What a great Walk Kick-Off Assembly it was this year and a great theme - Walkin’ in the Wild Wild West! It is going to be so much fun to dress up for the Walk! There will be a bunch of cowgirls walking around for such a great cause. A big hit was the incentive we could receive for raising $50,000 - being able to dress up for Halloween at school. The skits were great too, especially when the male Can-Can dancers came out. Altogether it was a big hit and great time too!

Club Fair 2009

Club fair is something I look forward to at the beginning of the school year. Being involved in clubs means a lot to me, and I can tell by the excitement of everyone else there that they enjoy them too. Coming to Assumption, I didn't realize there would be so many different ones to choose from with a variety that makes us stand out from other schools. At this fair, there are academic clubs, sports clubs, and ones just for fun. I enjoy all of them! I try to get involved in as many different ones as I can. Seeing all of the boards decorated and everyone eager to hear about them makes me even more excited for all the meetings to kick-off. Club fair is a good place to recognize all the opportunites Assumption has for us, and I definitely have realized that over the past couple years going here!

I had SOOOO much fun on Senior Strut day! My homeroom had "Penelope Pig," our senior mascot, and a few girls decided to tie her to me. She added to my outfit and drew LOTS of attention! I liked the theme being a PINK OUT, because we don't have our senior sweatshirts yet and it gave us a chance to make our presence known as seniors. I'm super excited about our next senior strut!!

**Editor's Note: Senior strut days are special dress-up days for seniors throughout the year. Each senior strut has a different theme, and the first for 2009-2010 was a pink out! Stay tuned for more senior strut day fun as the year goes on...
