St. Paul College of Makati

St. Paul College of Makati (SPCM) is a private Catholic school on D.M. Rivera Street, Poblacion, Makati, run by the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres (SPC). It traces its founding to 1942, when three SPC sisters opened a school near Saints Peter and Paul Parish Church at the request of the parish priest, initially known as Makati Catholic School. It was renamed Saint Paul School of Makati in 1976 and became St. Paul College of Makati in 2002. The school received the apostolic blessing of Pope Pius XII in 1947. SPCM offers Early Years (Kindergarten) through Senior High School and does not operate a college division. Its Senior High School offers the STEM, ABM, HUMSS and GAS strands. The school holds PAASCU Level II accreditation for Basic Education, valid to May 2029, first accredited in 2014. Its campus spans seven named buildings, including science laboratories, two gymnasiums, a library, computer labs, a swimming pool, a speech laboratory, and the five-story Our Lady of Chartres Building built for Grades 7 to 12.
