Ascent Classical Academy recognizes students’ intellectual achievements through academic awards in individual subjects and in overall academic achievement. 

Virtue Awards

Each month starting in November, our faculty have the opportunity to nominate their students for Virtue Awards, which are meant to honor and represent the school’s seven core virtues: courage, moderation, justice, responsibility, prudence, friendship, and wonder. Students, grades K-9, are nominated based on their demonstration of one or several of these core virtues, and the nominations are read aloud by their teachers and presented with a certificate by the headmaster in front of the entire school. One winner is chosen for each class.

Student of the Year

Each year, Upper School teachers have the opportunity to nominate students for various awards at the end of the year.
