Welcome to Ascension School!
Established in 1929 in Halethorpe, Maryland, Ascension School is a Catholic parish school serving families and children from age four through eighth grade as well as an Early Learning Center for 2 and 3 year olds.
Rich in local history and Catholic heritage, Ascension School’s mission is to educate the whole child. Our teachers acknowledge each child’s gifts – spiritual, academic, social, and physical – enabling each child’s healthy development as an individual, infused with self-esteem, a sense of responsibility, dignity and commitment to the greater good.
Encouraged by a staff that embraces Christian values, our students are guided in living their faith and are also challenged to reach their full academic potential. Parents /Caregivers are welcomed into the school community as partners in the education of their children, working and meeting with our teachers in ensuring that their children succeed.
