Honoring Vicky Sycip Herrera ’68: Teacher, Guidance Counselor, Mentor, Friend
“Vicky has touched the lives of so many people, and however hard we try, words cannot do justice to how much she has impacted the lives of past and present members of the community”, writes Alex Eduque ’09. Vicky’s office has been a sanctuary for many of us: students, parents, colleagues. Her advice and candor has encouraged, motivated and kept most of us on the right path, even when we felt like giving up. She has been a mother figure, a counselor, a teacher, a co-worker, even a match-maker; but more importantly, Vicky has been a friend to each of us. This school year, 20102011, marks Vicky’s final year in her current position as High School guidance counselor she will be retiring in June. The bitter-sweet emotions that many of our students, parents, faculty and alumni feel can be heard in the mountain of messages the school has received in recognition of her service. Vicky’s relationship with our school began as a Grade 2 student in Ms. Miller’s class on the Donada campus (of the American School as it was then known) in 1957. Graduating in 1968, Vicky went on to study at the University of the Philippines. In 1973, Vicky would return to school but this time as an English Literature teacher. It wasn’t until 1975, after the birth of her twin daughters that Vicky returned from maternity leave to assume her guidance counseling position: a position she has held for the past 38 years. One alumnus remarked, Vicky has been, “the perfect guidance counselor, friend and mentor. She treated each of us with such personal attention. I am the person I am today in great part due to Vicky’s love and caring attention, her strength and her continued friendship.” The list of dedications we have received all reiterate the same feelings. The IS Manila community has been truly distinguished by having Vicky as part of our faculty. In commemoration of her service to our community, we have established the Vicky Sycip Herrera Scholarship fund in her honor. Many of you will know of this program, which seeks to fund local national students of exceptional ability but whose parents lack the financial capacity to fund an education at IS Manila. Presently, the school supports four Scholars in each Grade from 8 to 12. Vicky’s Scholar would be the fifth such. These students all pass through an elaborate selection process involving standardized assessment tests, essays and psychological evaluations as well as a comprehensive means test to ascertain the family’s financial circumstances. Since 1967, our Filipino Scholarship Program has changed the lives of over 150 students – and often the lives of their families as well. The list of accomplishments and achievements of these Scholars is remarkable. And although the Scholars have gained immeasurably from an ISM education, it is worth noting that they have the given much back to the School. Listen to Vicky’s own assessment of the value that they have added: “I was aware of the Filipino Scholarship Program when it started way back in 1961; this was when the first batch of Scholars started in what was then called Junior High (Grade 7). They graduated in 1967, and the second batch of scholars was in my class of 1968. Since then, I’ve had the honor of getting to know just about every Filipino Scholar in 44 graduating classes – and oh, how they’ve raised the bar at ISM – not just in the classroom but in extra-curricular activities as well! The Scholars have played a huge role in making our School the success it is today.” What better way could there be of recognizing Vicky’s unique contribution to IS Manila than to help expand our Scholarship program in her name! We ask each of you to make a pledge to this cause such that we can establish an endowment fund large enough to provide for the continuing tuition and support of an additional, truly deserving Filipino Scholar. Of course we recognize that, in making this appeal, we shall receive donations both small and large. We plan to recognize those who make substantial contributions on a special board of honor located prominently in the school. Please think carefully about this giving opportunity. Not only will your generosity open up a life-changing pathway to an international school education and beyond, it will also help keep Vicky’s legacy alive for future generations of students.

