History
In 1935, the Chinese Filipino families asked the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Conception (MIC) for a school so that their baptized children can lead Christian lives through school formation. Today, the school is named Immaculate Conception Academy (ICA), a private Catholic school for girls ages five to seventeen and is still run by MIC. The school's current directress is Sister Dina Ang. The foundress was Venerable Delia Tetreault who was from Quebec, Canada.
