SAFE. SUPPORTED. SUCCESSFUL.

The leadership, teachers, and staff of Ascend Academy are committed to providing students with individualized opportunities for academic and social success – in a safe and engaging environment. We know the available options, we understand the limitations faced by many of our students, and we want to ensure a solid future for them. Since 2015, Ascend Academy Charter High School has empowered, supported, and championed youth when others have given up.

At Ascend, we are there for our students as a support system and as their advocates. With our blended learning model, students learn at their own pace using our online Apex curriculum, while having certified teachers in the classrooms, using one-on-one strategies, to help students navigate and master the content. Our curriculum meets each student at their academic level while challenging them to grow.

Our culture is built on empowering youth, believing in them, and challenging them to do their very best. Our supportive and encouraging environment shows students they have the smarts and are capable of succeeding as long as they apply themselves.

“I FEEL SAFE AT SCHOOL”

“Ascend Academy Charter High School gave me a chance to make up my credits and still graduate on time. They cared enough to give me a plan that worked!”
KRYSTAL B, 2017 GRADUATE

“Public high schools are too big, but Ascend is small enough that my teachers and the administrators got to know me fast and were able to help me with the advanced classes I needed to graduate.”
MELISSA C., 2018 GRADUATE

“I feel safe at Ascend Academy High School. There is a police officer at the door as I walk in each morning, and I don’t worry about kids causing problems because the staff cares about our safety.”
