Junior High Questions,
Answered Straight

What happens after Grade 10? We take your child through Grade 10, then prepare and endorse them for Senior High School. We believe sixteen is a far better age to change schools than twelve — a Grade 10 graduate is more independent, more formed in character, and ready to choose an SHS strand that matches their real direction. Grade 10 at Eastbridge is explicitly designed as a launching year.

Is your junior high DepEd-permitted? Yes. Our Grades 7–8 operate under DepEd Government Permit S-571, issued by Region IV-A CALABARZON. Each new grade level opens with DepEd authorization. You are welcome to view our permits when you visit.

Which high school grades are open right now? We are building our junior high one grade level at a time, on purpose — each batch gets our full attention as we grow. Grades 7 and 8 are open today. Grade 9 opens in SY 2027–2028, and Grade 10 in SY 2028–2029.

Will my teenager have a full social life at Eastbridge? Yes — and a meaningful one. Eastbridge junior high students lead in the Purple Vanguard, serve through the Light & Salt Society, and compete against much bigger schools in academics, sports, and the arts — and hold their own. With classes capped at 30, and most with fewer than 25, no one hides in the back row: every student is known, stretched, and given real responsibility.

What is the LIFE Program? Beginning SY 2027–2028, LIFE (Leadership, Integrity, Faith, Excellence) will be a formal subject in character and resilience for Grades 7–10 — on the timetable, with its own teacher. Read about the LIFE Program here.

Do you accept transferees? Yes — into Grades 7 and 8 now, and into Grade 9 when it opens in SY 2027–2028. Transferees settle in quickly here, because a new student is known by name from day one. Book a visit or message us and we'll walk you through the requirements for your child's grade level.

How do you prepare students for Senior High entrance? The same way we've prepared graduates for fourteen years: mastery-based mathematics, strong communicative literacy, and consistent competition experience. Eastbridge graduates have earned places in science high schools and respected private institutions — and our Grade 10 year is built around readying students to cross well.

Will Eastbridge ever offer Grade 11? Our commitment today is Nursery through Grade 10, done excellently. If that ever changes, our families will hear it from us first — honestly and early.
