St. Alphonsus Catholic School (SACS) is a Catholic institution run by the Benedictine Sisters. Its campus is located at Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, Philippines. It offers programs in the preparatory, elementary and secondary levels. The school is accredited by the PAASCU. It is the first private school on the island of Mactan founded by the Redemptorist Fathers in 1916. Since 1921, SACS has been under the administration of the Missionary Benedictine Sisters even when the Parish was turned over by the Redemptorists to the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MSC) in 1921. In 1991, SACS celebrated its Diamond Jubilee. SACS celebrated its 90th foundation day in August 2005. ==History== Saint Alphonsus Catholic School was founded in 1916 by the Redemptorist Fathers, who named it in honor of their founder, Saint Alphonsus de Liguori. In 1916, the primary course was opened and in 1918, the intermediate grades were added thus completing the Elementary Department. In 1921, the Missionary Benedictine Sisters were called to administer the school, a task they have been undertaking to the present day. In 1929, the Redemptorist Fathers turned over the Parish to the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart(MSC). But the Benedictine Sisters stayed on their work for the school. SACS began with a school population of 250, and in 1999 reached an enrollment of 4,000 for both Elementary and Secondary Departments. In 1985 the school went through its preliminary survey accreditation by the PAASCU. In May 1990, the High School Department was granted an initial accreditation by the PAASCU. In April 2002 the Grade School was awarded a certificate of accredited status making both departments accredited. SACS is now administered by the DOLSH (Daughters of our Lady of the Sacred Heart) sisters. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Saint Alphonsus Catholic School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
