Woodrose School is the very first school established by PAREF, a non-stock, non-profit organization of parents who want to be fully involved in providing their children a Christian education. It started operations at a large, two-story house located at the corner of 10th and Gilmore Streets in New Manila, Quezon City in June of 1977 with 76 students ranging from Grades 1 to 5. A higher level was added each school year until the first senior class in high school graduated in 1984.
