Ateneo Grade School: An All-Boys School Providing a Jesuit Education in QC
Ateneo Grade School (AGS) manages the basic education program of Ateneo de Manila University. The exclusive Catholic school has been open for boys since 1859.
It has programs based on Jesuit education with a philosophy of being a “man for others.” Its strategically located school buildings and facilities in Quezon City helps make a safe and peaceful atmosphere for its students.
AGS provides a well-balanced type of education that nurtures its students to be academically competent. At the same time, AGS focuses on forming the Christian values of the youth to become leaders in the service of God. The school abides by the K-12 curriculum which is the standard that is being implemented now in the country.
Ateneo Grade School offers eight grade levels that are divided into two areas: primary school (Prep to Grade 3) and middle school (Grade 4 to Grade 7). The core of its academic program is the Christian Life Education (CLE) which aims to develop a deeper understanding of the word of God. It has three general objectives: doctrine, morals, and worship or DMW.
