USI Night High School

The USI Night High School (USI-NHS) is an independent branch of the Basic Education Department of Universidad de Sta. Isabel that caters a five year Secondary Level Education (or High School) to specifically less-privileged girls or women who works during the day, so that they could study or finish High School after working hours.

The USI-NHS Secondary Education Curriculum has been reengineered to give more emphasis to Technology and Livelihood Education, in anticipation of the great percentage of its graduates who can't afford College Education as they are less-privileged or belonging to less-privileged families.

In spite of the students' being less-privileged, they are encouraged to live up to the Vincentian doctrines inculcated by the university, where "service to the poor, is service to God". For being educated in, or a graduate of the Universidad de Sta. Isabel is already a privilege (grace) given by God, therefore they too should extend God's grace to others who are also less-privileged, and the poorest of the poor.

Famous quotes containing the words night, high and/or school:

    “I would rather be known as an advocate of equal suffrage than to speak every night on the best-paying platforms in the United States and ignore it.”
    —Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    “This is of the loon—I do not mean its laugh, but its looning,—is a long-drawn call, as it were, sometimes singularly human to my ear,—hoo-hoo-ooooo, like the hallooing of a man on a very high key, having thrown his voice into his head. I have heard a sound exactly like it when breathing heavily through my own nostrils, half awake at ten at night, suggesting my affinity to the loon; as if its language were but a dialect of my own, after all.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “And this school wasn’t keeping anymore,
    Unless for penitents who took their seat
    Upon its doorsteps as at mercy’s feet
    To make up for a lack of meditation.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
