Core Values
Faith In God
Claretines uphold faith and trust in a Higher Power to whom they belong and in whose love they live, move, and have their being. A loving, authentic, and creative faith permeates their life choices.
Integrity
Claretines resolve to be truthful to their inner goodness and beauty, and strive to be men and women of integrity. They reject thoughts, words, and actions that may compromise their own integrity, the integrity of their alma mater as well as of humanity in general.
Peace
Claretines commit themselves to working for peace within themselves, in their families, communities, nation, and the world at large. They promise to place their education at the service of peacemaking. “Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God” (Matt).
Cooperation
Claretines strive to work together with other stakeholders in order to realize the goals of education as well as the creation of a civilization of love. They supplement healthy competition with mutually enhancing and productive collaboration for the benefit of all.
Personal Competence
Claretines pledge to improve their own personal competencies, gratefully building upon God-given talents and abilities.. They recognize that each individual can and must take personal responsibility to build up one’s competence in order to make effective contribution to society.
Founding Society
Saint Claret College is owned and served by the Claretian Formation Association of North East India, a registered charitable society (S/R CLAONEI-531/88 of 1988) of the North East Independent Delegation of Claretian Missionaries.
The Order of Claretian Missionaries (also called the Missionary Sons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary—CordisMariaeFilii) was founded by Saint Anthony Mary Claret on July 16, 1849 in Spain. Currently headquartered in Rome, the Order has 3000+ Claretians serving in 64 countries. Fired by love for God and humanity, they serve the pastoral, spiritual, socio-cultural and educational needs of the people, especially those on the margins of the society.
In India, there are over 600 Claretians ministering in 16 states. They serve the poor and the marginalized through pastoral and spiritual care, formal and non-formal educational programs, care for the leprosy-affected, drug addicts, AIDS patients, ex-prisoners, the blind, the differentially abled, tribals and dalits. They run more than 30 educational institutions which include schools, colleges and institutes of higher education.
