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 hasimpacted the lives of past and present members of the community, writes Alex Eduque 09. Vickys office has been asanctuary for many of us: students, parents, colleagues. Her advice and candor has encouraged, motivated and keptmost of us on the right path, even when we felt like giving up. She has been a mother figure, a counselor, a teacher, aco-worker, even a match-maker; but more importantly, Vicky has been a friend to each of us. This school year, 2010-2011, marks Vickys final year in her current position as High School guidance counselor she will be retiring in June. Thebitter-sweet emotions that many of our students, parents, faculty and alumni feel can be heard in the mountain ofmessages the school has received in recognition of her service.
Vickys relationship with our school began as a Grade 2 student in Ms. Millers 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 thePhilippines. In 1973, Vicky would return to school but this time as an English Literature teacher. It wasnt until 1975,after the birth of her twin daughters that Vicky returned from maternity leave to assume her guidance counselingposition: 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 uswith such personal attention. I am the person I am today in great part due to Vickys love and caring attention, herstrength and her continued friendship. The list of dedications we have received all reiterate the same feelings. The ISManila 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 herhonor. Many of you will know of this program, which seeks to fund local national students of exceptional ability butwhose 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. Vickys Scholar would be the fifth such. These students all pass through an elaborateselection process involving standardized assessment tests, essays and psychological evaluations as well as acomprehensive means test to ascertain the familys financial circumstances. Since 1967, our Filipino ScholarshipProgram has changed the lives of over 150 students and often the lives of their families as well. The list ofaccomplishments 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 givenmuch back to the School. Listen to Vickys own assessment of the value that they have added: I was aware of theFilipino Scholarship Program when it started way back in 1961; this was when the first batch of Scholars started in whatwas then called Junior High (Grade 7). They graduated in 1967, and the second batch of scholars was in my class of1968. Since then, Ive had the honor of getting to know just about every Filipino Scholar in 44 graduating classes andoh, how theyve raised the bar at ISM not just in the classroom but in extra-curricular activities as well! The Scholarshave played a huge role in making our School the success it is today.
What better way could there be of recognizing Vickys unique contribution to IS Manila than to help expand ourScholarship program in her name! We ask each of you to make a pledge to this cause such that we can establish anendowment fund large enough to provide for the continuing tuition and support of an additional, truly deserving FilipinoScholar. Of course we recognize that, in making this appeal, we shall receive donations both small and large. We planto 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 aninternational school education and beyond, it will also help keep Vickys legacy alive for future generations of students.

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 acompany/industry/career that you are curious aboutand maybe even getting a bit of work experience at the same time.
Welcome toThe 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 youbegin to better acknowledge your aptitudes/likes, where you hone your strengths and where you begin to sort through thatrather complicated map know as your educational and future career path. Unfortunately, it is often a map with gapsbetween 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 shadowplacement right after high school finishes in June with various companies in the Metro Manila area. During this 4 dayinternship, 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 studentsinclude (among others):
Alaska Milk Corporation andAsian Development Bank (ADB)
If you are interested in possibly being selected for an internship/job shadow placement please1. Make sure you have the dates of June 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 open in your schedule and2. 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 anyquestions.
FROM THE BRITISH COUNCIL:
British Council Philippines, together with British Airways, is offering an opportunity for one high school student to join a 3-week Summer School at St. Edmunds College for free!
