FOUNDER, FATHER JOSÉ NOVATO

# data[].attributes.body
The father José Novato was one of the most important founders of Colegio San José, which was a priest of the prelature of Yauyos, and that had a great impact with our school, since it gave it a great boost, becoming the first school in Cañete, and one of the most prestigious.

The father José Novato says that in order to build the school that we now know, it took a long process and great effort, especially economically.

In his classes he was very funny, he taught psychology classes, and he kept telling jokes. I prayed all the time to improve the quality of the school, and to do new activities.

With a lot of logic and grace, in a few words, he was not only a very important figure for the development of the school, but he was also a father, a brother and a friend, and he will always be in our hearts.

He had many interesting phrases, but he repeated one many times, every time he ate a sausage or smoked, since the doctor forbade that, he said, "YOU HAVE TO DIE OF SOMETHING"

Light that shines in the darkness
from the error for the truth,
wise that science teaches
to an eager youth
thirsty in Cerro Alegre
San José Mixed School

A humble carpenter;
an artisan of God
a simple and faithful worker;
what did you choose by pattern
makes a mark on the path
because their motto is union

with the saw and the brush
taught son and lord
an omnipotent Divine,
that in Mary was incarnated
and to change came structures
by the force of love.

DEAR TEACHERS

Father José was born in Teruel in 1933. He was a fat, bald and friendly priest: "the look is the least of it," he also commented when defining himself.

It gave it a great boost to become the first school in Cañete. Many wanted to study there. He also had a high opinion of his own educational center because - he said - it "hurt" when a fourth-year high school student - who is now a priest - told him in 1987 that he wanted to go to study at the Minor Seminary "because it was a better school. " Father Novato commented that if the student had said he wanted to be a priest or for another reason, he understood, but "did not accept" that the main reason was that his school was not so good.He suffered many contradictions on the part of some inhabitants of Cerro Alegre who did not understand his work and magnanimous objectives.When they told him that a new priest was very good at preaching or confessing, he would say: "a new broom sweeps well, but the old one knows where the garbage is."He preached very well. With a lot of logic and grace.He smoked a lot and ate sausages, which the doctors had forbidden him, but he always said that you have to die of something. And so it was in 2004. His body is in the crypt of the Sanctuary of the Mother of Beautiful Love and his soul will be telling many jokes to all his friends in heaven.
