In 1910 the Augustinian Sisters took over the administration, incorporated the school, and on October 9, 1910, inaugurated it as the Colegio de la Sagrada Familia. Upon the request of the Archbishop of Manila, the administration of the school passed on into the hands of the Benedictine Sisters in 1922.
