Holy Family School of Quezon City

Holy Family School of Quezon City, Inc. is a Catholic School primarily for girls. It is located at 66 Maginhawa Street, UP Village, Quezon City.HistoryThe history of the school can be traced backed in 1959 when Mother Maria Valentina Ayerra of the Servants of St. Joseph, then superior of the Holy Family Dormitory-Manila, procured a lot that would be later used for Holy Family School. The nuns from the Servants of St. Joseph later started the construction of the school in 1966 in three phases and was completed in 1971.The operations of the school began on July 1966 with a class of 50 students, both boys and girls. Two rooms were used which were the facilities available for use at that time. Boys were admitted for the pre-school level until the practice was discontinued in the mid 1980s due to limited number of classrooms and the school administration prioritized admitting female students.Due to the growing student population from 1967 to 1975, the Novitiate which stayed on the top floor of the school building transferred to a small house within the compound of the school. Another house was built in 1975 to accommodate working girls and some of the faculty members. In 1981, The Novitiate transferred to Tandang Sora when the Servants of St. Joseph nuns moved into the house they previously occupied.During its early years from (1968-1974), Holy Family School established the Holy Family Clinic and Holy Family School Branch which primarily served Barrio San Vicente. The school also sent selected fourth year students to Pinyahan Elementary School to give Catechetics.
