The Maroon Bars and the Crossare historically the color that identifies the participation and support of the Bishop of Barcelona during the foundation of the Order of Mercy by its founder St. Peter Nolasco.
The Cross also symbolizes the Christian character of the school that upholds the value of Jesus Christ, the Redeemer.
The Earthen Base of the Flamesymbolizes the Filipino for whom the Mercedarian Education in the Philippines came to birth. Above this earthen base is the torch that takes its flame from Jesus Christ, the Redeemer. The flame is to bring light to all who are enslaved by ignorance, power, money, prestige and the likes.
The Broken Chain that Embraces the Bars symbolizes freedom from slavery; the identifying mark of the Mercedarian Order as inspired by Mary, Our Lady of Mercy. It indicates the commitment of the school to the liberation of all people through education, and to permeate the redemptive spirit of Jesus Christ in the integral formation of the person.
