Volume:4  Issue: 4 September 23

Dear Assumption Family,

Last week I welcomed many of our parents to Back to School night. This was a great opportunity to share the new and exciting happenings here at Assumption.  Time was spent to explain the implementation of our personalized learning initiative.  For those of you that were unable to attend, please read the document below to give you a sense of this new and effective program.


Please take the time to read this document. If you have any questions or concerns please contact your child's teacher or me to discuss further.

We also discussed the need for parent and family involvement in the school community. All families are required to provide 10 hours of volunteer service to the school. These service hours will be managed by the HSA. You will receive paperwork from the HSA soon. Please read the letter and sign the fee agreement and review the list of volunteer opportunities. If you have other ways that you can help outside of school hours, please let me know. We are always looking for people to manage projects around campus. 

Please remember that all volunteers must be Virtus trained and sign up for a background check before being allowed to chaperone trips or volunteer in the school.  Click on the link below to register for Virtus training.


I look forward to working with you to make this the best year yet for Assumption Catholic School.

Many Blessings,

Steven J. Santoli
Principal
