Summit
Park Elementary School is committed to maintaining a tradition of
excellence in education. We are dedicated to educating the whole child and
attribute our history of achievement to high academic standards, an
exceptional teaching staff, an effective values program, extensive
community service projects, and our superb parental and community support.
Our
primary focus in the early grades has been to develop our students into
proficient readers and ensure their competencies in mathematics.
As a result, assessment data indicate that our students are doing a
superb job of applying academic skills and processes in meaningful ways in
order to meet or exceed all state and county standards.
Our student achievement goal is focused on reading in the content
areas. Utilizing strategic
reading behaviors, our students are becoming self-sufficient, independent
learners. We continue our focus on developing effective habits of mind
such as organizational skills, study skills, accepting responsibility, and
instilling the notion of pride in one's accomplishments. Challenging our
students to be the very best they can be, preparing them for the future,
and ensuring their success is of primary importance.
Our
staff works together, both in grade level and vertical teams, to ensure
consistency within and across the grades.
We are a learning community - teachers, students, administrators,
and parents dedicated to continuous progress and personal growth to model
our belief that the true value of education is to create life-long
learners who find joy in the learning process.
I invite you to schedule a tour of our school to experience our
invigorating learning environment. Thank you for your interest in Summit
Park Elementary School.
Sincerely,
Diane
