History

The school was established in 1972 by Franciscan friars (Third Order Regular of St. Francis) on the premises of a Franciscan Ashram in the heart of Bhagalpur. The only other missionary school in Bhagalpur, at the time, was the co-educational Mount Carmel School.

Principals, including Fr. Louis K, Fr. Job TOR, Fr. Jose Chaklakal TOR, Fr. Jose Thottunkal TOR, and Fr. Thomas Chhitokulam TOR, were instrumental in the development of the school. A new campus was created in the mid-1980s due to the influence of Fr. Jose Chaklakal TOR. The school was split into the Junior Section (Nursery to Class V), which is located on the original campus, and the Senior Section (Class Nursery onwards) on the new campus built east of Bhagalpur in the vicinity of Ranitalab and the Bhagalpur Engineering College. In 2012, a new building with a large auditorium was built for the +1 and +2 students.

In the late 1980s, the institution became Co-ed. In 1992 the Plus Two wing was built, initially for a Science Wing, and was co-educational. Fr. Jose Thottunkal TOR and Fr. Thomas Chittokulam TOR, then Principal and Vice Principal were in charge.

The school is equipped with a basketball court, a volleyball court, a games field, an athletic field, an auditorium for parents' and children's day celebrations, a large hall, a modern computer lab, and science labs. The school library has a collection of books for students. The school holds medical camps from time to time for underprivileged members of society, in conjunction with the school alumni group.

Mount Assisi School is one of the few institutions in Bihar with a continuously running school magazine, printed nearly every academic year, named "MASCO". There are articles in both English and Hindi.

The students in the school are divided into four houses. Each house competes in competitions throughout the year, such as quiz, dance, and music (instrumental as well as vocal). There are also sports tournaments, including cricket, volleyball, football, kho-kho tournament, and basketball.

The school has a yearly picnic for the students, and holds special events such as sports day, parents' day, exhibitions, etc.

'For God and Country' is the motto of the school. [1] [2] [3]
