OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION
CATHOLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
 

 "LEARNING AND GROWING WITH JESUS"

 

 

Message from the Principal

 

I welcome all visitors to the Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic Elementary School website.  We are a Catholic faith community committed to learning about God’s message of peace and love through the teachings of Jesus Christ, Our Lord.  In conjunction with the Church, students, parents and staff dedicate themselves to living and sharing Jesus’ teachings through celebration of the mass, acts of service to others and exercising responsible use of the earth’s resources. 

Students and staff at Assumption School are guided by our 3R’s:  Religion, Respect and Responsibility.  While there is a dedicated time for the study of our Catholic faith, it is also deeply embedded in the study of all subject areas taught over the course of the day.  Members of Assumption School are asked to reflect daily on “What would Jesus do” when endeavouring to solve problems and engaging in respectful interactions with others.  Students are guided in developing respect for themselves by eating healthily, exercising and developing positive self-esteem which, in turn, leads to respect toward others.  Everyone at Assumption shares in the responsibility for student achievement.  Academic excellence is our goal for all students as we work together to provide for them the necessary skills and knowledge so that they may, in turn, become responsible citizens ready to take on the challenges of the future.

Our Lady of the Assumption School is a place where children learn and discover their world under the expert guidance of a highly skilled staff and with the strong support of hard-working, dedicated parents.  Our motto, “Learning and growing with Jesus”, reflects our focus that through Religion, Respect and Responsibility, all students can succeed.

Yours in Christ,

Ms. L. Cavarzan

Principal
