SFACS is a sister school of the
Seattle Central Community College (SCCC) inSeattle, Washington ,United States .History
Saint Francis of Assisi College System was established on
1981 , when the husband and wife team Mr. and Mrs. Arturo and Evangeline Orosco, opened a two classroom preparatory school in Talon, Las Piñas City, Metro Manila, to provide quality education for the young children. By 1983, the school's popularity was such that a two-storey, full elementary school building had to be constructed to meet the surrounding community needs. The opening of the high school department quickly followed in 1986, assuring placements for SFACS graduates in the secondary level. At the same time, two new campuses were established, one inTaguig City , and one inLos Baños, Laguna . In 1989, the tertiary level in SFACS came into being offering several courses both in degree and non-degree programs. New campuses have since been added: the Bacoor, Cavite campus in 1994, and the Ilaya, Alabang, Metro Manila campus in 1996. In the same year in 1996, Saint Anthony School of Las Piñas City came under SFACS supervision and management. The newest campus in Dasmariñas, Cavite opened this school year 1999-2000.Campuses
