Homeroom & Character Formation Program

Each class is under the guidance of an adviser and a guidance counselor to help the students develop their moral and character formation.  The formation program aims to: (1) make students aware of their obligations as a Christian, as a Filipino and as a student. (2)  help them know what is right, value what is right and do what is right.  (3) develop the students into an ideal Christian. (4)  form any phase of the students’ personality.

With these objectives in mind, counseling and specific modules are designed to correct and develop the students’ behavior and attitude.
