School Notes
- Ascension is a School Choice school. We also do require that all non-Lutheran families that choose to send their children to our school, go through pastor's adult instruction class (10-12 weeks) in order to learn and understand what we believe and will be teaching your children. The home is the base for education and home, church, and school must all work together.
