Academic Excellence Rooted in Faith.

Our academics allow students to gain the skills and knowledge necessary to grow into the individuals God has planned. Our dedicated and highly educated staff uses proven academic strategies to provide students with the tools necessary to achieve success. We follow a core curriculum supplemented with technology, necessary learning resources, virtue-based discipline and enrichment for students needing extra challenges. We are continually guided by our mission to educate the whole child.

Bringing Faith to Life for Our Students

Within the classrooms at Ascension, teachers use differentiated instruction to respond to the needs of individual learners. All students are screened with research-based assessments, such as MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) and DIBELS, and they are matched with instruction that addresses grade level requirements, reinforces basics, and meets the needs of those ready for enrichment.

The ACS Student Success Team is comprised of:

  • Two full-time Resource Teachers and two full-time Special Education Coordinators who offer specialized and research-based reading and math support based on student needs
  • Part-time Speech and Occupational Therapists who design and implement small group and individual instruction
  • Enrichment Coordinator who provides small group enrichment services and STEM classes for all students
  • Instructional Aides to support classroom and small group learning
  • Part-time Behavioral Coach who offers individual and small group coaching
  • Full-time Counselor who provides individual, small group, and classroom support
  • Full-time Nurse who supports student health needs

ACS collaborates with several local public schools to coordinate additional services as needed.
