History St. Gabriel Academy was established in 1968 by Msgr. Pacifico Mendoza. It began as a parish-based school and later expanded its academic programs to include elementary and secondary education.
In School Year 1968-1969, the school began its operation under the headship of Marie Lorraine, then the principal of St. James Academy, Malabon. It was agreed upon that all graduates of the St. Gabriel Academy would continue their secondary education at the St. James Academy.
The Sisters of Saint Paul of Chartres later became involved in the administration of the school. A 2011 study of the congregation's educational ministry in the Philippines lists St. Gabriel Academy in Caloocan among its schools in 1981 until 2016 when the Sisters of the St. Paul of Chartres handed on St. Gabriel Academy to the Diocese of Kalookan. Its full administration is under the tutelage of Pablo Virgilio S. David, the second Bishop of Diocese of Kalookan.
Currently, the school is administered as a diocesan institution under the Diocese of Kalookan.
