Summit Day of Service: Saturday, March 9, 2024
The Summit Parents Association is excited to offer our third annual school-wide Day of Service on Saturday, March 9, 2024.
Four projects will allow us to serve our local community both on and off our campus. Our nonprofit partners have designed special projects just for Summit students and families; if you are able, please sign up to help and wear your Summit spirit wear.
