Kiltepan Sunrise, Sagada,
St. Mary’s School of Sagada Alumni and Friends Foundation, Inc.
(SMSSAFF, Inc.)
This
5-year
plan
was
envisioned
and
implemented
in
November
2004
by
Dr.
Dennis
Faustino,
SMSSI’s
head
master,
with
the
support
of
the
Board
of
Trustees.
It
was
an
ambitious
plan—to
resuscitate
a
dying
institution
and
bring
it
back
to
the
level
of
excellence
it
once
enjoyed
in
the
past.
It
was
ambitious
because
the
plan
included
major
changes
affecting
all
the
systems
inherent
in
an
educational
institution—from
the
curriculum
to
instructional
practices
and
methodologies,
from
teaching
resources
to
infrastructure
support,
from
finance
to
basic
core
beliefs
and
philosophies
on
what
SMS
should
be.
It
was
also
ambitious
because
things
needed
to
be
done
within
five
years,
to
show
results
in
order
to
win
back
the
school’s
credibility,
and
sustain
the
faith
of
parents
who
had
sent
their
children
here
and
of
individuals
and
corporate
friends
who
had
no
personal
connection
to
the
school,
yet
have
given
selflessly
because
of
a dream. Read the entire 1st 5-Year Development Plan
