NEW LOGO OF SAINT MICHAEL COLLEGE OF CARAGA
After 59 years of existence, Saint Michael College of Caraga (SMCC) formerly Saint Michael Institute (SMI), decided to redesign its logo that is more relevant to its avowed and newly revisited vision and mission statement.
The Symbols:
SHIELD
The sield symbolizes the tool which our patron saint, Saint Michael de Archangel, is holding. It denotes strength, courage, supernatural force, brilliant spirit with a noble purpose of protecting the Michelinian family.
The edge of the shield is made up of metal which signifies eternal strength that holds the entire shield itself which represents the institution, keeping it firm and secure in its governance and management.
TORCH
The torch symbolizes Christ as the Light of the World. As a Christian center of learning, SMCC lives on Christ, who is its light and center of everything.
BOOK
The book symbolizes knowledge. The text in the book: 'For God, For Man and Country', represents the holistic training the school commits itself to its student and what it aims for them to be.
LAUREAL LEAF
The laureal leaf represents wisdom, authority and the success in SMCC's endeavors.
OPEN HAND WITH THE SUN
The open hand with the sun is the Magbayanihan Tayo Vision 2020 logo with the vision of institutionalized development that is globally competitive, providing culture of excellence in the areas of spiritual formation, instruction, production, extension, and research.
RIVER WITH CORN
This is the official logo of the Diocese of Butuan. Its inclusion signifies that SMCC is a part and an educational arm of the Diocese to carry out its mission of evangelization.
STRIPS
The strips symbolize flexibility and dynamism of the Michaelnians. The upper strip has the name of the school and the lower strip bears the school motto capsulized in the latin phrase 'Lux Mundi, Sal Terrae' which means 'Light of the World, Salt of the Earth' that signifies the core values of the school. The lower strip at the center also bears the year 1948, the founding year of the school.

I' am a Michaelinian and as a Grade 9th student in St. Cyril, I really find your blog very, very helpful and it's important that students especially from SMCC know the meaning of its logo. I just want to share my thought and again, thank you for this blog.
