Community End of the Year The fundraising commitment for this school year ends on Tuesday, April 30th. The Walk-A-Thon, scheduled for Friday, April 12 is the last opportunity to meet your obligation. April 30th will also be the last day to purchase Consumer Chex as we are transitioning away from this program; it generates a tremendous amount of work with little gain. Students will be wearing free dress, each class is given a color to wear on the day of the Walk-A-Thon. Please see the colors listed below. All students are encouraged to wear athletic attire and comfortable walking shoes.

Reflection May you seek perspective,pausing from time to timeto observe your story from on high,marveling at the distance coveredstep by step by step.May you view the vastnessof your voyage,the sunshine and storms,the myles and open waters,the humid and arid lands.May you honor what’s behind you,learnings amassed,mistakes discarded,people shaped by knowing you.And then go on.

Peace Junior BachAn Assumption student played the Prelude and Fugue in C Major of Johann Sebastian Bach at Saint Mark’s Lutheran Church in San Francisco this past Sunday evening. There were many children ranging in ages 5-17 performing at the annual Junior Bach Festival. Our Trojan was the only one to perform on the pipe organ and he played his music from memory. The other children played other instruments or sang. 2019-2020 Registration FormNext school year’s registration form is due Thursday, April 11. Please carefully review as the form has been updated.
