Backstage Angels Meeting – February 7th

Posted on

Hello, parents, please note that due to Ash Wednesday and Valentine’s Day,  the Backstage Angel’s meeting date has been moved up to February 7th at 6:00 PM in the Auditorium.

We strongly encourage, that if you have a child in the Addam’s Family cast or crew, that you make every attempt to attend this meeting. They are pretty quick and efficient but we will cover a lot of details for the upcoming musical.

Can’t wait to see you there!

Senior Parents – Parent Teacher Conferences – Treats Signup

Posted on

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, February 8, 2018. Conferences are in the AHS Cafeteria from 3:30-7:00 p.m. that evening, so drinks 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!

Service Hours Opportunity – February 3rd and 4th

Posted on

Are you looking for service hours? In honor of “Cathedral Sunday” (and in an effort to support our Diocesan Cathedral), we are looking for students/families to sell raffle tickets after each of this weekend’s Masses (February 3/4) at our supporting parishes. The job is simple- stand at the back (tickets in hand) and be available for sales as parishioners exit Mass. The sign-up timeframes list the Mass times at each parish, so volunteers should expect to stay 15-20 minutes after Mass to complete the service opportunity.  We are so blessed to have our beautiful cathedral so near.  Fortunately, we are able to host our annual Baccalaureate Mass there, as well as a variety of choir and retreat events throughout the year.  Supporting this effort is but a small way we can assist in keeping this beautiful place of worship (that we all share) at its best.

A single student name can be entered (the student’s siblings and/or parents are welcome to assist with covering the multiple exits of the church), or a few students can sign up together. Each Mass a student covers will count for 1/2 hour of service for the AHS service log. Students are allowed to cover multiple Masses at their parish, if desired.  Students covering any Mass should pick up a packet of tickets by the end of the day on Friday, February 2nd, in the front office. 

Please consider helping with this effort. Click here to sign up via the SignUp Genius. We are blessed to be a part of this vibrant Catholic community, and many hands make lighter work.  Happy Catholic Schools Week 2018!

One in the Spirit,

Mrs. Murphy
