Founded in 2014 by a committed group of families, board members and staff, Ascension Classical School offers the Shreveport community an educational opportunity based on the classical Christian model. From one initial kindergarten class, Ascension has grown by adding a successive grade level each year. Now in its seventh year, the school serves more than 100 students enrolled in grades K-6, with plans in place to become a full K-12 institution in 2026. In 2019, Ascension completed and moved into its classically designed new building, located at the corner of Norris Ferry and Southern Loop. In addition to a top-notch and nurturing faculty, Ascension offers a robust list of excellent special programs in keeping with its classical ideals, including Latin, art, music, physical education, nature studies, and a library comprised of the Great Books. Exciting athletic and co-curricular opportunities for the Upper School are being added every year.
