April Knight “Class of,” Family, and Corporate Sponsorship Options!

Posted on

“Class of” Sponsorships

April Knight is our major fundraising event of each school year, and the support of many is necessary to make the event so successful each year.  We greatly appreciate the gifts of time, talent, and treasure that translate into major support for all of our students and programs through this event.  We are hoping that families or those interested in supporting and honoring our current students might consider sponsorship gifts to the event.  This year, for example, we will have 4 “Class of” sponsorship lists for the following:

Class of 2028

Class of 2027

Class of 2026

Class of 2025

Parents or grandparents/family members with a current freshmen and current senior, for example, might choose to sponsor the Class of 2028 and Class of 2025.  The names of sponsors will be listed with their appropriate classes and recognized for their support through the various event promotions as well as at the April Knight event on April 25, 2025. Checks or cash for sponsorships can be dropped off to the Assumption Front Office or mailed to Assumption High School, Attn: AK Sponsorship, 1020 W. Central Park Ave. Davenport, IA, 52804.  Please indicate the specific classes you are wishing to sponsor, as well as the way you would like your name(s) to appear in the acknowledgement (For example: John and Katie Smith, John and Katie ’67 Smith, Katie Smith ’67 etc.) The costs for class sponsorships are:

1 class: $100

2 classes: $175

3 classes: $250

4 classes: $325

Family Sponsorships

Those families wishing to sponsor the event at a more significant level can also opt to be a Family Sponsor.  Family Sponsorships are acknowledged alongside our corporate sponsors, and are generally acknowledged by last name (For example: The Smith Family).  As indicated on the attached Family Sponsorship form, the levels for Family Sponsorships are as follows:

Faith: $5,000+ (Includes 10 reservations to the April Knight event)

Wisdom: $2,500 (Includes 8 reservations to the April Knight event)

Integrity: $1,500 (Includes 4 reservations to the April Knight event)

Responsibility: $750 (Includes 2 reservations to the April Knight event)

Gratitude: $300

Corporate Sponsorships

Supporters who are interested in Corporate Sponsorships are also much appreciated and sponsorship levels are the same for business as the Family Sponsorship levels highlighted above. Additional advertising incentives for Corporate Sponsors are detailed on the attached sponsorship form. If you have a business and are interested in supporting the April Knight event, this may be a great fit!

Attention Assumption Parents: Please read the following message from the SCCS office regarding the ESA program.

 

TO ALL SCOTT COUNTY K-12 CATHOLIC SCHOOL PARENTS  (Newly enrolled & returning)  

ESA PROGRAM GOES UNIVERSAL!  

Beginning this fall, Iowa’s Students First Act allows all Iowa families to access ESA(s) for their K-12 student(s) attending accredited nonpublic schools – regardless of income.   

An ESA is a public fund deposited into a government authorized account that can be used for tuition and other qualified educational expenses.  All Iowa families should apply. Even if you received an ESA in the past, you need to reapply each and every year!    

We encourage all families to visit the Iowa Department of Education Website for additional information on the ESA program – Students First Education Savings Accounts | Department of Education (iowa.gov).   

 

Iowa ESA Application Process & Eligibility  

The upcoming ESA application period is from April 16, 2025, to June 30, 2025.  To apply, click the following link https://iowa.withodyssey.com/en/odyssey_auth/sign_up.  If you already have an Odyssey account, click “sign in” below the login box.  

 If you do not have access to a computer or otherwise find yourself unable to complete the ESA application independently, you may email martha.korneisel@sccsiowa.org or rose.strickland@sccsiowa.org or call Martha at 563.326.5313 ext. 223 or Rose at 563.326.5313 ext. 269.

June 30, 2025 – ESA Applications Close.  LATE APPLICATIONS ARE NOT ACCEPTED. 

Late July – September 30, 2025 – Parents must log in to their Odyssey account and approve fall tuition as submitted by their child’s school.  If this is not done by September 30th, your student will forfeit their ESA for the entire school year.  

Mid-December thru January 31, 2026 – Parents must return to their Odyssey account to approve spring tuition. This is required to retain the approved ESA for 2nd semester. 

 

Family Tuition Plan:  If your tuition is above the ESA amount you may be able to qualify for additional tuition assistance through the Family Tuition Plan. This state subsidized program is limited to Iowa families with total income of less than 400% of poverty.
