“I FEEL LIKE I AM ON TRACK FOR COLLEGE.
THIS IS BECAUSE BY THE TIME I GRADUATE,
SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING WILL BE SECOND
NATURE TO ME.”




OUR APPROACH • Culture of Innovation

Summit serves as a proof point of what is possible when schools are designed with a focus on student success and employing innovative practices.

Our Innovation Cycle is:

Always centered
around what is best
for students

Innovation at Summit starts with our mission: preparing all students for success in college and to be thoughtful, contributing members of society.

Summit's culture of innovation encourages ideas and exploration, but does so through an intentional and thoughtful process to enable a laser-like focus on our mission.

Bases all decisions on actionable data we value

Innovation at Summit follows a Build, Measure, Learn Approach. We rigorously and regularly explore data, identify problems and challenges, develop and implement solutions, and then check back with the data, ensuring we are constantly improving what we do and our students are always receiving the best education.

Grounded in collaboration across
all schools and Summit teams

Innovation at Summit is a process, not a product. It is embedded throughout the entire organization – from students to teachers to school leaders.
