St. Paul the Apostle Catholic School Mission St. Paul the Apostle Parish builds a community of disciples, strengthened by word and Sacrament, to celebrate, live and share the Good News of Jesus Christ. In furthering the Parish mission, St. Paul the Apostle School provides a Christ-centered academic environment designed to promote the total development of the child by instilling the values of our Catholic faith, family, and life-long learning. St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church has a history of offering a high quality, Christ-centered elementary school on its campus since 1926! St. Paul the Apostle School strives to develop the whole child by instilling the values of faith, community, and life-long learning. Students are called to give back to God and His people by using the talents and gifts which God has bestowed. Our goal is for students to possess knowledge and understanding of Catholic teachings and gospel values – informing action through service to others. Discipleship, stewardship, and family are hallmarks of St. Paul the Apostle Catholic School. Our dedicated faculty and staff seek to help students by providing quality learning environment and supporting high student expectations. Frequent opportunities for family involvement contribute to the ongoing success of each student, and serve to emulate relationships that honor Jesus, Mary and Joseph, the original Holy Family. At St. Paul the Apostle School, students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills as well as effective listening and speaking styles. Students have regular access to the types of technology that bring value to the learning process. In September 2011, St. Paul the Apostle Catholic School was designated as a National Blue Ribbon School based on academic achievement. This level of academic excellence is the result of a partnership between parents, students, teachers and the larger parish community.
Assumption High School Mission Our mission, as a Catholic educational community, is to prepare students academically, spiritually, and morally, for the opportunities and responsibilities of the future. Assumption challenges each student to reach their academic potential in preparation for life beyond high school. Students develop critical thinking skills and learn to reason scientifically, mathematically, and historically. Above all, students are encouraged to become faithbased, self-directed, life-long learners. The majoirty of AHS teachers have advanced degrees in education or their instructional content area. This allows our course offerings include ten AP courses and 64 college credits – all offered on the Assumption campus at no additional cost! A learning resource center is also available for students in need of additional academic support. Faith development, as well as civic and personal responsibility, are fostered both in and out of the classroom. All AHS students document a minimum of 80 community service hours prior to graduation. Assumption is an optimum size to encourage student engagement and a sense of community. A wide range of athletic programs and extracurricular activities, as well as 24 student clubs, provide diverse opportunities for student involvement. Each Assumption student is provided a laptop, allowing students to obtain instant access to real-time information and real-world skills. Teachers regularly incorporate technology into their lessons and classroom activities, and students have access to their laptops both in the classroom and at home. In addition, every Assumption student participates in a seminar course each semester. This technology-based experience is a powerful tool that prepares students for the variety of learning and communication experiences of college and career. Assumption is proud to be the first high school in the area to offer a computer programming and game design course. With rare exception, the ACT test is taken by all upperclass students. The results demonstrate AHS student scores that consistently rank above Iowa and national averages.
