Faith Formation

Ascension Scholars attend mass together each month.

All Scholars Are Beloved Children of God

Each scholar leaves our school understanding that he or she is a beloved child of God.  All of our faith formation lessons and everything we do as a Catholic school comes down to that. All families are welcome at Ascension, and all faiths are respected.

  • Every class has regular religion lessons with their teachers, supplemented by occasional teaching visits from Ascension’s Pastor, Fr. Dale Korogi.
  • The school body as a whole prays together each morning.
  • Scholars and staff attend mass together once a month.
  • A scripture passage is designated each week, and scholars are encouraged to memorize it and learn the character trait that it encourages. These are listed in the weekly newsletter.
