St. Mary's 

Assumption School

Cottonport, LA

 

INTEGRITY - We do the right thing (even when it's hard and no one is looking).

PERSEVERANCE - We never give up.

RESPONSIBILITY - We own our actions.

UNITY - We work together.

The ultimate goal of St. Mary’s is to serve the people in Avoyelles Parish by providing their children with quality Catholic formation and education. Because parents from surrounding communities choose to send their children to St. Mary’s, the school strives to serve their interests in as much as those same interests correspond with the school’s mission. The total educational and spiritual development of the child is the primary focus of the school. Our goal here at St. Mary’s is to ensure that each child attending the school will grow to his/her maximum potential. In order to attain our mission as a Catholic school, we strive to adhere strictly to the Catholic philosophy of education and to provide an environment in which excellence can prevail.

St. Mary's collects Box Tops for Education and Community Coffee labels. Please send your labels to the office or scan your receipt with the NEW Box Tops app if you are collecting for us! Thank you!


If you see this label, use the new Box Tops app to scan your receipt. Box Tops are still worth 10¢ each for your school. The app will find participating products purchased at any store and instantly add cash to your school's earnings online.
