Students & Parents
School Uniform Guidelines
We understand the guidelines are precise, however this is to keep a level playing field for all students and parents and is not in an effort to be unreasonably strict. We LOVE our families and do not want something as simple as a pair of shoes to come between our families, faculty, or students and their relationships! In the spirit of community, we require that everyone adhere to the below guidelines.

CURRICULUM OVERVIEW
Summit Classical Academy teaches all classes from a biblical worldview and uses that framework as the way to understand everything. Subjects are integrated around the truth that God is the Creator of all that exists, and therefore all knowledge is interrelated and points back to Him.
As described by the Association of Classical Christian Schools, a Classical curriculum “incorporates methods based on natural phases of student development, cultivates the seven Christian Virtues, trains student reasoning through the Trivium (Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric), and interacts with the historical Great Books.”
