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:
“Last night I fled until I came
To streets where leaking casements dripped
Stale lamplight from the corpse of flame;
A nervous window bled.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

St. Paul’s words were used by William Blake as an epigraph to The Four Zoas (c. 1800)
“While most of today’s jobs do not require great intelligence, they do require greater frustration tolerance, personal discipline, organization, management, and interpersonal skills than were required two decades and more ago. These are precisely the skills that many of the young people who are staying in school today, as opposed to two decades ago, lack.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
