Summit Charter School Reviews

 
I rate Summit Charter a 10. I have two children that attend and they have both excelled beyond belief at Summit Charter. I recommend this school to any parent that has a child with SLD.

I have seen a total positive change in my daughter. Her self esteem and grades are up and she is happy. Before she didn't fit in and hated school. The teachers are excellent and devoted. The school caters to ADHD and it's free.

I was an former Teacher Assistant at Summit Charter School, when the west campus was open. The Teachers need help. all the teachers but they are not doing what is necessary to acquire the help needed. I assisted Mrs. Britten class for the 2006-2007 school year, I had a blast, those student taught me a lot, i was amazed by their talents, confidence, abilities, and even their characters. Myself and the other Assistants that taught their that year, misses them dearly. I hope and pray that Summit Charter School (Maitland and Princeton campuses) are doing right by the student who were at the West Campus

I agree with most of the parents at this school. I have 2 children that attend this school and they love it and their teachers, they also love Mr.McCullough. I agree that the school needs to quit changeing the teachers every year and keep the same teachers, our kids our SLD students they need the stucture that Summit gives them and the teachers that know them and what they need

I agree with the previous review.Poor communication from the teachers and office staff are terrible.Luckily my child was very vocal about telling me what was happening at this school.Also by me being the concern parent that I am. I had to make sure their t's were crossed and i's are dotted.

Poor communication from the teachers, 1 to 24 ratio, they have no teacher assistances, for the kids with ld ? Principle doesnt return phone calls

My child attends Summit. Overall, I give the teachers high marks for professionalism and the way they are able to work with my child. I give absolutely zero out of ten for the leadership demonstrated by Dr. Palmer. He is an administrator that is too busy for parents and doesn't understand he works for us.

I have two children at Summit. They have progressed far beyond all the expectations that their previous techers at regular public schools had for them. They both had reading and math skills far below their grade levels when they started at Summit. Now they both pass the FCAT every year and are reading and doing math two to four years above their grade levels. Summit Charter uses amazing techniques to teach reading and math. They gave my children the gift of reading. I will always be grateful to their amazing taechers.

My 10yr daughter has made great strides in this school. She came to this school as a 4th grader, but at a learning level of 1st grade. She's already starting to work at 3rd grade work in just 1 year, unbelievable.

The school continues to grow and expand without a necessary foundation of teachers. The turnover rate with teachers is rather high and if they can lessen this, their charter could be fulfilled. However, new teachers are brought in each year and the training is too high a cost and the expense of the children. Since they are focused on SLD children, the teaching staff should remain a constant and not have the children used as guinea pigs for the training.
