PAREF-Southridge School Details
PAREF Southridge School for Boys in Alabang, Muntinlupa City is a private school that offers primary, intermediate, and secondary education for boys. The school was founded in 1979 by the Parents For Education Foundation Inc., a non-profit foundation formed by a group of parents who envisioned a group of schools that would offer values-based formation during the formative years of children. The parents behind PAREF were inspired by the teachings of St. Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei, that only by having well-formed parents and teachers can the school have students of the right quality and virtue.Southridge began its operations on July 16, 1979 with one hundred students and twenty teachers and administrative staff and with only one two-story building and virtually no sports facilities. The only place the students can run around and play in was 3 hectares of cogon grass infested with mosquitoes and snakes. From these humble beginnings would come one of the most prestigious learning institutions in the Philippines, acknowledged by the columnist Monique Villonco as one of the country's bastions of classical education.To date, Southridge has 1,100 students from Grade 1 to Year V being mentored by 120 teachers. The school likewise employs an additional 36 people in its administrative staff. In its 37 years of existence, Southridge has continuously produced students and alumni who have reaped remarkable accomplishments in various fields like sports, academics, culture, the arts, business, and politics. From just one building in 1979, the school has developed its three-hectare campus into a world-class facility with two academic buildings, a beautiful chapel, a state-of-the-art auditorium, a two-story cafeteria building, an administration building, and professional-level sports facilities.
