We are so proud of the hard work and commitment you demonstrated in achieving this goal and we can’t wait to see all you accomplish in the future.
GOOD LUCK & BEST WISHES, GENTLEMEN!!
Today we commemorate and honor the men and women who died while serving our nation and defending our freedom.
No amount of gratitude is sufficient for those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
We are thrilled to congratulate Maxwell C. on his acceptance to Harrisburg Community College and Jacob C. on his acceptance to West Virginia University.
Both students completed their high school requirements at Summit Academy, and we look forward to the great things they will accomplish when they enroll in the fall.
Education really is your ticket to ride in life!!!
We might not have Spring weather yet but bring on the Spring sports.
These young men competed with heart and sportsmanship each time they took the mat.
We could not be more proud of every personal and team accomplishment achieved.
Born into slavery in 1856, Booker T. Washington became one of the leading African American intellectuals of the 19th Century. At 16, he walked 500 miles to attend the Hampton Normal Agricultural Institute in Virginia, working as a janitor to afford his tuition.
He established the National Negro Business League and the Tuskegee Institute, among other schools and businesses. Washington dedicated himself to promoting education and entrepreneurial opportunities for young African Americans.
While the season ended sooner than we hoped, we could not be more proud of our young men!!!
Martin Luther King, Jr., considered the most influential leader of the modern civil rights movement, continues to inspire generations even decades after his death. His staunch message of nonviolence and civil disobedience motivated thousands of protests and boycotts, leading up to his 1963 March on Washington, where he delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech.
Reverend King went on to win a Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 for combatting racial inequality through nonviolent resistance. He was planning a national occupation of Washington D.C. to be called the Poor People’s Campaign when he was tragically assassinated in 1968.
Today, we recognize Dr. King and his countless contributions every January on the national holiday established for him in 1986.
Be there to cheer the boys on to a first-round win!!
