The institution’s principal, Rev. Fr. Theophilus Itaman, in an interview, said the award will encourage the school and its students to gun for more outstanding achievements.

He attributed the award to the school’s style of nurturing students, saying they are not just taught academics, but are also cultured morally and spiritually as mandated by the church.

Ituman stated that a child who already has the fear of God is not difficult to nurture.

“So, the moral training children get from being brought up not only in academics shapes them well enough for them to excel. We also send our teachers out for training to build themselves as well,” said.
