Brief history
Founded as Pagadian Academy, a parochial school started by Fr. Jose Ma. Reyes of the Society of Jesus in 1940. The Academy was the second school to open in the Province of Zamboanga del Sur after the Southern Mindanao Colleges. As the first sectarian school, the Academy pioneered Catholic education in the province.
With the departure of the Jesuits from Pagadian, the Missionary Society of St. Columban took control of the Academy until the 1970's when the Roman Catholic Diocese of Pagadian took over. The academy shared the same fate with other Columban-controlled schools; namely, the Star of the Sea High School, Immaculate Heart Academy, and Saint Columban College. The four schools started the now collectively known as the Diocesan Schools of Pagadian with fourteen other schools.
In the 1980's, the Academy became the Holy Child Academy, named after the "Holy Child", also known as the "Child Jesus" or Sto. Niño, patron of Pagadian.
Campuses
The Academy has two campuses, both in Barangay San Jose of the city.
