I am ICA, short for Scholastica, Born and raised in Pampanga. A second-generation Kulasa. We often hear people asking, “What’s in a name?” Growing up, I would often hear my mom’s tales of why I was named after her alma mater’s patron saint and how she wanted me to experience the same Benedictine education and

ideals that played a crucial foundation in her being. I am ICA. Independent but a team player, Compassionate, kind, and peace-loving, Achiever through hard work and prayer. ICA is of Greek and Swedish origin, meaning “LIGHT”. True to my name, be like a bright shining light as we all become a beacon of God’s light to others. As we are taught to always act in serenity and to see the good in all things and find
beauty in all forms.
ICA, in the local dialect (Capampangan), also means
“YOU” “. To fellow Scholasticans, will you allow yourselves to reminisce about the “ICA” that you once knew? The ICA that was instilled long before and the one epitome
of a Kulasa within you?
Again, my name is ICA. I AM ONE PROUD KULASA!
