School Children at a Monessori Day School

What Parents are Saying

Read what parents are saying about Summit Private School.

 

  • I can’t believe how time flies and we are in the month of December already.  It seems like yesterday I was dropping my children off at school for the first time and hoping both my husband and I had made the right choice.  What a great experience Summit has been for them as well as Michael and I.  We have already made a few lifetime friends and have settled down into a wonderful and welcome routine.  We feel so at home at Summit and can’t thank you, your husband and the whole Summit family for your collective efforts.  It really is a wonderful place and our boys are so happy and are thriving with their school work.  Michael and I are 100% confident we made the right choice and what a wonderful feeling that is to have everyday. Tracy Sferes

  • I have to thank you again for what all of you are doing for our son. I am more convinced than ever that he would not be progressing as he is at any other school with any other group of people. He was on the borderline of shutting down and hating school a few years ago.

             Now, almost every day he tells me positive comments about great  activities he’s had at school including:

- Having fun working on fractions of all things (Today w/ Ms. Angela)                 – Loving making a glucose molecule (Mr. Sesame)                                                       - Being anxious to write a story because he was so stimulated by the lesson by Tasman’s dad.                                                                                                                         – Not minding staying after school because of the cool science class on Mondays

And I know Ms. Julia is always behind him helping him keep his act together.

Thank you everyone.                                                                                                       Susan Rose (and Rich feels the same way)

  • Finn is very excited to be participating in Tae Kwon Do.   He enjoys your camp so much.  We have tried many different camps over the years here in Boca, and Summit is the ONLY one which he asked to return.  Thanks for creating such a great camp that challenges the mind, body and spirit!

 

  • Last night’s meeting was inspiring all around. The teachers both spoke with such passion and conviction, as did both of you. It is clearer each time we hear all of you present how unique and special this environment is.  The unveiling of the new school was so exciting! It’s going to be  a  great addition to Boca Raton, and a salvation for our children.  Thank you again for your passion, desire and drive in this effort.

 

  • Thank you for everything you do and that you have done for Gatlyn and for our school. It is beautiful to watch the passion and the commitment that you bring to the community. I am sure she was not the one who penned the saying, but Mother always said ”do what you love and you will never work a day in your life”. I see you bring the essence of this philosophy to Summit.  We are lucky to have you.

 

  • Summit Private School has been the best thing to ever happen for my son. He has learned more in his short time here than I can allow myself to believe. More importantly, he has confidence, self esteem and shows so much pride in his school work and his accomplishments. It has been the most caring and nurturing environment and has exceeded even my highest expectations.

 

  • Summit Private School has been nothing but a great experience for my kids and us as a family. There have been many improvements in the school and curriculum in the past few years since the new ownership.I can’t imagine anyone more hardworking, genuine, caring and doing their best to make Summit the best school possible than the Mikes (currents owners). They truly walk their talk.

 

  • Summit has been a wonderful envrionment for my son. He loves attending this school and has adored all of the teahers he has had. I think the new owners are doing a wonderful job running this school and working to help it expand and grow. I intend to keep my son at Summit for as long as possible.

 

 

  • The Summit is a wonderful program, The Staff is the best! They are well educated, warm and friendly. I especially like the school because it is diverse which is hard to do in Boca! They do a good job of representing as many cultures as they can in a positive way through teachers and students. The building is older but they have plans to renew and expand. It is the Yale of Montessori Schools!

 

  • We have found the Montessori environment extremely beneficial to well rounded child development. From the first week we have been able to see impressive daily and weekly development in our child s knowledge and skill levels and our only regret is that we did not start here sooner. The new owners have introduced substantially more extracurricular activities and have shared positive longer term plans for expansion with the parents. The PTA and Parents in general are extremely active and have a decent balance between involvement, wanting the best for their kids and understanding that the teachers know best. Definitely not the typical Boca private school and with the introduction of more sports can only get better. A pity that this   doesn’t go beyond grade 6 yet.
