The Holy Cross College of Calinan (HCCC) is a Catholic institution of learning in Calinan, Davao City, Philippines. It is administered by the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary.
History
The college was established in June 1948 as a high school institution. In 1958, the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary, a Catholic congregation, took over the management of the school. The growth of the school population forced the establishment of the college department in 1964, and offered the four-year course in Education, Liberal Arts and Commerce with an initial enrolment of 68 students.[2][3]
In 1967-1968, the first college enrolees were ready to graduate from the four-year course in the college department. There were a total of 37 graduates for that year.[4]
In 1989-1900, the HCCC added Nursing Aide for protection, General Electronics, and Practical Electricity.[5]
