My name is Bridget Carlson, and I am excited to start my first year at Ascent Academy. I am originally from St. Stephen, New Brunswick, a small town on the east coast of Canada known as "Canada’s Chocolate Town" because it is home to Ganong’s, the country's longest-running chocolate factory. That is likely where I developed my permanent sweet tooth.

I now live in Eagle Mountain with my husband, Tyler, our two sons, and our two dogs, so our home is usually full of rowdy chaos. 

I have spent most of my life learning everything I can about Tolkien, dinosaurs, Harry Potter, and Spiderman. I also love reading as many books as I can find time for, usually while snacking on Nerds Gummy Clusters.I am looking forward to joining the dedicated team at Ascent and supporting our goal of providing a positive and safe learning environment for every student. I can't wait to meet you all this year!
