From humble beginnings to continuous growth

Our Lady of Perpetual Succor School came as a vision to a couple from Laoag City, Dionisio Alonzo Salvador, Sr. and wife Carmen Caday Salvador who found home in Marikina in the early 70’s. It was a vision born in response to the need for more schools to accommodate the increasing number of school children in the area at that time. It was also an act of thanksgiving and of sharing their blessings from the success of their initial business ventures as a couple.
