Academics

Middle School

The middle school years are a time of exciting, if challenging, growth and development. In addition to an increase in enriching academic demands, our students have more opportunities for artistic, physical, social/emotional, and spiritual development. During this time, character development is as key to future success as development in any other area. Beginning in fifth grade, there is an increase in focus on organizational skills, goal setting, self advocacy, and moral integrity. Our efforts are working as, year after year, our alumni tell us that they are well prepared for all of the demands that they faced during their high school years.
Asheville Catholic School's mission is to inspire our students to change the world as Christian leaders.  With this end in mind, we accept all who are open to learning about how God guides us, through the teachings of Christ, to love Him above all, and love others as ourselves.  As part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Charlotte, we welcome all with open arms.
