Ascension Catholic Diocesan Regional School (Ascension Catholic) admits male and female students of any race, color, national, or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on any national or ethnic basis in administration of the school's education policies, scholarship and financial aid programs, athletics, or any other school-administered program.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to registration, all students NEW to Ascension Catholic applying for admission to grades 1 through 12 must submit (1) Copy of most current academic transcripts; (2) Letter of discipline (disciplinary history report) from school where currently (last) enrolled; (3) Copy of most recent standardized test scores, (4) If the applicant has been evaluated for special needs, the latest evaluation (no more than 3 years old), (5) Copy of Birth Certificate; (6) Baptismal Certificate (if Catholic); and (7) Health records (if not already included with records from previous school).
At the time of registration, new registrants must submit (for Catholics) a “Catholic Church Parish Membership Verification Form,” completed and signed by one’s Catholic pastor or (for non-Catholics) a Letter of Approval/Recommendation from one’s pastor.

Prior to registration, all students NEW to Ascension Catholic applying for admission to grades 1 through 8 will be scheduled for placement tests in reading and mathematics.

Prior to registration, all students NEW to ACHS applying for admission to grades 9 through 12 will be scheduled for an interview with the high school guidance counselor. The role of the guidance counselor at this interview is to review the application documentation so that a decision on admission can be made by an admissions committee appointed by the principal comprised of members of the professional staff and faculty. Students who have been expelled or asked to withdraw from another school, or with recent histories of disciplinary problems, will not be considered for admission to ACHS within the same school year. Individual transcripts will be screened for academic suitability (especially in cases of special needs with which we are limited in providing services) and discipline reports for discipline problems. It is important for us to ascertain and preserve our ability to give each student the individual attention necessary for his or her academic success, and to ensure that the disciplined order and climate necessary for learning prevails at ACHS.
 

Registration is held each year in early spring for the upcoming school year.  Tuition and fees are charged to help cover the cost of operating Ascension Catholic.  The help of our parents and alumni with fund-raising activities is also essential to meet the budgetary needs of the school.  Current information on tuition and fees is available on the registration forms below.
 

Parents are expected to choose between the following two options for the 2017-18 school year.

OPTION 1:  Parents are to work a total of twenty (20) hours for the school year beginning March 1 of the previous year and ending on the last day of February of the current school year.  Four (4) Fair hours are mandatory; Four (4) Athletic Event hours are mandatory (middle and/or high school); Two (2) Purple & Gold Club hours at major fund raising events are mandatory. [Alumni Softball and/or Volleyball Tourney, Alumni Golf Tourney, Purple & Gold Club Booth at an Athletic event].  The remaining 10 hours may be earned by providing more assistance in the three above mentioned events or in some other service to the school.

OPTION 2:  A family may choose non-participation.  A fee of $400.00 is to be paid for non-participation at registration.

Work hour opportunities will be made available to parents through communication on RenWeb or assigned by team coaches for participating students in each sport.
