Introduction

Assumption College San Lorenzo is an all-girls private Catholic school located in the gated San Lorenzo Village of Makati City. Established in 1958, the school provides a basic education framework alongside tertiary degrees, emphasizing active community engagement through its Center for Social Involvement. Students from Grade 1 to 12 participate in regular service immersions, partnering with local farmers and marginalized communities. The campus features neo-Gothic-inspired arcades and manicured gardens. A distinctly recognizable tradition is the instruction of the "Assumption Script," a precise cursive penmanship with sharp, elongated points that students learn and carry through adulthood. The school is also known for its annual "velada," a massive homecoming event where alumnae return to perform and fundraise for mission schools. In addition to core subjects, the curriculum requires Christian Life Education and offers specialized tracks in the Senior High School and Higher Education divisions.
