Ravens Rising!

Summit 8th Graders were able to take part in a fun, informative, and memorable ‘Ravens Rising’ Jump Up Day, today.  

 The day started off with our 8th grade students and high school students attending a field trip together to tour the MSU campus. The conditions were wet and windy, but with wonderful tour guides who made the experience warm and whimsical. 

Following this, our 8th graders were able to sit in on a few selected high school classes, offered here at The Summit, to get an idea about what academics will look like in their future. Also, these students were then able to go off campus to nearby places for lunch, a regular privilege that is offered to our high school students.  

To cap off the day, our high school students joined the 8th graders for a few fun social and sport-based activities. Our Upper School team was very delighted to see the amazing interactions between all of these students and look forward to our 8th graders rising up to high school next year! 

Please enjoy some photos from the day:
