Summit Montessori School is an independent Montessori school and a community dedicated to developing respectful, self-motivated, life-long learners. Our goal at Summit is to provide the most substantial and enriching learning experience for each of our students. A good education is the result of many hands, and we at Summit rely on the generosity and involvement of our community members to support the work that goes on in the classroom.
Part of the magic at Summit Montessori comes from the unusually intimate atmosphere we create. Our “small by design” size allows us to personalize each student’s education and celebrate each student’s individuality. Our goal is to ensure that our students receive an excellent education that prepares them for middle and high school, and ultimately for life beyond the classroom. But we are also committed to educating and nurturing the whole child, which includes compassionate attention to each student’s social and emotional growth.
Summit accomplishes its work with the limited resources of a small institution through the vision and diligence of dedicated teachers, administrators, trustees, volunteers, and donors. Our extended community helps lay the foundation for a viable, solvent future and a strong educational program through its generous and regular annual giving.
The Summit Fund, our School’s annual fund, closes the gap between the actual cost of an education and the tuition we receive. Every gift has an impact; every gift makes a positive difference to every student, every teacher, and every classroom.
Our School would truly be a diminished place without the generosity of our parents, grandparents, trustees, faculty, staff, and friends. We are tremendously grateful for the support of our entire community as we work to shape the next generation.
