Academics

Summit Academy offers a first-rate academic program with an emphasis on content that is hands-on, interactive, and engaging. 

Faculty Credentials

We have carefully selected top-notch educators who not only bring enthusiasm, creativity, and excellence to the classroom, but who also embody our mission by exhibiting Christian character, respect, kindness, and professionalism.  Each of our full-time teachers is state-certified, holds a Master's degree in education, and has over 3 decades of classroom teaching experience. Our staff team also includes experienced reading specialists, a special-needs instructor, and a seasoned school administrator.  In addition, our motivated and valuable volunteers provide supplemental instruction in music and the arts and serve as teacher aides in various capacities.  Our low student-to-teacher ratio means that teachers are able to focus on the individual needs and special strengths of each student to ensure maximum academic achievement. 


Curriculum

All of our teaching materials align with the truth of God's Word, enabling students to form a solidly Biblical worldview. Our program director and teachers carefully select each textbook to ensure that it: 
  • challenges students to reach their full academic potential ,while providing all the tools necessary to ensure they'll succeed 
  • fully covers and consistently reviews grade-appropriate content to ensure that students retain what they've learned
  • demonstrates how God's truth lines up with the academic content
  • focuses on instilling in students a real love of learning
  • encourages critical thinking
  • incorporates technology 
  • fits with our program goals

Most of our course materials are published by A Beka. In addition, Summit Academy incorporates materials from Apologia (Science), Saxon (Math), Orton Gillingham (Supplement to Phonics and Reading), and other publishers to ensure that students are building a solid academic foundation in each subject area.
