St. Nick’s Bags

We would like the opportunity to maintain the custom of putting candy in the student’s shoes for St. Nick’s Day, but due to Covid feel we need to do it a little differently this year.

If you would like to donate any “King Size” candy or candy bar to the cause, we will make sure each student receives it in their shoe on St. Nick’s Day.

Please send any “King Size” candy or candy bar you would like to donate to the Front Office by December 1st.

If you have any questions, please contact Shelli Miller in the Front Office at shelli.miller@assumptionhigh.org or 563-326-5313, ext. 9-200.

Thank you for your help in keeping this traditon going.

Support Scott County K-12 Catholic Schools – Contact your Representative

Please take a moment to contact your Members of Congress to ask that emergency aid to nonpublic schools and families be included in the next Covid-19 Legislation package. Our requests include equitable access to K-12 federal funds for nonpublic schools, direct support to families for tuition assistance and additional tax breaks for K-12 tuition payments.

As always, we encourage you to include your personal story in the message to your legislators, as well.

Our nonpublic schools and the families they serve should be included in the COVID-19 relief legislation. Make your voice heard by contacting your Congressional members today. Thank you for your advocacy!

Additional Resources for 2020 Graduates

I wanted to share two additional resources for 2020 graduates that have been brought to my attention if you are interested in participating.  The first one is directed more at Quad City Graduates, and the second is on a more national scale.  As I said – these are just options, but I wanted to be sure you knew they were available to you.
