A Message from our Head of School 
Kelley Schiess

Welcome to The Summit.

Thank you for your interest in learning more about how The Summit delivers an extraordinary educational experience.   

Located in the heart of Cincinnati, The Summit serves children starting at 18 months and continues through high school. We are co-educational, Catholic, private, independent and college-preparatory.  

We provide a warm and inclusive culture where each child is known, their God-given talents are valued and relationships flourish.  

Academic rigor, spiritual growth, character-based leadership and attention to physical, social and emotional wellness allow us to provide opportunities that children cannot get anywhere else. 

We develop leaders of character who will value and improve the world they inherit. 

You can learn details about how we do these things by exploring our website. But nothing beats a personal visit. I welcome you to see for yourself all the opportunities we offer.  

At the bottom of every web page, we invite you to take the next step. Schedule a visit. Request information. Or begin your application to give your child an extraordinary educational experience.
