Last week was particularly special as we launched our Eighth Class into the next stage of their educational journey. They are a group of wholesome, reflective, responsible, conscientious and good-hearted young men and women!
Today we celebrated our Pre-Primary students in their own special Closing Ceremony. And, tomorrow, we’ll say farewell to our Primary through Seventh Class students for the summer in their moment of acknowledgement and achievement. These end-of-the-year ceremonies, full of ritual and formality, are part of our heritage as a way of honoring our students’ growth and development.
There are a few openings at some of the sign-up parties offered at Chemin 2016, including an ASH-Only Viewing of “Finding Dory”; Glass Making and Wine Party; ASH Night at the Kyoto Steakhouse of Japan; and Sing-Along with “The Wizard of Oz.” READ MORE

These days are filled with many displays of LEADERSHIP as we experience much JOY in the midst of it all:
• Last Friday we were blessed with fabulous weather for the joy of Field Day.
• Monday we celebrated St. Madeleine Sophie Barat’s Feast Day with a beautiful, inspiring and educational Prayer Service led by the Social Justice and Student Council leadership teams.
What a fantastic Field Day we had for Classes 1–8 on Friday! Great job, ASH students, faculty and staff! Thanks to all who attended in support of our athletes, and thanks to God for the gorgeous day.
Congratulations to our Seventh Class students who qualified for the Duke TIP talent search this year by having achieved a qualifying score at or above the 95th percentile on a grade-level test. Seventeen students were invited to take the ACT or SAT college entrance test alongside current high school students. The results are in—four students achieved Grand (national) recognition and seven received State recognition. They have been invited to take part in recognition ceremonies at Duke University (Grand recognition) and Drury University (State recognition). We are very proud of all participating students and applaud their hard work and determination. Well done!
