History

In 1942, Mother Alice de St. Paul Huchery, the Provincial Superior, assigned Sr. Marie Catherine Pimentel, SPC, Sr. Eugene Lourdes Santiago, SPC, and Sr. Marie Clotilde of the Cross Andes, SPC, to open a school near the Saints Peter and Paul Parish Church at the request of the parish priest, Father Lazaro Ochuga, SSP.

In 1947, the school received the apostolic blessing of Pope Pius XII

In 1948, it received recognition from the Bureau of Education and was officially known as Makati Catholic School.

In 1976, its name was changed into Saint Paul School of Makati upon the approval of the Department of Education, Culture, and Sports (DECS).

In 2002, its name was again changed into Saint Paul College of Makati (its present name) upon the approval of the Department of Education (DepEd).

In 2008, "Genyo," an interactive learning portal developed by Diwa Superior Learning Experience, Inc. (DSLE), was adopted for the school's online learning tool to address the learning needs of the young generation of Paulinians.

Currently, the school holds a Level I Accreditance from the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges, and Universities (PAASCU) and the Federation of Accrediting Agencies of the Philippines (FAAP).
