Assumption High School Reviews

The staff at Assumption high school genuinely cares about the development of each and every student enrolled. Teachers truly take students under their wing in order to see them excel in not only their education, but also life skills, such as mannerism, professionalism, and politeness. Leaving Assumption, I felt 100% prepared to commence a higher education. Now, starting my sophomore year as a business Finance major at the University of Iowa, I am academically excelling thanks to my experience at Assumption High School.

Assumption is a great place for religion and it is a terrific tight-knit community. That being said, if you aren't into sports, extracurriculars are going to be very difficult for you. The fine arts department is hardly funded and/or talked about, plus there are hardly any academic clubs. If you are into sports, great; just be wary of the "winning is the only thing" mentality here, especially in track. Other than that, the academics are good, and the smaller size of the school allows for closer friendships and a more realized shared identity among students.
Assumption High School is known for its athletic and academic excellence. Many sports within the school win state titles each year, and the school has also won a few national titles. The student to teacher ratio is very small, so students have a chance to get quality one on one time with teachers. Every teacher in the school is knowledgeable about his or her subject, and all the teachers in the school work hard to ensure that students are ready for college once they graduate.
