"Through quality Education, we are building a better nation"
This line inspired the founders of Golden Faith Academy to put up an educational institution that would nurture the minds and hearts of young people towards love of God, Country, and family.
Golden Faith Academy was founded In 1998 by a couple who has a great passion in education. Mrs. Nenita F. Cao is an educator by profession and Atty. Carlos S. Cao Jr. is a lawyer, a college professor, a human resource practitioner, and a public servant, working as Undersecretary of Labor/ Administrator of the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration.
In 1998, the school was started in a bungalow house of the couple located at Mt. Arayat Rd. Montevista Heights Subdivision, Taytay, Rizal. There were 28 pupils who composed the first batch of the preschool department. The first teacher was Ms. Clavel Awit and her teacher Assistant was Ms. Lorena Doblado.
In 2000 GFA started the grade school level with Ms. Noemi Mirabete as the First Grade 1/Elementary teacher with 20 pupils as the first batch of Grade 1 Class.
In 2003, GFA was able to acquire 2 adjacent lots from the school, and the 3-storey Elementary Building was constructed to house its fast-growing student population
In 2008, the GFA Special Education Department was established with Mrs. Elma Ruth as the first SPED Coordinator. it was housed in a bungalow that was purchased from the school neighbor.
In 2010-2011, GFA once again acquired 3 adjacent lots in Mt. Banahaw Road where a 4 storey building for the High school Department was constructed. The newly constructed GFA Extension Building has become a home to the first batch of High School Classes with 30 first-year and 13 Second year students as pioneers. Mrs. Lina Mie Gervantecio serves as the first High School coordinator and concurrently Acting Principal for the school.
