Congratulations Melanie Comer and Allison Smith on their selection and participation in the 2019 Meistersinger Honor Choir at Wartburg College. They spent two days rehearsing, listening to choral performances, and singing in a concert. A video of the final concert can be found at this link: https://livestream.com/wartburgknightvision/meistersingerchoir/videos/186144491
School is cancelled today due to weather. Parent/Teacher Conferences are also cancelled for tonight.
We have several lost items in the Front Office. We have school approved clothing, jewelry, glasses , sweatshirts and coats that have been left in classrooms, restrooms and the locker rooms. If your student is missing something, please have them stop by the Front Office and see if any of it belongs to them.
Thanks!

Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held on Thursday, February 7th in the Cafeteria from 3:30-7:00 PM. Parents can come to the Café during that time to meet with their students’ teachers. No appointment is necessary, as conferences are held on a drop-in basis. Individual meetings will be conducted every 5 minutes, as indicated by the bell system in the Café. Parents anticipating the need for more extensive communication with a particular instructor are encouraged to contact the teacher directly to set up an appointment outside of conferences.
There will be no evening or afternoon Honor Choir Performances.
Please find attached a memo from Mrs. Murphy regarding snow make-up days for this school year.
Please see below for Student Service Opportunities:
Campus Ministry is looking for donations of yarn and/or crochet needles. Ask Mrs. Imborek for details.
Mrs. Smith is looking for students to tutor Spanish. Contact her at: jodi.smith@assumptionhigh.org
Students will have the opportunity to attend Adoration every Tuesday in the Chapel. It is a great way to spend some time with Jesus and pray for others during your study hall. Mrs. Imborek will also be providing crochet materials (set up in the chapel everyday) for students to learn and be able to make gloves, hats and scarves for the homeless.
Up With Families is still in need of volunteers for their annual event on Saturday, February 23rd, 2019. Attached is the sign-up and informational handout. Please contact Julaine Edwards for more information at corbysjewel@hotmail.com or call 563-349-2860.

Mr. Loes will need volunteers for the weekend AHS will host the IHSMA District Solo/Ensemble Festival. It will be Saturday, March 23rd. Please see Mr. Loes for additional details and sign-up.
Villa Maria is looking for students that are interested in painting after hours at the daycare. This can either be done on weeknights or on the weekend. If interested, please contact Mrs. Imborek.
Please check with local parishes for their Spring Gala or CEW dates! Your parish will need help with set-up and clean-up on those weekends!
St. Anthony’s and the Knights of Columbus will need help at their annual Fish Fry every Friday during Lent.
Due to the predicted extreme temperatures on Wednesday, January 30th, all offices at Assumption High School will be closed.
Are you looking for service hours? In anticipation of Catholic Schools Week next week, we are looking for students/families to represent Assumption at each of this weekend’s Masses (January 26/27) at our supporting parishes. The job is simple- hand out “thank-you” flyers as parishioners exit Mass. The sign-up timeframes list the Mass times at each parish, so volunteers should expect to stay 15-20 minutes after Mass to complete the service opportunity. The purpose of the flyer is to express appreciation to the community for its ongoing support of Catholic education at Assumption High School and to invite them to this Sunday’s AHS Senior Spaghetti Supper. The meal is complimentary, and is held from 4-7 pm in the Assumption cafeteria. This year marks the 60th year of this annual tradition of senior service to our school community!
Please click on the signup below to commit to passing out flyers at a given Mass. A single student name can be entered (the student’s siblings and/or parents are welcome to assist with covering the multiple exits of the church), or a few students can sign up together. Each Mass a student covers will count for 1 hour of service for the AHS service log. Students are allowed to cover multiple Masses at their parish, if desired. Flyers will be distributed to students covering the first Mass at each parish on Friday, January 25th, in the front office. (Students covering subsequent Masses should look for the flyers in a cardboard flat in a back center pew of the church.)
Please consider helping with this appreciation effort. We are so grateful to our wider Assumption Community, and without this support, the education at Assumption High School would not be possible. Happy Catholic Schools Week 2019!
