Happy Testimonials from Real Parents and Students

"SLC was a great school for me and I liked the flexibility. It had all the flexibility of an online school while still offering in-person classes, tutoring, and study hall for high schoolers. I really liked all my teachers there, they were always helpful, understanding, and they leave good feedback on assignments. If you are considering the online school route I would choose this school over connections or k-12 because it's smaller and more personal, and you get to meet with your classmates and go to in-person classes while still having mostly online work. (you can do everything online though if you want so don't worry) They also have events and free tutoring for all the subjects."

"I have a child in jr high and a child in high school. Both kids like the flexibility of classes and the enthusiasm their teachers bring to classes (both in person and virtually). They like how the school is pretty low-drama and focused on learning in fun ways. We’re super satisfied with our choice to attend Summit Learning Charter."

"I did most of middle school and all of high school at Summit Learning Charter. I enjoyed the oppourtunity to do early college at Mt. Hood Community College the most. I also made my dearest friend there. It was better than public school from what I've heard."
