Departments

[edit]

Elementary Department[4]

[edit]

The Basic Education School - Laboratory Elementary Department (SLU BEdS - Elementary Department) is an elementary school that is a part of Saint Louis University. It was founded in 1911 and had been offering a range of classes from Kindergarten to Sixth Grade to students in the local community since 1915. The school is located on the Gonzaga Campus of Saint Louis University, named after Saint Aloysius de Gonzaga, a Jesuit saint known for his work with young people and his dedication to education.

Over the years, the Elementary Department has grown and developed, offering education to students in the local community.[5]

Junior High Department[3]

[edit]

The Junior High Department of Saint Louis University is a coeducational school for students at the junior high level. It was originally established in 1921 as the Saint Louis University Boys' High School and was only for male students. The school's first graduates completed their studies in 1929. In 2003, the school became coeducational, accepting male and female students.

The Junior High Department is located at the Navy Base campus, along with the Senior High Department. The two departments were formerly separately administered but are now unified due to the merging of the Elementary and High School departments. This separation was implemented following the implementation of the K-12 program in the Philippines, which added two years to the country's basic education system.

As a coeducational junior high school, the Junior High Department at SLU offers various academic and extracurricular programs and activities to help students grow and learn.

Senior High Department[2]

Campus Ministry

[edit]

Saint Louis University is a Catholic institution guided by the mission of spreading the message of God through love and service to others. Within the university, the Office of the Vice President for Mission and Identity is responsible for ensuring that the university stays true to its mission. The university also has a Campus Ministry that focuses on helping people grow in their faith and have a deeper relationship with Jesus.

The CICM Campus Ministry focuses on Christian formation, which means helping people at the university grow in their faith and have a deeper relationship with Jesus. The Campus Ministry is responsible for three main areas: the Ministry of the Word, which includes evangelization, catechesis (teaching about the Christian faith), guidance, and education; the Ministry of worship; and the Ministry of healing. Another goal of the Campus Ministry is to create a "living encounter with Jesus" on campus through these different ministries. The Campus Ministry works to achieve this goal by collaborating with school administrators, faculty, students, and other stakeholders and by following the guidance of the Office of the Vice President for Mission and Identity. The Campus Ministry also plans and leads activities throughout the year to help people at the university grow in their faith and live out Christian values.
