Happy Testimonials from Real Parents and Students

"Summit is an amazing school! I am in the early college program, so i don't take my classes at summit but rather through a local community college, but summit has been amazing at planning enrichment events, planning and advising my classes, etc."

"Summit Learning Charter is a small, eclectic school. My favorite part is the community--the students and teachers are really good at building a community where no one gets left out. I would like it if Summit had sports teams of some kind, since that is not currently available, and having more campuses would also be nice. It's a very good school, though, with a great Early College program."

Early College

"Summit Learning Charter's Early College program has allowed me to attend my local Community College as a Junior and Senior in high school so as to earn my high school diploma as well as my Associates Degree simultaneously. Although through this particular program I exclusively attend classes at the college, I have still made wonderful connections with the students and staff at SLC, even though I do not technically attend the SLC campus in person. SLC has K-12 grades as well as Early College students, and still makes the efforts of making connections and successes for their students!"

"The flexibility of class options so that school can fit in with other activities without sacrifices. Thanks to the online classes, I was able to work hard and save money for college, play high school and club soccer, and do other fun activities!"
