Kumasi Anglican Secondary School (KASS) is a co-educational secondary school founded in 1973. It is situated in Asem, a suburb of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. The present headmaster is Mr. Alex Conduah.

The school's vision is to achieve academic excellence through discipline. It also aims to mould the character, conduct and behaviour of students in order to make them useful and upright citizens of the country.

The school's mission is to ensure student compliance with school rules and regulations, and the provision of relevant inputs to enhance teaching and learning, in order to realize the vision of the school.

The school's crest is composed of four elements: a golden shield with purple outline; a purple and white bishop's mitre; a purple Akan male stool; and a white scroll bearing the motto of the school, "Unity, truth and service". The shield refers to the "shield of faith" in Ephesians 6:16. The shield is also a symbol of defence and security. The indigenous Akan male stool in the centre of the insignia represents the contribution of traditional authorities towards the establishment and growth of the school. These contributions include the provision of land, guidance, and encouragement. The Anglican bishop's mitre symbolizes the school's religious affiliation with the Anglican Church. The mitre sitting on the stool also represents peace, harmony, and unity between the Church and the society through education. The white scroll located on the lower half of the crest bears the school’s motto: "Unity, Truth and Service". Three colours are found in the school's crest: gold symbolizes honour and loyalty; purple symbolizes priesthood and kingship; white symbolizes purity and virtue.
