50
Years of Excellence
1975
The Humble Beginning
Established in 1975 by Dr. Josefina V. Suarez and Francisco B. Alido, Sr., Elizabeth Seton School began as a humble preschool in Bacoor, Cavite, with just 34 students. Guided by the spirit of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, the school was a family endeavor dedicated to quality education.
1987 - 1989
Growth and Faith
After expanding through four locations, the school established its permanent home in BF Resort Village, Las Piñas, in 1987. Shortly after, it cemented its identity as a Catholic institution, marked by the 1989 blessing of the school chapel by His Eminence Jaime Cardinal Sin.
1998
Expanding Horizons
With a steady number of learners coming from the Cavite area, the school’s management team decided to build a new campus in Anabu II-D, Imus Cavite. On June 1998, Elizabeth Seton School-Cavite opened its doors and welcomed a new batch of Setonians. The Cavite campus instantly became the preferred learning institution for families within Cavite
2013 - 2015
A New Era & 40 Years
In 2013, Dr. Roberto T. Borromeo succeeded Dr. Suarez as the school’s second President. Under his leadership, the school has embraced the future, implementing technology-based curricula and a culture of continuous learning.
In 2015, the school celebrated its 40th anniversary with the theme “40tude is an Attitude.” Highlights included a record-breaking donation to the Philippine National Red Cross through the “Dugtong Buhay” program and a grand production at the Solaire Theater featuring over 1,000 students.
2020 - 2025
Resilience & Golden Jubilee
In the middle of the pandemic, Elizabeth Seton School, Las Piñas and Cavite Campuses became the only Level 3 PAASCU Accredited schools in the Las Piñas and Cavite areas.
In 2025, the school turns half a century strong. As part of its celebration, the school breaks its own blood donation record to the Philippine National Red Cross and returns to perform at the Solaire Theater with an even larger cast of over 1,300 performers with the theme “This is Where it Begins.”
