We’re excited to share that some of our students have been hard at work creating, editing, and recording their very own podcast—sponsored by our local Catholic radio station!
With a mission to connect and inspire the Catholic teen and young adult community, their voices are now being heard far beyond our school.
✨ The podcast is officially LIVE on major platforms—be sure to listen, support, and share!

Assumption parents and community members, please support our grade-level retreats! We are looking for donations of snacks and plateable desserts (homemade items are a real treat)! Also, new this year, we are seeking volunteers to pray for our students during their retreats. Adoration will be attended in the AHS Carroll Lab (next to the school library) throughout all retreat days. Please consider signing up for one or more time slots. Our young people need and benefit from our prayers!
The dates of the retreats are as follows:
Junior Retreat-Tuesday, April 28
Freshman Retreat-Wednesday, April 29th
Sophomore Retreat-Thursday, April 30th
Senior Retreat-Friday, May 1st
We are also in need of host families to house members of our visiting retreat team. If you have available beds at your home, please consider offering them to these amazing house guests! Please contact AHS Campus Minister, Natalie Imborek at natalie.imborek@assumptionhigh.org with questions or to sign up to host.
Please also reach out to Natalie if you or someone you know would enjoy time spent as a retreat small group leader. We need helpers on all retreat days, and you do not need to volunteer for all days in order to participate in this way. This is a great opportunity for older siblings who might be in town and available.
Thank you so much for your support of our AHS community!
The Davenport Assumption High School Academic Decathlon team proudly represented our school at the Iowa Academic Decathlon State Competition, held March 5–6, 2026, at Saydel High School. This year’s theme, “The Roaring Twenties,” challenged students with rigorous tests in ten events including Art, Economics, Essay, Interview, Literature, Math, Music, Science, Social Science, and Speech, plus the exciting Super Quiz Relay.
Our students delivered outstanding individual performances and earned several medals against stiff competition from across the state.
Our team includes Declan Murphy, Noah Fetterer, Elijah Milton, Evan Wilson, and Natalie Stombaugh in the Honors category. Ryan Bang and Devin Diaz in the Scholastic category, & Trevor Gray, King Goodwin, and James Zeller in the Varsity category. This year, we took Declan, Noah, Elijah, Ryan, Devin, and James to State.
We are especially proud to celebrate the following medalists:
• Declan Murphy earned an impressive four medals in the Honor division: gold in Literature, gold in Math, bronze in Economics, and bronze overall.
• Elijah Milton took home gold in Essay (Honor division).
• Ryan Bang won silver in Math (Scholastic division).
• James Zeller earned silver in Math (Varsity division).
These achievements reflect the dedication, hard work, and academic excellence of our student competitors.
Congratulations to all our Academic Decathlon participants! We are proud of your efforts and look forward to continued success in future competition.
Our Academic Decathlon club is open to all AHS students and helps develop critical thinking, public speaking, and deep content knowledge that will serve students well beyond high school. Anyone who wishes to join can come to our first meeting next September!
We are looking for a licensed attorney to assist with our Mock Trial program. We have a school adviser who oversees the program, but we are looking for someone to help offer their expertise in writing statements and arguments for the competitions in March. Dates and times can be flexible to work with the volunteer attorney. If you or anyone you know might have an interest, please contact Bridget Murphy at bridget.murphy@assumptionhigh.org
Thank you!
