The STEFTI Logo
The STEFTI logo is depicted by a red rose near a flame amidst a background of blue.
St. Therese promised: “After my death, I will let fall a shower of roses”. The rose represents all her acts of love, done in her “little way”. This is the spirituality of St. Therese of the Child Jesus. This, too, is the reason why the school is named after St. Therese. We believe that holiness is within the reach of every man, woman, and child as they offer the daily ordinary tasks lovingly to the Lord.
The flame stands for the fire of the Holy Spirit whose guidance and inspiration we humbly pray for, as well as the light of knowledge. Through our academic programs may we in our own small way help to dispel the darkness of ignorance.
The green leaf is a symbol of ever-growing life. We pray that the school will always be receptive to ideas and fresh innovations.
The blue background stands for heaven - our ultimate goal. May heaven smile kindly on our efforts.