FOR GRADUATING SENIORS:
Dear Parents, In line with the forthcoming graduation of our seniors, we are preparing the return of the Facilities Upgrade Deposit (FUD) of $5,000.00 paid at the time your child entered International School Manila, Inc. To enable us to release the refund on June 30, 2011 onwards may we remind you of the following: 1. Submission of the Facilities Upgrade Deposit (FUD) duly endorsed by the holder of the certificate. The refund in the form of check will be made payable to the holder’s name indicated in the certificate. 2. Clearance for the textbooks to be accomplished the last day of school. 3. Full settlement of all outstanding balance on clearance day This does not apply to ADB and US Embassy sponsor students. Thank you for your cooperation.
FROM THE ADMISSIONS OFFICE:
Re‐Enrollment information for RETURNING STUDENTS for SY2011‐12
Re‐Enrollment requirements for all returning students will include, minimally, submission of an updated Health Form or Physical Form (depending on grade level) to the Clinic for a Clearance Signature and a Clearance Signature from the Cashier’s Office on the Re‐Enrollment Form. The Re‐Enrollment Form and other requested forms for each re‐enrolling student will be available by the beginning of April online from our website under Admission and Re‐Enrollment & Withdrawal or at the Admission Office during office hours (Monday to Friday; 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.). Parents may pick up a set of Re‐Enrollment Forms personally or your child can come to the Admission Office and get the forms. If you would like to have your driver or househelp pick up the forms, please give them a letter of authorization to collect the Re‐Enrollment Forms for your child/children.
For STUDENTS NOT RETURNING next school year (Does not apply to graduating seniors)
If your child(ren) will not be returning to ISM for the 2011‐12 school year, please inform the Admission Office as soon as possible if you have not already done so. Parents are obliged to officially inform the School in writing on a WITHDRAWAL NOTIFICATION FORM, before the second Friday of May, if their children will be withdrawn. Failure to do so will lead to a deduction of US$1,000 from the Facilities Upgrade Deposit (FUD), in compensation for having held a space for the child and thus preventing the School from offering that space to another child prior to the summer holiday break. The Withdrawal Notification Form can be obtained from the Admission Office or from the ISM website under the Admission tab and then click on Re‐Enrollment & Withdrawal. We currently have very few families indicating that they will not be returning and consequently there are an ever growing number of applicants in a WAITPOOL for possible openings. This is causing great distress and anxiety in those families (and in the Admission Office). If you are sure that your child will be leaving ISM, please submit a Withdrawal Notification Form. This will be a great help for our planning and to the many families waiting to be admitted to the school. Thank you. Regards,
Gary W. Jerome

FROM THE ATAC OFFICE:
IASAS 3rd Season information: ISM Bearcats had a great 3rd season to conclude the school IASAS year of events. Here at ISM we proudly hosted the Badminton tournament and received fantastic support from our school community with full gyms and plenty of cheering fans to support the high level of Badminton on display from all teams. ISM Badminton teams played well against tough opposition with the boys team placing 4th and the girls team taking out the Bronze medal this year. A great effort on home turf for our teams and the ISM girls also won the sportsmanship award. Our Softball teams played magnificently in Jakarta to capture the Gold medal in both the boys and girls competition. This was the first time the ISM boys team has won the IASAS Softball title and for the girls the last victory was way back in 1988. To do it both in the same year is incredible and the school is extremely proud of all the players and coaches. Track at Bangkok was a tough event for all participants with temperatures over 40 degrees to endure on the first couple of days. ISM boys finished in 4th place overall and the girls took home the Bronze medal at this year’s Track championships. ISM athletes achieved quite a number of personal bests with school records broken at this meet along with a new IASAS record by Prerna Bhargava in the girls 1500m event with a time of 4.56.27.
IASAS 3rd Season sports awards is Friday May 6th at HS Gym starting at 5:30pm ‐ dress to impress!

SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROGRAM:
Dear Grade 10 and 11 students, Are you ready for the REAL WORLD? How would you like to spend 4 days (June 13, 14, 15, and 16) right after school finishes learning more about a company/industry/career that you are curious about…and maybe even getting a bit of work experience at the same time.
Welcome to The Bearcat Summer Internship Program
As you all know well, high school for students is (among many things) a time of self-discovery. It is a time where you begin to better acknowledge your aptitudes/likes, where you hone your strengths and where you begin to sort through that rather complicated map know as your educational and future career path. Unfortunately, it is often a map with gaps between what you learn in your “academic” classrooms and the “real world” your teachers are working to prepare you for. In short, we hope to help bridge that gap for selected ISM students through a four day summer internship/job shadow placement right after high school finishes in June with various companies in the Metro Manila area. During this 4 day internship, you would essentially work (without pay of course) at a particular company, handling various level appropriate responsibilities and/or job shadowing a selected employee(s). Current companies that have signed up and will be offering internships/job shadowing opportunities to our ISM students include (among others):
Alaska Milk Corporation and Asian Development Bank (ADB)
If you are interested in possibly being selected for an internship/job shadow placement please 1. Make sure you have the dates of June 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 open in your schedule and 2. Check your ISM email account very shortly for additional details on how to apply. In the meantime, please contact Mr. McQueen (
[email protected]) in the HS Guidance Office if you have any questions.
