CAREER DAY SPEAKERS NEEDED
As part of our celebration of Catholic Schools Week we would like to expose our students to different college and career opportunities.
This is a request for parents, grandparents, or friends of Assumption to share your college and career experience with our students.
All careers are welcomed, from lawyers and doctors to public servants to business owners and skilled craftsmen.
If you would like to share your experience and possibly inspire one of our students to do great things, please contact Mr. Santoli ASAP.
Presentations will be during the school day over Catholic Schools Week (January 29 to February 2) times and specific dates are flexible.

Soup Drive for Homes for the Brave
Only Two Weeks Left to Help Homeless Veterans
Mrs. Riehl, Mrs. Loreng, and the PK3 class will once again collect canned soup for Homes for the Brave. Every Monday, until the Super Bowl, students and staff are asked to donate canned soup. As a thank you, Mr. Santoli will allow anybody that donates to wear their favorite football (or any sport) jersey over their uniform.
Homes for the Brave provides emergency shelter for homeless veterans as well as counseling, housing, and career guidance.
