Educational project

Alongside parents, we form children, personally and integrally, through the exercise of virtues and values framed in an environment of freedom and responsibility, so that they may be happy men who know how to serve and love others.

For our pedagogical strategy, the person is central. Therefore, each student is the axis of the teaching-learning process.

In this way, he becomes the protagonist of his educational and formative process, and manages to discover his talents and areas to strengthen.
