Put the Fight the New Drug Presentations on your Calendar: December 5th at the Solon HS Performing Arts Center.
We’re not talking about Opiod or Heroin use – but something equally addictive and destroying far more lives: pornography.
What is the problem with porn? Many don’t realize viewing pornography rewires the brain, forming addictions and affecting behavior. One needs increasingly violent and perverse porn to feed the addiction. It is contributing to depression, anxiety, academic and emotional struggles on a wide scale – across all demographics of teens. It teaches them to objectify and use others. It affects their ability to have authentic relationships. It leaves them feeling confused, helpless and alone. It is harming those caught in the industry. It is driving human trafficking and other violent acts of crime.
It is a wide-scale concern: There are 42 million porn sites – with millions of videos free for a click of the mouse. 76% of porn is assessed on mobile devices. More than 90% of those ages 12-17 have been exposed to hardcore pornography. Once they’re exposed, many keep coming back.
The porn industry will do whatever it takes to keep them coming back. It is an industry that brings in more revenue than the National Football League, Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association combined. They’ll create whatever type of porn is necessary to trap people in the darkness of their abyss.
Ok, What can we do? Get it on your calendar & invite everyone you know to join you on December 5th. Our parents and young people deserve an opportunity to be informed: to learn about porn’s harmful effects on their brain, heart and world. To be equipped with ways to protect themselves, to be empowered to talk without shame and to get free-access to help if struggling with an addiction.
On September 4, 2018 we held our first Blood Drive of the school year. We provided 31 donations for local hospitals. Each whole blood donation can be processed into multiple blood components, so our blood drive provided up to 124 products for patients in need.
Thank you to all who gave blood to provide lifesaving products to hospitals throughout the region.

We have so many dedicated teachers at Assumption, and we want to provide snacks and drinks for them to enjoy during the upcoming Parent/Teacher Conference time on Thursday, October 4th, 2018. Conferences are in the AHS Cafeteria from 3:30-7:00 p.m. that evening, so water and treats can be dropped off in the Assumption Front Office any time that day or the day before. Thanks so much for your help and support of our teachers through the Knight Network parent organization!

It’s time again to show our love and support for the fabulous faculty and staff at AHS! Knight Network is providing teacher treats on Tuesday, September 25th. We are asking for Senior parent volunteers. Food donations can be dropped off in the AHS Front Office any time Tuesday morning after 7:00 AM. If you have a container you would like returned, please remember to label it. If you know what you plan to bring, please put that in the notes on the sign-up. Thank you so much for your support of our AHS Community.
The Davenport Community School District will continue to bus eligible Davenport District students to Assumption. Families wishing to utilize this service should contact the district transportation office at 563-386-1436 immediately. Assumption also provides transportation to students living in Bettendorf and Pleasant Valley School Districts, as this is not available otherwise. Payment for this busing is due to AHS at the beginning of each semester (a bill will be sent) in order for a student to be routed. Families can recoup these costs by completing a Nonpublic Parent Reimbursement Request form (available on their public school district website). Families interested in this transportation option should contact Mrs. Jackie Guldenpfennig in the Assumption Transportation Office at 563-326-5313 ext. 220 no later than July 20th.
