Don't feel it was as great for my child as it was when I went to school there. I feel we could have gotten more for what we paid for but there were too many distracting students and a lot of voucher kids who don't really want to learn or be in the Catholic religion setting. The technology dept was great but the science for upper grades leaves a lot to be desired. In 5th grade the math is split by grades earned. And once you get split you can never get out of what the kids referred to as the "dummy math " class the kids are stuck there for the rest of their time at Ascension. My child as well as several of her class mates are retaking the Algebra 1 in HS because so much was skipped over. I don't feel my child was as prepared for HS as I hoped she would be by attending a private school. I also feel discipline needs to be there and upheld to, if it's I. The hand book it needs to be handled like it says it will be

Thirty-one years ago we were looking for a vibrant and welcoming parish, and hoped the school was good. What a gift we received when we chose to send our children to Ascension Catholic school. This year, our seventh child will enter 8th grade which will mark our 28th and final year at Ascension. We have made life long friends and memories, especially because we chose to become actively engaged in the life of the parish and the school.

I think Ascension is a wonderful school. My children are receiving top notch education and are able to learn more about our Catholic faith. The teachers, staff, and principal are very compassionate and truly care about each and every student. I am so happy to be a part of the Ascension family.

Ascension School is OUTSTANDING!! My children have had an AMAZING experience at Ascension Catholic School.

My children have attended Ascension for many years. I have only had positive experiences and interactions with the staff and faculty. I've enjoyed the change in principals. Mrs. Digiorgo is very pleasant and professional. I would recommend this school.

The principal is not very sincere nor does she follow up with parents very quickly. She also doesn't seem to respect or value the time volunteers give to the school. The teachers for grades K-3 are just o.k. and several really don't seem to be there because they love teaching children. The teachers...
