Ascension School Mission Statement

Ascension School is a ministry of the faith community of Ascension Parish, committed to providing excellent education in the spirit, tradition and value system of the Catholic Church. Essential to this ministry is the active partnership among students, parents, faculty, staff and parishioners.

Ascension School provides a curriculum that meets the present needs of its students and prepares them for high school, for higher education and for a lifetime of learning.

Ascension School helps each child to grow in awareness of the child's individual talents and unique place within the family of God. Ascension School's mission is to strengthen its students' understanding and practice of their faith; to allow them to grow in faith; and to work towards creating, through their service, a compassionate and just community. This mission is guided by a philosophy of love, kindness and respect for each individual, while celebrating our bond in gospel values.
