Summit Parents Association

Every parent of a Summit student is automatically a member of the Summit Parents Association. The SPA is committed to building a strong and inclusive parent community dedicated to enhancing the overall student educational experience at The Summit.

The Summit Parents Association (SPA) supports the Mission of The Summit Country Day School and promotes a strong, integrated and diverse community of parents, faculty, staff and students to enhance the education of our children.

Through programs and events, the SPA provides opportunities for parents to connect with one another and make positive contributions through volunteerism. We look forward to meeting you and helping you get connected as a parent at The Summit.

A Message from Jenny Price, 2024-25 SPA President

On behalf of the Summit Parent Association for the 2024-25  school year, I’d like to welcome you to The Summit!

My name is Jenny Price and I serve as your Summit Parent Association President. My husband Jim ‘95 and I have three girls who have been attending The Summit since Montessori. Crosley is in sixth grade; Billie is in fourth grade and Larkin is in first grade. 

I look forward to celebrating both new adventures and familiar traditions. From seeing kids and families out on the sports sidelines, spiritually in the chapel and around the community and on the dance floor at our One Knight event - our community is growing more and more each day. 

One of my favorite parts of The Summit is the sense of community. Whether it is your first or your 15th year as a Summit parent, I hope you feel a part of that community and join us this year to meet more parents and learn about opportunities to volunteer. The Summit is doing great things, and the SPA is here to support the mission of the school.  

I look forward to working with you! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can answer any questions about the SPA and the Summit community.  

Sincerely,  
Jenny Price, SPA President
