the best part are the variety of extracurriculars available and the students who are passionate. the worst part are the few teachers who don't seem to really care about students' learning, but there are more teachers who do care than don't

Summit high school is in bend Oregon. There are 5 high schools including summit. All of the schools are a little different and there cultures are different to. Summit high school is in a bubble. At summit there is no diversity. I am asian southeast Asian and going to summit is very tough for me. The summit halls are very uncomfortable. School is supposed to be a safe space. At summit there's no safe space. At summit the teachers and all the staff say that there doors are open if you need to talk to someone. When I went to a trusted teacher and told them something that had happened to me. The teacher didn't care enough to do something about it. I might add that it was a serious topic. I think summit is a good school but the culture and how kids are at the school are what makes it tough and bad. Summit could become better but I think it still has a ways to go to get there.

I came from a small catholic school when I was in grade school and middle school and when I started at Summit it was at the height of Covid. We were doing online classes and and after a few months half of us go to school for 2 days and the other half goes the other 2 days. I did not get overwhelmed by the size of the school as I came gradually because of the Covid restriction. It was a good starting point and after we get back fulltime, I was getting to know my classmates and gaining a lot of froends. I like the teachers extra effort of helping the students when we needed some help. This makes us special and important. One thing, I did not like is when the school closed all the bathrooms because some students are using it to smoke. I feel like they are punishing everyone with few small amount of students who are at fault. I dont think there would be any changes that I would like to see. My overall experience at Summit so far was happy and exciting.

I went here for a short but wonderful 1 1/2 years, left second semester of my sophomore year and I just say, it's a lovely school. The staff is amazing but it does depend on what you look for in staff members, as they're not strict and act like high schoolers themselves while still being kind and he...

This school is a reflection of what is wrong with American society. The level of entitlement and narcissism is unbelievable. The students are spoiled and are entitled to everything and they love to put others beneath them. The staff is lazy and rude, and they don't actually care about the students....

This school is terrible from stuck up kids, to bullying this school cares more about athletics than academics. Worse experience in schooling ever!
