It is with great joy that I welcome you to discover Ancillae-Assumpta Academy for your family. Ancillae is home! It is a place where your child will be known and loved for all the wonderful pieces that make him exactly who he is.  It is a place where she will be empowered to take risks, reconcile differences, and lend a hand.  It is a place where families gather to enjoy one another and celebrate the growth of their children from the Stepping Stones Nativity play, to third grade's Living Wax Museum, from a field trip to Washington D.C., to the curtain call of the Spring Show.  In my opinion, there is no better place to grow up than Ancillae-Assumpta Academy. With dedicated teachers, parents, and alumni, students develop the R.I.C.E. values that will carry them through to adulthood.  They leave the Academy with promise and purpose, and of course, an open invitation to always come home.

I began my journey here at Ancillae in 2001 and have never looked back. Working in the classroom, with Student Council, and at Summer Camp, I was energized by the children I met.  Working alongside brilliant school leaders as an administrator, I was inspired to dream for the school and work carefully to make plans happen.  And now as the Director of of Admissions, I am honored to be one of the first faces you meet and the voice on the other side of the phone as you explore the options for your child's future.

I am excited for you to learn all that Ancillae can offer your child and family. Superior fine arts and technology, modeled faith and service, passionate master teachers, curriculum geared to cultivate both innovation and compassion, and a culture that permeates warmth, respect, and grit - it's all here and more...

Learn about the Handmaids of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.  Learn about the philosophy that guides our youngest students.  Learn about the opportunities students have in athletics.  Learn about how we support the diverse needs of our students.  Learn about the ways our community comes together.  Our website is full of information that will help you find if Ancillae is the right fit.

Please reach out with any questions.  I am happy to walk with you on this admissions journey and hope you will find Ancillae-Assumpta Academy to be your home away from home too!

Sincerely,

Kerry Harp
Director of Admissions
