Our first choice of school has always been Stella Maris Academy of Malolos, Inc. Our child began her Nursery years in this institution and they’ve continuously proven that we made the right decision for her. She loves going to school, adores her teachers, and looks forward to always seeing her classmates on a daily basis. This speaks a lot to us as parents as we’ve noted how important it is for our child to like, if not love, the school and its environment that she’s in. So since the beginning of the pandemic last March 2020, we still chose to trust SMA to continue facilitating our daughter’s holistic and educational well-being by having her join the Synchronous type of learning. We were surprised that although online learning wasn’t much of a trend in Malolos, they’ve managed to plan a very compelling approach on how it is best done for the students by utilizing Quipper and Zoom to help the process become more seamless. Adjustments were there, of course, but it wasn’t much of a hurdle, so to speak, as our child adapted almost naturally to the new system.
SMA has chosen to be more welcoming and very understanding of every child’s needs. It is shown on how the teachers handle every student’s query during and outside class sessions, on how they would always communicate with the parents and seek their thoughts on matters, and most importantly, on how they draw their decisions around the fact that would work best for everyone.
