BG Image Summit Successes When students come to Summit, we see an improvement in academic achievement but we also see an overall transformation in their confidence and how they perceive school. The effects are long lasting and contribute to their success in high school, college, and life. My transition to The Summit School changed everything. I learned to read, but more importantly, I learned what I needed to succeed. For as far back as I could remember, my weaknesses were what had always defined me in school. At Summit, it was the opposite. The teachers emphasized focusing on your strengths and using those things to overcome shortcomings and get things done in different ways.” Andre Allen, Class of 2018 Biomedical Sciences Major, McDaniel College Summit has provided me with the necessary skills and mental fortitude to achieve anything I put my mind to. Without Summit, I don't believe I would be where I am today.” Adam Taylor, Class of 2012 MBA from American University The individualized lesson plans in tandem with the strengths-based approach to education at Summit gave me the courage, resilience, and confidence that I have carried with me since. My teachers recognized and nourished my innate curiosity, and taught me in unique ways accordingly - making it fun to learn again.” Emma Mugford, Class of 2011 ABA Therapist and enrolled in Doctoral of Psychology Program, George Washington University With every accomplishment I achieved after Summit, I know the impact Summit had on my life made all the difference.” Dr. Billy Vermillion, Class of 2002 Postdoctoral Fellow at Yale Department of Cardiology Summit teachers go above and beyond every time!
