St. Mary's College, Quezon City
St. Mary’s College, Quezon City is one of the oldest, native institutions offering formal education for girls in the Philippines. Its history is closely linked with the history of the Beaterio de la Compania de Jesus, now known as the Congregation of the Religious of the Virgin Mary (RVM). This group of native religious women was founded in 1684 by Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo, an Yndia-Chinese mestiza from Binondo. Since 1684, the foundational community of Mother Ignacia lived in the Casa Madre, Intramuros. These Beatas de la Compania de Jesus, as they were popularly called, took steps in educating young girls. They opened a boarding school for girls which became known as the Colegio del Beaterio. This marked the first step towards formal education for the school. The Colegio del Beaterio was open to Yndias and Chinese mestizas as well as Creoles (Spanish mestizas) and pure Spanish girls.

The legacy of leaders continues
History should always be perceived as an inspiration, discerned as a solution, and cognized as a key to any future. It should be written as a philosophy, read as a discipline, and lived as a way of life. Most of all, history should always remind people of what they are today and who they can be tomorrow.
