Introduction to Summit Learning

Summit Learning is the foundation of Summit Public Schools' 15 years of success and is based on collaborations with nationally acclaimed learning scientists, researchers and academics from institutions including the Harvard Center for Education Policy Research, the Buck Institute of Education and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, among others.

Summit's research-backed approach leads to better student outcomes. Summit students are also able to articulate what they are learning, why they are learning and how they learn best. They can advocate for themselves, know their passions and interests and have a long-term goal and plan rooted in these passions and interests.

Summit Learning at Project Impact STEM Academy

Project Impact STEM Academy uses the Summit Learning platform as a digital portfolio of your students progress. Summit Learning supports our mastery based learning approach and provides a universal rubric for grades 4th-12th grades. Project Impact STEM Academy modeled this concept of a universal rubric and has developed a primary-level universal rubric for mastery grading for the state of Idaho. Project Impact STEM Academy customizes a large portion of the Summit curriculum to fit within our STEM-based PBL units. This involves creating our own units or remodeling units provided by Summit to fit our unique model.
