drive, our strong sense of camaraderie, and our deep devotion to St. Anthony Mary Claret remain as steadfast as ever. Our Claretian family isn't changing, it is simply growing bigger and stronger.
Our Foundation Week theme says it all: “Tahanang Claretiano, Sama-Sama sa Misyon.” Every single one of you plays a vital role in shaping this exciting next chapter. Let us lead with character, welcome new traditions with open hearts, and show the world what true Claretian leadership looks like.
This historic initiative formalized and approved by virtue of Board Resolution No. 2006-03—is a collaborative milestone taken together with God’s abundant blessings, in His perfect time.
Thank you for making this Foundation Day an unforgettable success, and thank you for your unwavering trust as we embark on this exciting journey together.
Congratulations to us all!
Scientia Maxime Cum Virtute!
