Our Mission

Summit Academy empowers students in grades 6–12+ to Reset, Connect, Restore, and Return—equipping them with resilience, confidence, and the skills needed for academic and personal success.

• Reset: A fresh start for students facing disciplinary, attendance, or academic struggles

• Connect: Building meaningful relationships and reconnecting with learning

• Restore: Rebuilding confidence through restorative practices and support

• Return: Preparing students for graduation or successful reintegration into their home schools

We envision Summit Academy as a place where every learner develops the knowledge, skills, and mindset to pursue higher education, secure meaningful employment, contribute to their community, and lead a fulfilling life.

Our mission is to provide every student with high-quality, inquiry-based, and project-oriented instruction in a collaborative, student-centered environment—supported by ongoing professional development for our staff.

Enrollment

Summit Academy supports students who:

• Struggle in traditional school settings

• Face behavioral or emotional challenges

• Are involved in the court or juvenile justice system

• Need a more structured and supportive environment

• Are working to recover credits and stay on track for graduation

Students are referred to Summit Academy by their home school districts

The process involves:

• Initial contact with the family by the home school counselor or administrator

• A collaborative meeting with the student, family, home school team, and Summit Academy staff

• Completion of a referral packet by the home school in partnership with the family

Referral and enrollment packets are only accepted from a student’s home school. For questions, contact us at admissions@roe4.org.

Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS)

Summit Academy implements a comprehensive MTSS framework to meet students’ academic, behavioral, and emotional needs through:

• Tiered academic supports tailored to individual learning goals

• Behavioral and social-emotional interventions

• Ongoing progress monitoring

• Collaborative problem-solving with families and staff

We believe no student is too far behind when the right supports are in place.

Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Support

Social-emotional growth is a core part of the Summit Academy experience. We offer:

• Daily check-ins and structured classroom support

• Individual and group counseling

• Restorative practices and positive behavior reinforcement

• Tools for emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and relationship-building

• Support from licensed clinicians, counselors, and behavior specialists

Our team works together to create a safe, structured environment where students can build healthy connections and lifelong coping skills.
