Event Policies:

● Students are to be in attendance until the last 30 minutes of the event unless parent
notification is made to school officials.
● When a student leaves the event, he/she must leave the school and cannot
return. All dress must be modest, appropriate, and respectful.
● All dancing must be appropriate for a Catholic educational setting. Students not
meeting this expectation may be asked to leave the event, and parents will be
notified.
Out of Uniform Note:
● Students will pay for out of uniform during lunch periods (Student ID cards with out of uniform
star count for this) and hand stamps will be checked in 6th hour classes.
● Students who do not have proper out of uniform verification will be issued Dress Code
violations.
● Day-specific hand stamps will be used to serve as a pass. The daily hand stamp must be shown
to the student’s 6th hour teacher whenever out of uniform.
● Out of uniform collections during Homecoming Week will benefit AHS student clubs and
activities. Help AHS in supporting this worthy cause.

In an effort to celebrate our incoming senior class and pray for their leadership in the coming school year, all seniors and their parents/guardians will join for a potluck in the school cafeteria on Sunday, August 18^th, from 5:00-6:30 p.m.  Families with last names beginning with A-M are asked to bring a side dish to share and N-Z will bring a dessert.  Chicken will be provided by AHS.  Dress is casual. We invite seniors and their parents to please join this gathering as we kick-off the year with a blessing of the Class of 2025!

Orientation will be held Tuesday, August 20^th, and all incoming freshmen and new/transfer students are required to be present from 2-5 p.m.  Students are asked to be in dress code for orientation.  The student-only portion of the day will be devoted to meeting teachers, learning student schedules, accessing lockers, and familiarizing students with lunch procedures.  Parents/Guardians are encouraged to arrive at 5:00 p.m. for an opportunity to get more parent-directed orientation information in the Assumption auditorium. This evening portion is intended for students and their parents to have the opportunity to not only feel comfortable with a variety of school personnel but to also connect with future classmates and their families.  Highlights of the Assumption experience will be profiled, and a variety of AHS personnel resources will be on hand to get acquainted and answer questions.  Families will learn ways to get involved at AHS during their student’s high school career, we will come together to share in the blessing of our new students, and a picnic dinner will be provided by AHS in our cafeteria.  We sincerely hope that our new students and parents/guardians find this busy day to be a great way to connect and feel at ease during this time of transition.  Contact Mrs. Stephanie Schroeder, Director of Admissions, at Stephanie.Schroeder@assumptionhigh.org if you have any questions.
