Summit Academy is always happy to host campus visits as we recognize that collaboration is a critical key to continuous quality improvement. We sincerely appreciate the kind words from this Kern County, California Probation Officer, following his recent visit.
"Just want to send you this email thanking you and your staff for a great visit. You should be very proud of the program you are providing youth who have made some mistakes in life and are working to be better citizens upon their return to our communities. Programs like yours simply “Get It”. I left with only one regret: I do not live in PA, but if I did, it would be an absolute honor to work at Summit."
Thanks so much Robert and we look forward to continuing to do great work with Kern County youth!!!
Well deserved recognition for Coach Sherer from the Pittsburgh Coaches Corner and his former Coach Dan McCann. Congratulations
Hello. I was a student at Summit in 2007. I was just thinking about my time there and I have to say that it helped shape me into the person I have become. Since my departure I had some up's and down's but life has really been shaping up for me and one of the staples was being given the chance to spend my time there. I just wanted to forward my appreciation and thank you. Christopher
New Academy Charter School recently had the pleasure of hosting corporate volunteers from companies including BNY Mellon and Bayer Corporation. Groups from both organizations came to complete a variety of projects that greatly enhanced the physical aesthetics of the the school. From painted the exterior courtyard and interior hallways, to cleaning out vacant classrooms to create our new workout room, the faculty and students of New Academy Charter School sincerely appreciate all of the effort contributed by these generous volunteers.
With assistance from a group of generous corporate volunteers from IventHelp, New Academy Charter School continued renovations by painting hallway and restrooms areas. Additionally, motivational messages were added to several spaces to provide inspiration to students and staff throughout their day.
Thank you to all who participated in this event and contributed to making our school an amazing educational environment!

New Outlook Academy held its first annual Chess Tournament on Thursday, October 18, 2018. To enter, students were required to interview with New Outlook Academy Teacher, Zach Gass, and answer questions about the basic rules of chess and demonstrated a few calculated moves. 30 students ultimately competed in the single elimination event. Congratulations to Alexa S. who was the winner of this year's tournament. Challenging spirits and minds – New Outlook Academy.
It will be extremely difficult to replace the impact that Steve Sherer has on our staff and students every day at Summit Academy. But his 42-year career will serve as a legacy and a model for future coaches and counselors alike. Thank you Mr. Sherer.
