ABOUT ACS
Annunciation Catholic School, established in 1914, is a Catholic, co-educational elementary school that takes great pride in its long history of strong academics and service to the community of Clifton, and greater Cincinnati. Our academic programs blend together with our Catholic identity & values to help us attain our goal of developing the whole child - mind, body, and spirit.
Annunciation's current Kindergarten through Grade 8 enrollment is 141 students and is marked by the cultural diversity for which we have become known. Along with that rich diversity our 15 to 1 Teacher to Student ratio makes for dynamic teacher/student relationships in which every child receives the attention he/she needs to succeed. Passionate Faculty, strong relationships, challenging academics, and a focus on the whole person... Now that sounds like the Tradition of Catholic Education!
Mission Statement
Annunciation is a Catholic parochial school committed to enhancing the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical well-being of each individual student.

The school prepares the multi-cultured student body to confidently meet life's future challenges in a way that upholds the teachings of Jesus through service to the Church, community, and the world.

Students will develop honorable virtues and ethics, which will be reflected in their daily lives. Annunciation School embraces its multi-cultured student body, believing it is through this diverse environment that a sense of virtue is instilled, respect for every person is fostered, a desire to improve society is sparked and a feeling of tolerance and acceptance will flourish.
