This school is just beautiful. Its been over 10 years since I went here but it really shaped me as a person. Even after leaving for middle school, I came back and volunteered until all the teachers who had taught me had left. The teachers really care about the students. They accommodated the needs of students very well, and they formed connections with students that still have an impact on me until this day. I wish I could experience those days again. This school provided such a good stepping stone into academics, even when their resources were spread thin, they tried to help each student get what they needed. Afterschool programs were amazing too. I remember my favorite program was shut down due to funding issues, but they still provided afterschool care if it was needed. I have vivid memories of sitting in the library well after school was done, and the librarian (and lunch lady) cut me up an apple and sat down with me. The staff really care about their students. The community is great too. Friendships I made in elementary school are still going strong to this day. I believe I am the person I am today partly because of Summerland School. It was a godsend!!!!
