Mount Assisi School, is an English Medium School located at Bhagalpur, Bihar, India. It is affiliated to CISCE. It was established in 1972 by Franciscan friars (Third Order Regular of St. Francis).

It is considered to be one of the premiere institutions in Bihar by various measures of education excellence such as academic reputation, co-curricular education, teacher welfare and development, competence of faculty, co-curricular activities, sports education, individual attention to students, life skills, infrastructure provision, and leadership/management quality.[citation needed]

The school started on the premises of Franciscan Ashram in the heart of Bhagalpur Town, in the vicinity of the general post office (Badi post office). (Note that the only missionary school, at that time, in Bhagalpur, 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 made the school what it is today. With the vision of Fr. Jose Chaklakal TOR, a new campus was created in the mid 1980s. The school was split into Junior Section (Nursery to Class V), which is located near Badi post office, and the new Senior Section (Class Nursery onwards) on the new campus. The campus was built east of Bhagalpur Town in the vicinity of Ranitalab and the Bhagalpur Engineering College. In 2012, a new building for the +1 and +2 students was built with a large auditorium.

In the late 1980s girls were allowed in and a co-educational school was born. 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 tennis court, a games field, an athletic field and a large auditorium for parents and children day celebration, a large hall, a modern computer lab, and science labs. The school also has a permanent stadium with seating capacity around 1500. The school library has a collection of books for students. The school has a history of high scores for both Class 10 as well as +2 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 continuous running school magazine, printed nearly every academic year, named "Masco". It allows the students to hone their literary skills with articles selected by the editorial board in both English and Hindi.

The students in the school are divided into four houses:

Houses
Red House
Yellow House
Green House
Blue House

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, held at places of historical importance as well as mythological places.

The school also holds special events each year: sports day, parents' day, exhibitions, etc.

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