| Public Schools |
|
| The schools
of Summit-public, private and parochial-have continually
molded good and able young people with 92 % of the students
going onto college, contributing much to the community's
development. Just recently, Summit High School was ranked
the 6th best high school in the State of New Jersey. Many
students return to live and raise a family in their home
town of Summit.
Summit's public education system includes five kindergarten-through
grade 5 elementary schools, a middle school for grades
6 to 8 and Summit High School. As Summit grew into a
beautiful resourceful city for families, so too did
the need to provide top-rated education and state-of-the-art
school facilities for Summit's children. In 2003, the
newly renovated Summit High School was dedicated after
a $22.4 million capital expansion project. The project
comprised of a new wing, library/media center, gymnasium,
and the addition of academic courses, cultural arts,
athletic and social club programs; all providing an
enriched educational experience for all current and
future Summit students.
