Welcome to Assumption Catholic School
We hope you’ll visit us to experience that joy firsthand and hear from students, teachers and parents what it means to be a part of the Assumption Catholic School family!
What’s Happening Now
Inclusive Community
Families of all faiths are welcome and EVERY CHILD is surrounded by Christ’s love!
Affordable and Accessible
ACS is the oldest private school in Bellingham, serving third and fourth-generation families of Whatcom County. One-fourth of families receive tuition assistance.
Committed to Service
To foster servant leadership, each grade level adopts a service project that they support throughout the year. Middle school students complete service hours as part of their Religion class requirement.
Rich in Diversity
Our school is more ethnically diverse than many schools in Whatcom County. Spanish is taught K-8. Cultures are honored and celebrated.

Letter from the Principal – Nov 17th, 2025
“The academics are excellent, but the most important thing is the values that are taught. Kindness, altruism and empathy are taught by example. We feel so grateful that we chose Assumption and only wish we had come sooner.”
-Gene & Maureen Thomas
“We wanted our daughter to grow up in a Christian-based environment, but were not expecting to find such a strong and loving community. It was a wonderful surprise, and we’ve now realized how important that is when finding a good school.”
-Edgar & Karla Sicairos
“If you want a second home full of love, values, and respect, where your children also develop well academically to be better people in this society, do not hesitate to choose Assumption for them.”
-Bernardo Torres-Ariza & MeryLuz Duque-Soto

🌟 Student Spotlight 🌟Our Student Spotlight this week shines on one of our amazing new Kindergarteners! Mrs. Russell says, "David brings so much joy to our class. He joined us mid-year and quickly made friends and learned our routines. Although he came in only speaking Spanish, he quickly has picked up English and helps our class learn Spanish as well! We are thankful the Lord has brought him to our school and for his kind and generous heart."Keep shining, David! ✨#AssumptionCatholic #StudentSpotlight #KindergartenJoy #AssumptionCatholicSchool
