Design : The centennial stamp shows a replica of the facade of the original building constructed nearly a hundred years ago.  The entire building and additional structures constructed through the years before 1941 were completely destroyed by incendiary bombs during the liberation of Manila.  A sense of history prompted the superiors of St. Scholastica's College to have a true re-construction of the main building.

Two features characterize the building: its stark simplicity and the three rounded arches that announce a welcome.  The three arches are a symbol of the Trinity in Unity and the Unity in Three - the core for Whom the school exists and towards Whom all in it leads.

The facade is completely bare except for the seal at the center, which bears the Greek initials of Jesus Christ, the One in Three.  It speaks of the singleness of purpose: honor and glory for Him in all endeavours within its walls and beyond - within this century and onwards in time.
