"As a Summit lifer, my Summit story begins way back in Montessori. My parents, committed to providing the best possible foundation for their children to grow, found the Summit begin that work. There are too many faculty & staff that changed the course of my life to name, but I routinely say that I use more of the tools I gained at the Summit each day than at any other level of my education. I'm proud to now be the parent of two Summit students in the hopes they build that same foundation."

ENROLLMENT COMMITTEE, MEMBER
Bachelor's in Political Science, Depauw University
4th Grade Educational Assistant, Summit Lower School
"The Summit has been a key fixture in my life for nearly 30 years. I attended as an Amelia Hamberg Foss '24 Scholar, and my brother, Jeff Roth '02, attended as a Fragge Scholar. My oldest child, Russell (2031), began attending as a 3-year-old in 2016, followed by Corrina and Jack. They are now in 6th, 4th, and 1st grades, and are thriving here in a place I love and respect. I began attending The Summit as a freshman and was always very impressed (and quite frankly a little intimidated) by the breadth and depth of knowledge that Summit "Lifers" displayed. My wife Jackie and I feel beyond blessed that our children are the recipients for such an education. I also feel blessed to now be part of The Summit staff.
I am heavily involved with coaching all three children in various sports, and serve on the Pastoral Advisory Board for my family of Catholic parishes, representing St. John the Evangelist in West Chester. I also serve with the Knights of Columbus, and am involved in both Cub and Boy Scouts. I truly look forward to serving on The Summit Alumni Board!"
