The rays signify the light and wisdom which emanate from the Virgin, the Mother and the light of the world.

The sampaguita beneath the book, being the national flower, is symbolic of the R.V.M. being a Filipino Congregation.

The stars represent our Lady's many virtues.

At the center of the seal is an open book bearing the Latin inscription "Initium Sapientiae Timor Domini" which in English means, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom". Appropriately, it has become the school's motto for it signifies filial fear, love, awe and profound reverence for the Divine Source of wisdom, grace and life.
