Driving What’s Next:
We reach for everything we want – from data, memories, stories, and more – with the touch of our fingertips. We connect, transact, create, and curate, all through the power of technology and the Internet, the tool that has forever changed the world as we know it.
These realities impact education today. De La Salle Lipa rode these “waves” with the hope of rousing students, partners, and society to become change agents. Innovation, in this sense, has captivated Lasallians to become the best versions of themselves – hence the call to continue providing platforms that “unleash possibilities.” Possibilities that pave the way towards infinite opportunities.
As we face and try these opportunities, we call to mind the human touch. We believe in the power of touching hearts. We never lose contact with our “being”. At the end of the day, we look at our individual aspirations, come together with our common mission, and gear for the greater good.
From the
PRESIDENT
What would the next 100 years be like? How are our educational institutions addressing the future. What kind of education do we want to see in the 21st century as our communities evolve? As our world evolve?
When we talk about 21st century education, we are talking of revisiting our mission – what is the role of the school in the development of individuals, and, in a larger sense – the development of the world.
We have to continue to engage with our people. As we move forward, we grow in this together and we have to see how we help each other. As we move forward and grow, everybody grows together and nobody is left behind.
We want to see an inclusive growth as we progress, we will be able to bring them together (in that growth) – as a result of that direction – and no school has done this – we put up an across-the-board PhP 55 Million Pesos increase in salaries and compensation, in total. This is not about money, this is about taking care of people and bringing people to a level where they need not to worry about the economics – but rather to concentrate on the work that God has asked us to do.
We are providing good health services. Now we have an ambulance, a dedicated Emergency Medical Team (EMT), but these are just steps towards a holistic approach to creating a smart campus, to creating a campus that is livable, that is safe and secured.
We cannot grow at the expense of the planet. When we talk of inclusive societies, we have to talk of sustainable societies.
When we hinge our directions to the (United Nations) Sustainable Development Goals, we indicate that we are part of this greater world, and, our mission is not apart from the rest of the world, from the rest of humanity, from the rest of the planet.
When we changed our Mission Statement, and when we deliberately adopted the sustainable development goals, I think we have adopted universal values. These are values we know appeal to other people. This not just about cosmetic change. This is about really our commitment to do the work of God and build the kingdom of God.
There are many who share this mission. There are many who share in the belief that education is the great equalizer. And hopefully, as we move forward, many will join in this quest to make our schools like what De La Salle dreamt: where our children live in a world that is safe, inclusive, where growth is inclusive, where the planet is taken cared of, and, where future generations are regarded in the decisions we make today.

Social Innovation
in Quality Education
The power to see things differently
Seeing things differently entails empathy. With a good grasp of various perspectives, we transform learning and drive relevant 21st century learning.
We also delve onto real-world concerns to reimagine real-world solutions. In doing so, we are able to offer human and student-centric programs.
Having witnessed the education scene transform through the years, De La Salle Lipa highly regards 21st century learning and skills, to include social innovation. Social innovation, new ideas (products, models, and services) simultaneously meeting social needs and creating new collaborations, render a huge part in the transformation and acceleration of education, as well as the preparation of students to become entrepreneurs and social innovators. We envision students becoming more equipped for the future – with the best tools, techniques, and systems readily available.
We hope to make a difference in the lives of our 21st century learners. Guided by our Mission-Vision, we are now integrating social innovation fundamentals in the curriculum – design thinking, futures thinking, project management, sustainability, social impact, stakeholder engagement, social entrepreneurship, and global issues – in the hopes of arming students to become highly competitive on a global scale and to become a valuable resource to their respective communities.
We envision students becoming more equipped for the future – with the best tools, techniques, and systems readily available.
Shared Humanity
The passion to build safer world
Our desire to nourish a safer and more secure second home for our partners and other stakeholders is ablaze.
We nurture each individual entrusted to our care. With inclusivity in mind, we encourage brotherhood. Each one matters.
No one is left behind.
The world keeps on changing by the minute. Individuals, families, and communities face various challenges – from poverty, hunger, unemployment, and more. Income inequality is rampant, especially in the Philippines, together with China, Indonesia, India, and the Russian Federation. With over 400 million people in Asia (one in ten) going through extreme income poverty, it takes intense passion and commitment to be an instrument of change in these people’s lives.
De La Salle Lipa takes on this challenge: to become focal in crafting solutions and applying these measures to heart.

Sustainable Futures
The ability to listen to planet
As we aspire to understand our planet more, we continue listening to its pleas. Knowing that we have a vital part in ensuring our home’s survival, we strive to keep it safe.
We commit to being stewards of God’s creations. We vow to pursue a legacy protecting every treasure that abounds the earth.
A daring call, yes – our answer to the world’s desperate cries.
How do we listen to our planet? Do we seek to understand its pleas for help? How sensitive are we to her needs? These are just some questions we have in mind as we ponder on our planet’s situation and life in all forms.
At De La Salle Lipa, we take the littlest matters to heart: from our sustainability partnerships, sustainable power source, PET bottle haul-out, and more. We hope that through these simple ways, we can uplift the communities we support – being agents of change for society’s betterment.

Stakeholder Engagement
The courage to speak in one voice
We enjoin our community and nation to speak in one voice. With a common vision and spirit, we aspire for the well-being of society.
Uplifting morale and recognizing diversity, we continue propagating our mission of transforming society.
Believing in the power of solidarity and communion, we stand firm to this calling. All these, we do with passion and dedication for the next generation.
We are part of a larger community in need of deeper understanding and compassion. With the diversity of various sectors in society, we have seen and felt the need for solidarity in attaining our common vision and spirit: to take care of individuals’ wellness, welfare, and well-being.
Committed to this cause, De La Salle Lipa strives to continue its advocacy of addressing human development issues affecting the nation and the world. We are one with our fellow citizens in sharing their craftsmanship to uplift hearts, minds, and souls.

Financial Report
De La Salle Lipa’s financial position and results of operation are best shown through the audited financial statement certified by our External Auditors, Isla Lipana, and Co.
The School’s operation for the School Year 2017 – 2018 resulted in an excess of income over school expenses before tax of negative Php 26 million and Php 155 million from unrestricted and temporarily restricted activities, respectively.
A drop from last year’s Php 85 million total excess can be attributed to the decrease in revenue due to the impact of the K-12 program.
Operating activities generated Php 199 million due to movements in working capital which was used in investing activities of Php 165.08 million as an addition to fixed assets. Cash generated from investing activities can be attributed to the Php 44.44 million loan proceeds from local bank to finance the Digital Campus Initiatives.
