“…The mission of Catholic schools is linked to the evangelizing thrust of the Church in proclaiming Christ to the world to transform society. However, most Catholic institutions nowadays are confronted with issues on the deterioration of values, migration of qualified teachers to public schools, and decline in enrolment, posing threats to the Catholic identity and mission, operational sustainability, and quality of teaching and learning (Bual & Madrigal, 2018;Madrigal & Oracion, 2019). To address these problems, the Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines (CEAP) developed the Philippine Catholic Schools Standards (PCSS) to help these schools in the country revisit and re-examine their institutional practices according to the identity and mission of the Catholic Church.…”

The mission of Catholic schools is linked to the evangelizing thrust of the Church in proclaiming Christ to the world to transform society. However, most Catholic institutions nowadays are confronted with issues on the deterioration of values, migration of qualified teachers to public schools, and decline in enrolment, posing threats to the Catholic identity and mission, operational sustainability, and quality of teaching and learning. To address these problems, the Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines (CEAP) developed the Philippine Catholic Schools Standards (PCSS) to help these schools in the country revisit and re-examine their institutional practices according to the identity and mission of the Catholic Church. Hence, this paper assessed the quality of Catholic education of diocesan schools in the Province of Antique in the light of Catholic identity and mission, leadership and governance, learner development, learning environment, and operational vitality domains of PCSS. Also, it sought to find out whether a significant relationship exists between the age, sex, length of service, and designation of assessors and their quality assessment on Catholic education.

“…Truly, it is fortunate for Catholic schools to have dedicated teachers and staff who are guided by a Gospel-centered spirituality, providing service generously without so much considering the financial reward for their labor [10]. Schools can accomplish what is expected of them as Catholic learning institutions when they have dedicated and committed personnel [19]. On the other hand, the participants are aware that the school's evangelizing mission has not yet fully permeated all the university members.…”

One unique function of a Catholic school is developing a campus-based Christian community and nurturing the Christian life of the members of the academe. The Church stresses its importance in the task of evangelization. Hence, this phenomenological study intended to explore the lived experiences of the permanent employees on the evangelizing mission of a Catholic university. Through a purposive sampling method, the data were gathered from five participants through a semi-structured in-depth interview. The data were analyzed using recursive textual analysis adopting the framework of Lichtman's 3C's. The findings of the study revealed that the evangelizing mission of the university through its religious and outreach activities helped the employees have a more meaningful life, enriched and deepened their faith, and strengthened their relationship with God, the Church, and the members of the institution. They also considered their work as part of the evangelizing mission of the school. In addition, the witnessing of the religious administrators and the visible community life in the university inspired and encouraged them to share in the task of evangelization. Generally, the findings suggest a semblance in the employees' experience and the true identity and mission of Catholic schools highlighted by the Church. This charge is a lifelong challenge for all Catholic institutions to carry out.

“…Thus, it is necessary to ensure the sustainability of the Catholic schools to advance the mission and the formation (Haney, 2013).However, most Catholic schools are confronted with issues that threaten their evangelical mission and operational sustainability (Bual & Madrigal, 2018). These include the deterioration of values brought by the secularistic, consumeristic, and modernistic mindsets, compartmentalizing the members' faith and life (CEAP, 2016;Madrigal & Oracion, 2019). Further, the quality of instruction is also compromised by the exodus of qualified and committed teachers to public schools (Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines [CBCP], 2012; CEAP, 2016).…”

“…These standards serve as the basis for these Catholic schools to revisit and reexamine their institutional practices to improve their operational viability vis-à-vis the offering of quality of Catholic education (Bual & Madrigal, 2018). Further, the PCSS contains the defining characteristics, domains, standards, and indicators that will help them reexamine the alignment of their operations with the principles and directions of the Church along with their adherence to global standards (CEAP, 2016;Madrigal & Oracion, 2019).Meanwhile, there were studies conducted on Catholic education in the Philippines: a qualitative study on the teachers' experiences on Catholic education (Madrigal & Oracion, 2018), on the preferential option for the poor in Catholic education (Gutierrez, 2009), on critical thinking and Catholic religious education (Go, 2018), and on quality of Catholic education in the light of PCSS standards in a diocesan school (Bual & Madrigal, 2018) and religious schools (Madrigal & Oracion,…”

Catholic education is linked to the Church's evangelical mission. However, Catholic schools are confronted with the deterioration of values, teacher turnover, and decline in enrolment, posing threats to their mission and operation (Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines [CEAP], 2016). Hence, this assessed the quality of Catholic education of Antique diocesan schools using the Philippine Catholic Schools Standards (PCSS). Further, it identified areas for continuous improvement in the Catholic school operation. It also correlated the respondents’ age, sex, length of service, and designation with the quality assessment. With the descriptive-correlational design, the 120 school personnel responded through a standardized PCSS questionnaire. Generally, the assessment was rated “fully meets benchmark” with Catholic identity and mission as the highest and operational vitality as the lowest. The correlation showed no relationship between the age, sex, and length of service with the quality assessment while little if any relationship with the designation. Accordingly, the quality of Catholic education is attained through continuous adherence to the standards. With this, stakeholders’ collaboration is necessary.
