Rooted in Faith. Driven by Excellence.

Since 1959, for more than 65 years, Ascension has been a leader in educational excellence within a Christian environment. Rooted in faith and tradition, our goal remains steadfast: to nurture students into individuals who are gentle, generous, truthful, kind, and brave.

At Ascension, we believe one of the greatest gifts we can offer our children is opportunity—the chance to grow, to explore, and to become. Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to developing the whole child—academically, emotionally, spiritually, and socially. We equip students with the skills and mindset for a lifetime of learning, leadership, and purpose.

What's the Ascension Advantage?

At Ascension Episcopal School, the Ascension Advantage lies in our balanced, whole-child approach rooted in Chrisitan values and personal connection—where rigorous academics are integrated with fine arts, athletics, and faith to cultivate confident, compassionate leaders. 

Our exceptional faculty serve not only as educators but as mentors and role models who know, challenge, and champion every student -helping students discover who they are and what they can become. 
Students are empowered to excel and encouraged to lead—not just in school, but in life. This is the difference families invest in—and the reason Ascension is more than a school; it’s a transformative community.
