Claret School of Quezon City is an exclusive school for boys managed by the Claretian Missionaries that was founded in June 1967. It was named after its patron saint, St. Anthony Mary Claret, who founded the Congregation of Missionary Sons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in 1849 in the city of Vic, Spain. It is located at Mahinhin Street, U.P. Village, Diliman, Quezon City.
[edit] Organization
Claret School of Quezon City is composed of the Child Study Center, the Grade School department and the High School department. While the Grade School and High School units were established in 1967, it was only in June 2001 that the school started the operation of the Child Study Center. The Center accepts 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 year-old boys and girls for nursery and 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 year-old boys for Kinder. From Kinder, the curriculum ladder extends to the prep level which was originally integrated to the Grade School in 1967.
The Grade School department of Claret School of Quezon City was formally accredited by the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities (PAASCU) on March 15, 1978. Thereafter, it was granted reaccreditation in 1982, 1988, 1994, 2000 and the latest was until 2005, attesting to the high standard which the Grade School has achieved in the following areas: school and community, administration/ school staff instructional programs, student services, student activity programs, and facilities.
