About Us

At The Ascent, we believe that strong writers can come from anywhere, regardless of age. We strive to create a community of passionate student voices, and we want to push the boundaries of student journalism. We publish monthly hardcopies featuring student reporting ranging from school news, to universal problems, and we share our opinions about anything in between. We feature a diverse team, ranging from 6th-12th grade, and it is our aim to encourage aspiring writers not to shy away from candid journalism.
