School Notes Overview:

"Asheville Catholic School integrates Roman Catholic tradition and principles in a comprehensive instructional program. We guide our students to become Christian leaders and inspire them to become life-long learners capable of living to the fullest potential in our world. Catholic education strives to educate the whole child: spiritually, emotionally, socially, intellectually, artistically, and physically. Our curricula and co-curricular activities are designed to instill in each student a reverence for God and all his creation, and to affirm the rich diversity of our students, families, teachers, and priests, while building positive community involvement. We have a proven track record educating children to become people “with and for others” in the Christian spirit of service education. Indeed, our talented graduates have an established record of academic success and extra curricular involvement.
