Overview
Ascent Christian is a private K-12 school in Colorado Springs, CO. Our middle school program is built around the intentional relationship between our school and families. Our hybrid model requires parent involvement throughout a child’s academic journey on Mondays and Fridays throughout the middle school years while encouraging the beginning of independence.
All middle school grades take core classes in Bible, Language Arts, Math, Science, and History. They also engage in community and collaborative learning through chapels and student ministry activities and retreats. Students also have the opportunity to explore the world through our extensive theater and outdoor adventure programs.
