Dear Guardian Families,
We are excited to announce school supplies for the 2023-2024 school year will be provided! This includes daily supplies for all K-12 students, classroom supplies, and textbooks or workbooks. Your student(s) will need a backpack, lunch box, and water bottle, in addition to the required uniform items. Should teachers request additional items for their students or classroom, families will be given at least one week's notice.

Schoolpool
We are pleased to partner with Schoolpool again for the 2023-2024 school year. This free program is a service of Way to Go, a federally funded program of the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG). It is designed to help parents with school transportation but there is no obligation to participate.
To register, go to our unique school registration link on Way to Go. If you register to participate, you will receive an email from waytogo@drcog.org informing you of the closest Ascent families.
Through Way to Go's secure website, you can add comments to indicate special requests or preferences, such as "can provide morning rides in exchange for afternoon rides," or "student is in after-school activities".
If you are interested in participating in carpooling, it is your responsibility to contact families to make arrangements. The information is also a great resource to meet nearby Ascent families for other reasons such as temporary transportation needs, playdates, and babysitters.
Information provided by Schoolpool from Way to Go is for your use only. Ascent Classical Academies and Way to Go do not run background checks, confirm valid driver’s licenses or assess insurance coverage on participants. Potential users are advised to screen participants to their personal satisfaction and check their own insurance coverage for carpooling to ensure that they are covered under these voluntary arrangements. No drivers, vehicles, or insurance are provided.
Please note, if you wish to participate, you MUST complete the form. Your information will not be shared unless you register.

Post Cards
Mr. Jones has already received post cards from some of our students who traveled to Portugal, Romania, Mt. Princeton, New Mexico, and Virginia! Remember, if you send him a post card as you travel this summer he will display the entire collection prominently in late-August when students return.
Mail Postcards to:

If the cost of paying instructional fees creates financial hardship, please email dougco.office@ascentclassical.org to discuss other arrangements. Student fees are waived for families who qualify for free-and-reduced lunch status, which includes indigent, homeless, and foster students.
Families who anticipate qualifying for, or have previously qualified for free-and-reduced lunch status must submit a new FEDS (Family Economic Survey Data) form for the 2023-2024 school year to qualify for financial assistance, including waived instructional fees, free-and-reduced lunch, and assistance with uniform expenses.
Please note, forms for the 2023-2024 school year may not be signed and dated before July 1, 2023. Beginning July 1, we encourage your family to complete this form and send it back to campus registrar Mrs. Rogers to process.
If you are applying for FRL status, please contact Mrs. Rogers to ensure your intentions are known and guarantee your student's seat is secured. Please drop off or mail forms to the school by July 12.

If you are a new or returning family interested in hosting, please complete this sign up form and email Mrs. Clay with specific dates, times, and RSVP information.
