Summit is a great school. Summit has really help my son. He was refusing to go to school now he loving go to school. I saw a total different in him within the first couple of weeks. He has become a total different person. I was a parent who would away rescue him in every situation. I feel be both have changed. I feel we both depended on each other. I feel sometimes as a parent you have of that connection of your child in positive way.
