As part of our American Classical Education, Ascent Classical students honor the intellectual and moral inheritance from the western tradition, pointing to the timeless truths and principles espoused by our forefathers. They study our founding documents and learn how the courage of our founding fathers and military created the free and flourishing republic we enjoy today.

We recognize the personal freedom and safety we enjoy every day is due to the bravery and sacrifice of our national heroes. Today, we honor the men and women to stand for our country, including those who now teach and lead our students.
