Academics

From the very beginning, our goal at Ascension has been to teach lifelong learning skills at each grade level, while adapting the curriculum to meet the varying formative stages present within each student.

Athletics

Athletics, an important part of the Ascension experience, teach fundamentals, techniques, and sportsmanship. Students learn life lessons such as teamwork, dedication, and responsibility and practice respect for opponents and the rules. They develop the ability to win and lose with grace.

Fine Arts

Ascension offers an amazing opportunity for a fine arts education — music, theater, drawing, painting, sculpture, graphic design. Let us help you to find your talent.

Worship

Worship services and Christian Education classes provide opportunities for our students to deepen their relationships with God.

High School Girls Soccer Program Reflects on 5 Year Run

The Daily Advertiser: When Ascension Episcopal girls soccer coach Adrian Boyle talks about the “genuine footballers” who built the Lady Blue Gators’ program into what it is today, he’s not intending to disparage the girls that came before them.Because that was back when the program was in its infancy. In fact, Ascension’s first soccer team was a co-ed squad. The second year featured only one senior on the roster.So it took a few years for the Lady Blue Gators to add players of a certain caliber, specifically club players, to start progressing toward elite status. The 2014-2015 season, when Beverly Richard, Quinn Billeaud and Jacqueline Cloutier were eighth graders, was the start of what’s become an impressive five-year run for Ascension.
