The Summit School - May Open House

Join us to see our program in-person and learn how Summit educates bright students who learn differently.

Is The Summit School right for my child?

Summit makes sense for students who:

• demonstrate weaknesses in language processing, working memory, comprehension or organization
• are bright and want to learn, but are falling behind
• are encountering difficulty with reading, writing, spelling, math, organization or self-management
• thrive when teachers listen and adapt to individual needs
• are most successful when learning is active and expectations reflect their learning profile.

Summit student profiles might include dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, processing difficulties, memory challenges, weak language abilities, as well as attention and executive function concerns.

Our program is designed with the intention that our students can ultimately attend a mainstream school.Our program is not designed to serve students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), a severe communication disorder, a behavior disorder, or children who fall below the average range on measures of cognitive ability. In addition, we do not serve students with a primary diagnosis of Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Our students may have ADHD in addition to a diagnosis of a learning difference.

Why do Summit students succeed?

The Summit School’s expertise lies in closing the gap in literacy, math, written language, and organization. If your child is not progressing in their current school or has a learning difference such as dyslexia, we invite you to learn more about Summit and how we teach differently.

Learn how Summit’s well-rounded program and research-based teaching methodologies create an environment where students thrive and meet their individual potential.

• Teachers maximize students’ strengths and support areas of weakness.
• Summit empowers students and prepares them for success in high school, college, and beyond.
• With a strong foundation, the possibilities are endless!
