History[edit]

The history of Assumption Suksa School^[1] date back to the year 1933 when Pastor Leo Perudong was the rector of Assumption Cathedral. He built Assumption Suksa School which was known as Assumption Cathedral School. At that time, the children of the saints in Assumption Cathedral would attend this school by enrolling in the name of Assumption Convent School; mean that these children were in responsible of Assumption Convent School. There were just 65 children attend at the first time. The number of children continually increased, until the total number of students who were in responsible of Assumption Convent School was 1,757 students: 848 students were Assumption Convent School’s, but the other 909 students were Assumption Cathedral School’s. This number of students was large enough to build another school. So, Pastor Leo Perudong separated these schools, and named the separated school as “Assumption Suksa School”. Therefore, Assumption Suksa School was completely founded in 1953.
