Vision

Moved by the ideal and charism of St. Augustine, SAGA's Patron Saint, we envision ourselves as truly formed and committed Catholic Christians who live one mind and one heart, the Good News in order to prepare the young men and women entrusted to our care to become responsible citizens who love God above all things and love this country and the Filipino people.

Mission

In order to achieve our vision of truly formed and committed Christians, we commit ourselves to: ·put Catholic Christian Religion and Evangelization as the core and the motivating force of the second curriculum. ·produce upright citizens and future leaders of the nation who are God-oriented, person-oriented, patriotic, lovers of life, conservers of nature, honest and self-disciplined. ·develop the young minds to become functionally literate, economically secure, socially and morally responsible citizens who truly love the Filipino nation and the Filipino people. ·bring the whole academic community to an awareness of each one's responsibility to the community. ·inculcate prayer, work, study, fraternal charity and oneness of mind and heart on God to its school community.

Goals

In pursuing this mission the school aims to help the young acquire high education by providing: a.) a religious education which is designed to inculcate into them, the moral and the spiritual values that reflect the Catholic Christian faith. b.) a new secondary education curriculum which guides the student to develop themselves in all aspects of life and to have a well-rounded personality. c.) a community where exposure and involvement in varied social, cultural and spiritual activities are required so that students will grow as mature persons to prepare them for many challenges in life.
