| OVERVIEW | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Mother Shepherd School is where I spent my entire pre-school, elementary and high school days. I had so many wonderful and memorable experiences in this school particularly my Sophomore and Senior years. From here I have gained confidence and trust within me inspite of the struggles and hazards we met. |

| SCHOOL SEAL | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| A student of Mother Shepherd School should keep in view the ideals on which Mother Shepherd School is founded. Love for country and sanctity in education, all directed towards the attainment of the goal - GOD'S GREATER HONOR AND GLORY THROUGH MARY - are the ideals fittingly illustrated in the seal of the school. The tripartition with the background of white, yellow and blue stands for the colors upheld by the school. The laurel leaf on the right symbolizes intelligence: the torch on the right stands for the beacon illuminating Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao while A.D. 1982 stands for the year the school was founded. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Mother Shepherd School's task is to provide the youth with education founded on Christian ideals and spirit. These symbols are emblazoned on a circle to imply that armed and protected by Mother Shepherd Schools ideals, the student's will serve God, Country and Neighbor. Inside the triangle is the Holy Cross which denotes supremacy of God, the Father over all things, as Protector of the country and the Mother Shepherd School. |

| HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What started as a weekend tutorial classes of fifteen (15) pupils is now a progressive school. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The school was inaugurated in the school year of June 1982 to 1983 renting a unit which was remnant of a previous Pre-School in Building 7. The teacher/Directress has to resign from De La Salle-Zobel in order to concentrate fully to her initial enrolees of thirty-seven (37) Kindergarten and thirty (30) for Nursery. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The school was conceived in mid-year 1981 as a Saturday tutorial class intended for La Salle and Benedictine Abbey graders who have deficiency in their academics. The classes were held in a terrace, four (4) square meters in area, a part of the household of the founder who is a beneficiary of a unit of Building 1, BLISS Site, Muntinlupa. The chairs and tables were collapsible but the lessons are fixed yet flexible. Before the year ended, the teacher/Directress was flooded with commenting requests from satisfied parents to put up a pre-school. What followed next was a comprehensive project study and implementation. |

| COMMITMENT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| When the school was inaugurated in 1982-1983, the plan was limited to operate only Pre-School Department. The need to expand yearly was felt because of the growing trust of parents in the development of their children. Reciprocating the trust and confidence the parents have shown to the school, the administration is committed for the continuity of learning of their children. A technical school is soon to be established as part of the continuous lessons program with the emphasis on Computer Engineering and Computer Technology. Complimenting these computer course, Industrial Management and Business Administration will be offered together with Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology, Electronics, and Engineering/Drafting courses. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The road ahead is rough and the course is challenging. Behind her back, the school has survived eight (8) difficult yet gratifying experience in years. With the help of the patronizing and supportive parents, dedicated and capable administrators who thrive on problems and difficulties, and the Supreme Being on their side, Thy will be done. |

| PHILOSOPHY | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The school was founded on love, faith and hardwork. Love to a special woman who loves children and dearest to the Founder - his wife; faith to the Blessed Mother who the name of the school was taken and hardwork for the reason that God helps those who help themselves. Mother Shepherd School therefore exists on the basis of reciprocity. Love begets love. Love for children is the guiding spirit and inspiration that giving them the best education mentally, physically, morally, and spiritually are of prime importance. Faith, because it is the enlightening spirit that conquers all odds, difficulties and burdens. Hardwork, because it is the moving force that carries all the loads and hardships. If faith has moved mountains, for the Founder - Love, Faith and Hardwork have built Mother Shepherd School. |

| HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL (continued) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| To accommodate the growing enrolees, the school transferred to a bigger space. In 1984-1985, the school transferred to a new home in the ground floor of Building 8, the remnants of a garment business. In here, the school expanded up to Grade III until for school year 1986-1987. In 1985-1986, the school had branched out in Adelina I in San Pedro, Laguna offering Nursery, Kindergarten and Preparatory to Grade I. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| At the start of the school year 1986-1987, the school has anticipated another problem of space shortage. The BLISS Site can no longer accommodate any expansion. One is certain though that putting up a building is inevitable. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Everything is set in putting up the building but not until the newly constructed market at MBAI Commercial Complex in Soldiers Hills ceased to operate. After a whirlwind negotiation with the authorities of the MBAI, a similar whirlwind improvement of the site was started in preparation for the school year 1987-1988. |
