What’s Happening at AHS
April Knight FUNdraiser – Calling for Hosts
Calling for Hosts: The Parents of each grade-level class at Assumption hold a social FUNdraiser during the school year. The purpose is two-fold, an opportunity to meet other parents and raise money to purchase a gift donated to the April Knight Auction. The adults-only party is a relaxed, casual and social atmosphere. All class parents are invited to attend with a per person suggested donation.
Any parent wanting to can become a “Party Host” which involves an additional financial support to underwrite the cost of the party. This will be $100 total. All monies raised go to April Knight/Assumption High School. All areas of the school – academics, athletics, fine arts, technology, tuition and special projects are supported by April Knight – ALL students benefit. Please contact Susie Foster if you are interested or have any quesitons: susie.foster@assumptionhigh.org or 563-326-5313 x 281 Thank you!
