It allows us the opportunity to enhance a student's self image, student-teacher relationships and behavioral performance. We provide each individual the opportunity to explore a variety of post graduation goals including post-secondary education and a multitude of career choices. Summit School calls upon students and staff to create an atmosphere that promotes growth while ensuring the physical and emotional well-being of everyone in the Summit School community. This allows for the safe exchange of ideas and the feelings as well as providing for opposing and varying points of view. Behavior - Students must not be a danger to themselves or others and be able to monitor and manage their behaviors with staff feedback.
Most successful students have a desire to participate.
This requires students to give and accept feedback in an emotionally safe manner. Students must be able to provide a physically and emotionally safe environment to allow others the same opportunity. Students who are accepted are making a choice to set goals, receive feedback, help create and maintain an emotionally safe environment, participate in all ABC activities, and make an effort to develop more appropriate behaviors. The nature of the ABC activities provides staff and students opportunities to gain insight into behaviors that are impacting on their success. It also allows us to provide feedback to them while they are exhibiting those behaviors.
