Summer Web Clean-up

Do you have a favorite picture on www.ascension-school.com? Be sure to right-click and save pictures, because events and pictures from the 2008-2009 school year are removed during the summer to make way for the new school year. Check your child's classroom galleries and the Year in Photos page!

Ascension Art Club


Art Club students earned a second place nationally for the painting they entered in the Catholic Campaign for Human Development annual contest.  This year's theme was "Empowering People to Combat Global Poverty."  The CCHD contest awards $375 to the school and matches it with a gift to an approved charity that Ascension chooses.  Congratulations to Mrs. Pesce and 2009 graduates Marian Woznica, Ruth Whittaker, Mary Kate Skalitzky, Megan Wirtz and Colleen Gartland.
