Jason: Ashe Awards Ceremony


Ashe A.C.E.S. care about more than just academics, and this year our scholars at Arthur Ashe Charter won more awards than any year prior. Some celebrated their embodiment of Achievement – Ashe’s first value – by showing high scores and great improvements in academic performance. Others were given recognition in the areas of Community, Excellence, and Self.

In addition to all 400+ scholars at Ashe, all teachers and many families were attended the award ceremony.

For the highest performers, students received more than just a certificate. Gold, silver, and bronze medals were awarded to these shining stars! Parents of medal-winners took home a yard sign to show their pride.

There is no doubt that Ashe is quickly becoming one of the best primary schools in New Orleans, and we want to make sure our scholars know how special they are. So here’s a big CONGRATULATIONS to our A.C.E.S!
