Colégio Dom Feliciano

What Colégio Dom Feliciano does

Colégio Dom Feliciano is a private Catholic K-12 educational institution founded in 1924 by Bárbara Maix, headquartered in Gravataí in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The school operates as one of 15-17 units within the Rede ICM (Instituto Coração de Maria) educational network, which spans Rio Grande do Sul, Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo, and also encompasses seven socio-assistance institutions. It serves students from nursery (Berçário) through high school, including technical/vocational tracks, with additional optional programs such as the Dom Bilíngue bilingual track, Turno Estendido (extended day), Turno Inverso (reverse shift), Dom Esportes (sports), and supervised extracurricular activities. The institution holds a Certificado de Entidade Beneficente de Assistência Social, anchoring its identity as a values-based Catholic school with charitable mission and a formal scholarship program (Edital 2027/1).

The school's product surface is anchored by standard digital infrastructure — a GVDASA-powered Student/Parent Portal and Teacher Portal, a shared Rede ICM digital library catalog, and a Matterport 360° virtual tour of facilities for prospective families. It also operates ancillary services including coordinated third-party school transportation, CPaisBOX locker rental, and uniform distribution. Technology stack is conventional web/SaaS with no disclosed AI/ML components, no proprietary models, and no published APIs or developer-facing integrations. The infrastructure is largely shared at the Rede ICM network level rather than built independently.

The revenue model is recurring tuition-based (monthly billing cadence), supplemented by fees from ancillary services (extended day, reverse shift, locker, transportation coordination, bilingual add-on). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; scholarships are allocated through a formal annual public notice. GTM is multi-channel: institutional website, virtual tour, social/news presence, seasonal enrollment campaigns, and direct campus visits, with online enrollment handled via the centralized matriculas.redeicm.org.br portal. The school has 96 employees, no disclosed revenue, no funding rounds, and is privately held under Rede ICM with no public-market listing.
