Summit is amazing, it is a smaller school with many opportunities with sports, clubs, and college preparation. My councilors helped me so much and the other kids made summit so much fun.

I've attended Summit Academy High School for all four years. The great thing about Summit Academy is that it's a small school so everyone knows each other including the teachers. It's easy to get in contact with teachers and fix mistakes that the student or the teacher have made. Engagement in education is really high at Summit Academy. My best experience with Summit Academy is the football team. Being in the football team made me feel like I'm part of the school like a family. The worst part of my experience is online school during the 2020 COVID-19 outbreak. It was difficult to get in touch of teachers since I wasn't there in person. What I would like to see change in Summit Academy High School is more activities to get school culture and spirit up. Summit Academy High School is an amazing school and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I am currently in my early years over going to this school and have found it academically inviting. The environment is generally not very stressful and for the most part, accepting of differences. Discussion and research is encouraged and accepted. Homework is generally set to be helpful though not...
