LSU Philosophy of Education

As Filipino Lasallian educators we believe that:

1. the primary aim of La Salle University is the Christian and Lasallian formation of its students.


2. a relevant academic program is designed to prepare the students who are unique and special expression of God’s love for responsible citizenship and effective leadership.


3. to educate is to teach minds, touch hearts, and transform lives; hence education is primarily a dialogue of relationships.


4. a genuine Filipino education focuses on upholding all that is life-giving in our culture and ensures that the Gospel renews and enriches our cultural heritage.


5. education is to promote responsible autonomy and self– direction by engaging in school life suited to their level of development and maturity.


6. education is a mastery of skills, the acquisition of habits, and the cultivation of virtues.
