School Notes

MISSION OF ASSUMPTION SCHOOL We educate our students in a nurturing environment, rooted in Gospel values and Catholic traditions, where each child is recognized, respected, and cherished as a child of God. In partnership with parents, we guide our students to grow in love, understanding, and practice of their Catholic faith, to actualize their individual academic potential, and to be responsible citizens who are Christ-like in their service to others.

PHILOSOPHY We believe that:
- Catholic schools exist to integrate faith, life, and culture.
- Parents are the first, most important educators, and that their beliefs, values and actions are the primary and strongest influence on children's lives.
- The function of elementary education is to build a strong foundation of basic skills, work habits, and character development in preparation for higher education and for life.
- Students learn best in an atmosphere of loving acceptance of their unique God- given qualities.
- Students must work hard to do their best, and must strive to develop their full potential as Christian members of their community.
- A Catholic education leads students to be academic achievers, good citizens, Christ-centered, and true stewards of God's creation.
Therefore, we educate our students to be:
SCHOOL-WIDE LEARNING EXPECTATIONS
Faithful Disciples who:
- Pray, participate in Sunday Mass, and receive the sacraments.
- Know the Gospel message, and the beliefs and traditions of their faith.
- Serve others, work for social justice, and participate in the faith community. Responsible Citizens who:
- Respect themselves, others, and God's creation.
- Love their country, exercise their rights, and fulfill their responsibilities.
- Are globally aware, sensitive to diversity, and seek justice for all. Motivated Learners who:
- Are self-disciplined and self-reliant.

I am entering my 8th year as a parent at ABVM. I am so happy to have found a wonderful home away from home for my children. There have been some changes administratively in our time but one thing has remained constant... my kids are happy, have a wonderful group of friends, and are kind + respectful. I love all the extras the school has from the new STEM classes, advanced math placements, choir, performing arts, ribbon dancing, etc. My kids love being involved and we love keeping them busy!

This Catholic school has a small family feel with a big heart. Families are very friendly, and hard-working, and many are involved in various activities. My 2 children benefit from the small class sizes and because of this, they receive a very personalized education. The school has a new principal and a new energy. It's a wonderful community.

Such a gem of a school! Small class sizes, excellent academic instruction and so many amazing extracurriculars like music, art, sports teams that compete regionally, and Spanish language instruction in all grades starting in TK. Many teachers have master's degrees and many years of experience teaching. This is more than a school, it is a welcoming place where your child will be part of a community. We love ABVM!
