Summit Public Schools is a charter management organization (CMO) that operates eleven schools, eight in the San Francisco Bay Area and three in Washington. The headquarters is located in Redwood City, California.
Summit is the recipient of a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. [1]
Prior schools included Summit Rainier in East San Jose, CA (closed in June 2020) and Summit Denali in Sunnyvale, CA (closed in June 2023).
The pedagogy employed at Summit schools, dubbed "Summit Learning," is a personalized, project-based learning (PBL) curriculum that puts students "in charge" of their own learning. [2] [3] [4]
Courses are built around projects done at students' own paces instead of traditional coursework modules, and teachers focus their energy on tutoring individual students as many grading functions are automated. [5]
