Mission Week

Live Your Mission.

Mission Week is a transformative and integral part of the Assumption High School experience. Rooted in our mission to form socially responsible women committed to Gospel living, lifelong learning, and leadership through service, this week-long program empowers students to discover their strengths, deepen their faith, and prepare for their future roles in the world.

What is Mission Week?

Originally launched as a senior mission trip, Mission Week has evolved into a comprehensive, school-wide initiative that engages every student in meaningful, grade-specific experiences. During this special week in the second semester, regular classes are suspended, and students participate in a variety of enrichment, service, and reflection activities designed to educate the whole person: mind, body, and spirit.

Reflection & Self-Discovery

Mission Week helps students recognize their value and potential. Through guided reflection and hands-on experiences, they are encouraged to set personal goals and explore how their unique gifts can contribute to the greater good.

Community & Individual Development

Students learn to balance personal growth with community impact. They are challenged to make thoughtful choices, prepare for their futures, and understand the broader implications of their actions.

Structured, Grade-Level Activities

Each grade level follows a theme inspired by our school mantra, with activities tailored to their developmental stage.

"I am a valuable person..."
FRESHMEN

Focus on self-worth, class bonding, and creative expression.

"I have dignity & worth..."
Sophomores

Emphasis on respect, self-defense, and community awareness.

"and what I do makes a difference."

Job shadowing, career exploration, and college preparation.

Seniors

Immersive field experiences on social justice topics, financial literacy, and post-graduation planning.

Why Mission Week?

Holistic Education

Mission Week reflects our commitment to educating the whole person—not just academically, but spiritually, socially, and emotionally.

Future Preparation

Students gain practical life skills and real-world experiences that prepare them for college, careers, and civic engagement.

Community Building

Through shared experiences and collaborative projects, students strengthen their sense of belonging and learn the value of contributing to the common good.

Empowering Leadership

Mission Week instills confidence and leadership by encouraging students to take initiative, advocate for justice, and believe in their ability to make a difference.

Mission Week is more than a break from routine, it’s a bold invitation to live our mission with purpose, compassion, and courage. It’s a week that stays with our students long after it ends, shaping who they are and how they serve the world.
