Ascension Christian exists to serve the spiritual and educational needs of a growing community.
Ascension Christian believes each student is an individual creation of a loving God.
Our programs are designed to provide skills that enable students to become valuable and productive individuals within society.
Each student has individual strengths, which we strive to develop through our various educational programs.
The total curriculum strives to embrace the student's life intellectually, socially, physically, and spiritually.
We believe that man's understanding of himself and others as well as his relationship with God and his fellow man are a reflection of this balance.
