Our Values

At Assumption Catholic School we are committed to providing a nurturing learning environment that promotes strong Christian values, love for God, prayer, respect for others, and service to the community. We educate the whole child and support each student's growth spiritually, academically, emotionally, socially, and physically. This is accomplished through formation in three key areas: Faith, Academics, and Service.

FAITH

Strengthening the spiritual lives and moral foundation of our students through daily prayer and trust in God.

Our students are surrounded by faith everyday and are taught to carry God with them in everything they do. We strive to help our students live by Gospel values, display strong moral character, and positively contribute to their school and community.

Students are formed through many experiences, including the following:

Regular Mass and school liturgies (reading, petitions, usher, choir)
Daily Religious Coursework, Virtue of the Month
Daily silent individual prayer, group prayer, spiritual bouquets
Mentorship in faith (4k, K, 1st)
Stations of the Cross, Living Rosary, Adoration, Catholics Schools Week

Core - English, Literature, Math, Religion, Science, Social Studies

SERVICE

Instilling the characteristics and virtues necessary for our students to be leaders of tomorrow through community engagement and service to others.

Christian service is an integral part of the student experience at Assumption Catholic School. All students take an active role in bettering the world around them through regular service at each of the following levels: Classroom, School, Local Community, and Globally. Even preschool and 4K students gain greater appreciation of community needs by collecting items to support community agencies.

As students grow older, they become more involved in local efforts and extend their reach to support national and international causes.

Below are some of the service projects the students participate in each year:

Our students collect over 500 pounds of food each Thanksgiving season, and deliver it to our local food pantry.
At Christmas our students adopt a family in hopes of bringing Christmas joy to their home.
Every other year, our students pack food for Feed My Starving Children to send to the hungry in Haiti.
Each year during Catholic Schools week, we hold a Mission Carnival and send all of our proceeds to church missions.
During Lent we conduct penny wars to supplement our mite boxes and gift the Santa Cruz mission in Boliva.

When added up, our students donate more than 2,000 hours of community service annually.
Some of the agencies and causes that benefit from these hours are:
