San Pedro College was founded in 1956 by the Dominican Sisters of the Trinity from Quebec, Canada.  It began as a school of nursing of the San Pedro Hospital, the first Catholic hospital in Mindanao, which the religious sisters have been operating since their arrival in 1948.

Inspired by the Most Rev. Clovis Thibault, PME, then Bishop of Davao, the Dominican Sisters led by Sr. Pauline Guilmette, OP and Sr. Cecile Denise, OP, laid the foundation of the San Pedro Hospital School of Nursing.  Bishop Thibault facilitated the acquisition of the land on which the school was built.
