We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall great four years, amazing teachers. But would love to see more school spirit and excitement from the administrators, also more prepping and helping students with not just applying to college but everything in that process.

Summit High School which is located in Colorado has given me the opportunity to not only excel in academics but to excel outside the classroom in mountain biking and ski racing. Being able to live and go to school so close to a mountain gives you opportunities that are amazing not only for your mind but for your body. I don't think there are any schools out there where you can get done with classes and get on the hill and night ski. speak Community here is one of the best as it is full of athletes and stars all across Colorado who learn from each other and work together as a team I would never choose another high school to go to.

Cliques and teachers who will give into lies and rumors. An unfair atmosphere for others. I was bullied for my nationality and race despite what saying that will do too my public image. I do not recommend this school. The dean is highly suspicious of others for no apparent reason. She likes too appr...
