News & Events to Come
NOW ENROLLING
Summit Academy continually takes applications for enrollment in their Cincinnati Transitional High School. Please contact the school office to receive an application and to set up a meeting with the Director.
New Breakfast/ Lunch Policy
Per a new policy, students will now be required to order breakfast and lunch for the whole month in advance. If you receive free lunch, students still need to mark the days you would like meals. If a student is absent, there are no credits due to the fact that meals are pre-ordered. We will be sending home the next month’s menu and order form on the third Monday the month before. It is very important that students return these forms on time, or they will not be able to get lunch that day. Please contact the office if you have any questions. Thanks for your cooperation!
All forms will be accessible under the printable forms column.
School Fees
Just a friendly reminder that payments for student fees are due the first day of each month. This fund helps provide for field trips, supplies, student activities, etc. and stays 100% within our school. If you forget which plan you signed up for or would like to change your plan, please contact the office. Payments may be made any school day with cash or check and can be dropped off at the office. If you are interested in setting up a credit card payment, please contact the office. Thanks!

PTST Fundraiser
Thank you to everyone who participated in our first Theme Friday and wore their favorite team jersey.
Jeans Friday and Theme out of Uniform Day Fundraiser
As a school-wide fund raiser, we are again offering Jeans Friday to Summit Students. Each Friday you can pay $2 to wear jeans with your Summit Shirt.
Homeroom teachers will collect money and deduct Summit Bucks on Friday morning. If you come wearing jeans on Friday and have not paid, you will be sent to the office to make a phone call home. Someone will have to bring you khakis. No freebies and no IOU’s, as this would not be fair to others who have paid.
Also, we are going to introduce Theme Days. The last Friday of every month we will have a theme out-of-uniform day and you can pay to participate. This will be $5 to participate. Dates and themes will be announced a week in advance each month.
