SUMMIT ACADEMY STUDENTS GIVING BACK!
Summit Academy students Carl L.(Philadelphia), Marquan H. (Allegheny Co.), Elijah F. (Monroe), Danny M. (Raliegh, WV), and Ethan M. (Riverside, CA) had the opportunity to volunteer at Elliot Acres Riding Center. Elliot Acres is a therapeutic equestrian riding center for children with disabilities. During the two days that the students were there, they installed fence posts for a new fence surrounding an apple tree to divert the horses away from enjoying the apples. On day two, the students performed additional landscape projects!
This is one of our favorite community service project venues and we thank Elliot Acres for the invitation to contribute to their mission.
Summit Academy student Jandell N. (Berks Co.) took the American Welding Society D1.1 Welder Qualification Test. We encourage our students to work toward testing as one of the best ways to advance their welding career opportunities. These specialized certifications are incredibly valuable for employment in the welding industry. Congrats Jandell!!!!
