Welcome to Ascension School
Ascension Catholic School is a community defined by excellence, purpose, and a deep commitment to forming the whole child. As a proud National Blue Ribbon School and Green Ribbon School, we are recognized for both academic achievement and our dedication to environmental stewardship. Our students consistently rank among the top five in reading and math across the Archdiocese, and nearly 60% of our graduates earn honor roll distinction in high school.
At the heart of Ascension is our mission: to develop Christian thought leaders. This mission is lived daily through a culture where students serve, support one another, and grow in faith and character. Through prayer, worship, and service, students learn to lead with compassion, integrity, and courage. We maintain a zero-tolerance stance on bullying, creating a safe, respectful, and welcoming environment for all.
Our faculty is one of our greatest strengths. With a remarkably low turnover rate, our teachers are deeply committed to their students and to the mission of the school. They build meaningful relationships, provide individualized instruction, and continually refine their practice to ensure every child is challenged and supported.
Ascension blends tradition with innovation. Our 1:1 iPad program in grades K–8 enhances learning while maintaining a strong focus on critical thinking and personal connection. Students also benefit from a state-of-the-art technology and robotics lab, and have earned first place in the city robotics championship for two consecutive years.
Opportunities extend well beyond the classroom. Our competitive athletic program continues to excel, highlighted by two city championship volleyball teams in 2026. Whether in academics, athletics, the arts, or service, students are encouraged to discover and develop their unique gifts.
With small class sizes, differentiated instruction, and a focus on real-world learning, Ascension offers an educational experience that is both rigorous and personal. As one of the fastest-growing schools in the Archdiocese, our continued growth reflects the strength of our program and the trust families place in our community.
Families who visit Ascension often say the same thing: they can’t believe a place like this exists. Many describe it as a hidden gem—and the best school they toured, by far.
Most importantly, Ascension is a welcoming community—one where families feel connected, supported, and proud to belong.
Peace in Christ,
Terrence Mullaney
Principal
