Summit has a lot of events happening this year. For prospective applicants please see the information directly below. For current Summit Scholars please look further down for our calender of events this year.



Summit Scholar Program Calendar (SY 2025–2026)

A full, tentative calendar for the year is linked HERE, including events for admissions and recruitment, parent outreach, student programming, fundraising, service learning, and social gatherings.

Please review the full calendar and save the dates that apply to you. Note, some dates may need to be changed as the year progresses. Mrs. Thomas will notify families of changes via Summit Band and Parent Coffees. 

 

Opportunities to Connect as a Community

There will be a Summit Meet-Up and Fundraiser at Bowie Chipotle on Monday, September 30th.
Bowie High School will receive 25 % of sales that occur 4:00–8:00 pm. If ordering in person you must show the flyer below and if ordering online you must enter the code: AKE6XFF in the Promo Code section.
 
Mrs. Thomas invites scholars and their families to join her for dinner at Chipotle, 6 pm - 7 pm. Mrs. Thomas will be there if you just want to say hello or have questions about the program. This will also be a great time to meet and fellowship with other Summit scholars and their families.
We hope to see you there!
Summit Parent Coffee and Chat
Parents and guardians are invited to join (in person or via Zoom) Mrs. Thomas, the Summit program coordinator, members of our school administration team and counseling team, and local partners and stakeholders to discuss program goals and requirements, services available to students, opportunities to partner with the program and much more. I also invite you to share topics you would like to discuss this school year.

The first Parent Coffee and Chat will be Wednesday, November 5, in the Media Center, Main Campus, 8:00 am - 9:30 am. I will also open a Zoom Room for parents unable to join us in person.  Please complete THIS form by October 27 to help our team prepare for the meeting.

Fall Service Learning Project
Your scholar has the opportunity to participate in the Summit Fall Service Learning Workshop in partnership with Bowie Youth and Family Services. This workshop will give students the chance to address the important topics of bullying and kindness while gaining valuable leadership and service learning experience. Please review the details in the document linked HERE, sign, and return the Parent Permission Form by September 27, 2025.
