Summit School Coordinates Graduation with Students' Home School

Summit staff members communicate closely with the home high school to ensure students successfully earn the necessary credits to meet graduation requirements. When students are ready to graduate, they may participate in Summit School's completion ceremony, as well as, their home school graduation ceremony. Students receive a certificate of program completion from Summit School and a diploma from the home high school.
