The emotional words of thanks from the General Mother, collected the four pillars that have sustained in time the educational work and that are a guarantee of the future: the charism of José Gras, the effort of so many generations of daughters of Christ the King, the work and commitment of the educators and families that have trusted the education of their sons to the school and the home school to form them in the values of the gospel. This award is a challenge and encourages us to continue living education in the manner of Jesus, promoting truth, justice and peace.
