Cabanatuan Catholic Educational System-CACES

28/09/2026

CACES celebrates with the College of the Immaculate Conception - Cabanatuan (CIC) as it marks 100 years of faith, learning, and service, and proudly congratulates the institution on receiving the Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines (CEAP) recognition for this remarkable milestone.

For a century, CIC has touched generations of lives by forming not only minds, but hearts rooted in faith, character, and a spirit of service. Its legacy lives on in every CICian who carries these values into the world.

CACES warmly congratulates Rev. Fr. Joseph B. Azarcon, President of CIC, together with the entire CIC community, on this blessed milestone and well-deserved recognition.

May the years ahead bring new generations to learn, grow, serve, and continue the beautiful legacy of Immaculata.

Congratulations, CIC, on 100 years!
Hail Immaculata!

This Family Day, CACES gives thanks for the families who are our first communities of faith, our first schools of love, and our constant companions in life’s journey.

In our homes, we learn the lessons that no textbook can fully teach: to care, to forgive, to listen, to serve, and to remain faithful to one another through every season. These are the same values we carry into our schools and communities as we live out our mission of Catholic education.

Inspired by the Holy Family, may our homes always be places where Christ is welcomed, relationships are strengthened, and each person is reminded that they are loved and never journey alone.

Today, we celebrate not only our individual families, but the CACES family united by faith, mission, and a shared commitment to forming lives for God and society.

Happy Family Day to all our CACES families!
May our homes be filled with faith, our relationships with compassion, and our lives with the joy of belonging to one another. 🙏💙
