A woman of faith, excellence, and service
Witnessing, in joyful thanksgiving, to the Good News – Jesus Christ
To all people, particularly the Chinese Filipinos.
To provide quality Catholic education to form women leaders who actively participate in building a
just and peaceful society.
ICA is a Catholic educational institution for girls that provides BASIC EDUCATION, with a distinct CHINESE FILIPINO character.
As a CATHOLIC SCHOOL, it offers an educational program which is guided by Catholic doctrines, traditions, and practices. Student formation is Catholic in orientation, rooted in Gospel values. Foremost among ICA’s goals is to cultivate and nurture in the students, as well as in the faculty and
staff, a lively faith in Jesus Christ. As TRUE CHRISTIANS, they endeavor to build a community of faith that celebrates the Eucharist and other sacraments and promotes the ideal of service to others, especially the poor and marginalized.
Its BASIC EDUCATION program is geared towards the development of COMPETENT STUDENTS who possess the necessary skills, attitudes, and
values of life-long learners. Imbued with a sense of excellence, they are driven to maximize their potentials to succeed in their chosen endeavors.
It is a FILIPINO SCHOOL which aims to develop a strong sense of nationalism in the students that leads them to be COMMITTED CITIZENS who are appreciative of their Filipino cultural heritage, loyal to the Filipino nation, and actively involved in building a society where God reigns.
Owing to the distinct heritage of its students, ICA aims to foster in them an appreciation of their Chinese cultural traditions and help them blend these with Filipino traditions.
With the Blessed Mother as its patroness, ICA strives to develop in the students the tender yet firm disposition and the joyful and grateful attitude of Mary towards all that she has received. The CULTURED AND REFINED ICAn exhibits preference for the good, true, and beautiful and manifests humility about the gifts she possesses and generously shares these with others. She promotes simplicity, harmony, and peace in her family and community.
We bear the name of Mary, the Immaculate Conception, so we look up to her as our model of a “woman of faith, excellence, and service”, especially as shown in her Ecce-Fiat- Magnificat.
As a woman of Faith, an ICAn has a personal relationship with God and lives a Christ- centered life.
As a woman of Excellence, created in the image of God, an ICAn strives to be the best version of herself for God and society.
Beloved School, your song we sing;
Your banner we raise high
Immaculate Conception
We will bring your spirit till we die
So lead us make our life a mirror of your bounteous grace
And we will grow strong in times of strife
By following your ways
Refrain:
Our life is true
You taught us what to do
And in our hearts your words will stay
We’re white and blue Immaculate for you
Our Alma Mater, I.C.A.
O star of Mary brightly shine
And guide us with your light
Immaculate Conception
We are yours forever in your sight
And when we say; Praise be to you, beloved I.C.A.
Your hallowed walls we know so well
Will echo while we sing.
