The after-school program officially became Our Lady of Holy Cross School, starting with a preschool section and a class of 21 children.
The Sisters moved into their new convent, marking a significant step in establishing a permanent presence.
The preschool was temporarily moved to the convent's residence to prepare for the completion of the first phase of the new school building project.
The school finally found its permanent home at the beginning of the academic year when it moved into the newly completed classrooms.
OLHCS provides a comprehensive education with a preschool, primary school, and junior high school, welcoming all eligible children at the Basic Education level.
