The Staff at ASCEND Online

Our vision at ASCEND is to build a community, both on-line and in person, of families and individuals dedicated to promoting a life in Christ through faith, family, and education.  Raised in the power of the Holy Spirit’s sacramental presence, we prepare our families to be “lights onto the world” by our example of Love.

ASCEND Online is the first Catholic home school option in Canada directly supported by a diocese.

 Founded by Bishop David Monroe in April 2011, as the sixth school to operate under the direction of the Catholic Independent Schools of the Kamloops Diocese, to bless families by affirming the “domestic Church” in education.
