 Summit is an independent, not-for-profit school. Program expenses are covered by tuition and limited fundraising, which includes grants from foundations, and contributions from individuals in the community who have come to respect our work and have seen the success of our mission. Special projects, which fall outside of the operating budget, and revenue for facilities are funded through creative fundraising efforts. Throughout the year, the Development Office sponsors a variety of events and programs to allow our families and supporters to participate in the life of the school and encourage giving. Our Board of Directors takes the lead in supporting these efforts. In addition, our parent body helps us plan special events and participates. Proceeds from these events (golf tournament, annual auction), are used to support special projects, depending upon the priority as set by the Board of Directors. Support from the community is crucial to Summit’s success. We are indebted to our many donors who support the school each year. We invite your participation in the following initiatives, each of which helps to make a difference in lives of children who learn differently. It’s easy to support The Summit School with the following Money Back Programs. The money from all of these programs really adds up for our school.
