Concordia College (Manila)
The Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion de la Concordia, simply Concordia College is a Catholic school institution of learning located in Pedro Gil, Paco, Manila, in the Philippines. The college was founded in 1868 and is run by Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul. Concordia College prospered towards the end of the nineteenth century with an upward enrollment. Among its well-known students was Maria Paz Mendoza-Guazon, the first Filipino woman doctor, who was also an educator, a writer and a feminist. Although her studies at the college were interrupted by the Revolution, she was able to resume her studies until she transferred to the American School in 1901. Other notable students were Saturmina, Soledad and Olympia, sisters of Philippine National Hero, Jose Rizal, and his two loves - Segunda Katigbak and Leonor Rivera - the latter immortalized in his novelas as Maria Clara. The college is even mentioned in Rizal's novel Noli Me Tangere.
==History==
Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion de la Concordia was established by Doña Margarita Roxas de Ayala by converting her three-and-a-half hectare villa, the La Concordia Estate in Paco, Manila, into a school. She requested for eight Daughters of Charity from Spain to come over to the Philippines to manage the school. They arrived on May 3, 1868 and managed the free school or 'Escuela Pia'. Sixty students learned about religion, good manners, reading and writing, simple arithmetic, culture and arts like sewing, embroidery, cooking, needlecraft and household work. The medium of the instruction was Spanish.
In 1868, the school officially adapted a new name, Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion de la Concordia, on the same year that it became the Central House of the Daughters of Charity in the Philippines.
However, significant periods in the development of the Concordia College, such as the Philippine Revolution of 1896 and the American era, to name a few, brought about educational reforms as can be seen in the following historical dates.
