Stella Maris School began from a simple idea by a 52-year-old woman to realize her late husband's dream of founding a home for orphans. On May 15, 1995, Drg. Strela and her husband Lukman founded Stella Maris School, which initially offered Playgroup, TK, and SD. It started in a shop-house in BSD Sector XIV, Tangerang; two years later a branch opened in Gading Serpong to meet rising demand, and SMP was added. In 2004 the school earned ISO 9001-2000 certification, and in 2005 launched the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program through Stella Maris International School at Cluster Vatikan, Gading Serpong, with a 2007 expansion to Preschool, Primary, Secondary Junior and IB Diploma plus an Entrepreneurship program across BSD and Gading Serpong.
