St. Paul Avenue, Bantay 2727, Ilocos Sur
Our school motto is Caritas Christi Urget Nos or The Charity of Christ Impels Us. This ideal has fired the zeal of countless SPC Sisters to cross the vast waters and to establish Paulinian schools all over the world.
Green and Gold are the official colors of all Paulinian educational institution.
Green symbolizes life, hope, and newness. It stands for dynamism, initiative, innovation and the willingness to blaze new trails.
Gold symbolizes integrity, wholesome interpersonal relationships, excellence, and the glory of God. For the Paulinian, it stands for honesty, uprightness, and the constant striving for what is excellent, true and good, especially for the Ultimate Good – God Himself.
Red, White, and Blue, colors of the Philippine flag, symbolize patriotism or love of country. The tricolor also recalls the flag of France, country of origin of the SPC Congregation, inviting fidelity to the Paulinian tradition as taught and exemplified by the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres.
Specifically, Red is for courage, readiness for sacrifice, and the tranquil daring to face every challenge; White is for purity and simplicity, compassion and single-mindedness in the pursuit of the Holy; Blue is for humility and forgiveness, justice and peace, and for the devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God.
The Sword in the seal is the Gospel that cuts both ways – inviting to conversion from the old life to commitment to the values of Christ. For the Paulinian, it stands for fortitude and discipline to face the challenge of continuing renewal, giving up one’s old ways to be a new man in Christ.
The Book stands for knowledge and wisdom, for the skills, values, attitudes, and competencies which the Paulinian seeks to acquire.
The Lamp means light, witness, service. It is symbolic of a life that benefits others, that witnesses to Christ and the values of the Gospel.
The Laurel Leaf signifies triumph. It is a reminder of the Christocentric-Paschal Spirituality and challenges every Paulinian to accept and endure the pains that is our share in the sufferings of Christ so we could share in His victory.
The Wavy Lines are the waters of the sea that signify readiness to go where mission calls and the tranquil daring to face what is difficult and unknown. It also stands for Ilocos Sur where the School is located and whose people it is committed to serve.

The new school seal or logo bears the color of Green and Gold as compared with the Green and White of the former, the same symbols (except for the book with crucifix which is identified as true Bible) and other school colors, school motto, and inclusion of the SPUS motto, Caritas, Veritas, Scientia.
Caritas is action born of faith and of a deep love of God and neighbor. It is compassionate, caring, warmth, hospitality, being “all to all” which marks the Paulinian and witness of life impacts. Like the Sisters of Saint Paul of Chartres whose life motto is Caritas Christi Urget Nos, the Paulinian is motivated by love especially for the underprivileged.
Veritas, is an epitome of morality, values and social concern, the striving for truth and justice, peace and unity and the higher gifts of the Spirit. It is entrenched by the legacy left by the founder of the Sisters of Saint Paul of Chartres, Father Louis Chauvet, who said, “I have no greater blessing than to see my daughters walk in the truth.” It is an improved quality of life rooted in Christ and the Paulinian zeal to build communities of authentic disciples.
Scientia, is authentic scholarship, systematic and disciplined effort to teach and learn so that the gifts or “charisms” of the Paulinian may be fully developed to make him a competent servant leader of the Church and country.
