April Knight

Dear Assumption Family,

There are many times throughout the course of a year when I am reminded just how special our Assumption community really is.  There are schools in every community, but this school is so much more than that.  Our recent April Knight fundraiser brought the beauty of our Assumption Family to light once again, and I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to so many in our community who played such a vital role in the success of the event.  From our corporate, family, and class-level sponsors to the student committee members who gained real-world educational experience through their service to this effort, to those who donated and purchased auction items, to raffle ticket buyers and sellers to all of those who attended and celebrated that night – thank you.  Our mission of Catholic education is only possible through the support of many.  I am truly blessed to be a part of this family.

One in the Spirit,

Bridget Murphy

“Class of” Sponsorships

April Knight is our one major fundraiser of each school year, and the support of many is necessary to make the event so successful each year.  We greatly appreciate the gifts of time, talent, and treasure that translate into major support for all of our students and programs through this event.  We are hoping that families or those interested in supporting and honoring our current students might consider sponsorship gifts to the event.  This year, for example, we will have 4 “Class of” sponsorship lists for the following:

Class of 2027

Class of 2026

Class of 2025

Class of 2024

Parents or grandparents/family members with a current freshmen and current senior, for example, might choose to sponsor the Class of 2027 and Class of 2024.  The names of sponsors will be listed with their appropriate classes and recognized for their support through the various event promotions as well as at the April Knight event on April 26, 2024. Checks or cash for sponsorships can be dropped off to the Assumption Front Office or mailed to Assumption High School, Attn: AK Sponsorship, 1020 W.
