On Wednesday, November 22, 2017 a Thanksgiving tradition at Assumption Catholic School continued. What begin several years ago as a simple gathering to give thanks to God together as a school, has grown into a real Thanksgiving Feast. This year students in the Senior Drama Club prepared a short program about the history of Thanksgiving: Fact or Fiction. The FSA board member, students and volunteers, under the direction of Mrs. Maria Derevenska, our kindergarten teacher, prepared and served a full Thanksgiving dinner. In addition to pie baking, the students of ACS also helped with the preparation of the cornbread and potatoes. At the end of the day all of the students felt good that they had contributed to what would be a wonderful Thanksgiving meal that was shared by everyone in school. This year, we were highly honored by the presence of Mrs. Wilda Diaz , Mayor of the City of Perth Amboy and the Perth Amboy’s New Fire Chief.

We would like to wish all of our ACS families a very happy Thanksgiving Weekend! Thanksgiving is a time for family and we hope that you and your family have an extra enjoyable weekend. Happy Thanksgiving and may God bless you all! Thanks for sharing your child with us.
