College Summit Mission Statement

The goal of College Summit is to transform the lives of students by preparing them for advanced coursework, by developing academic and life skills that apply to school and beyond, and by establishing a clear post-secondary pathway for the future.

Instructional Goals

This course will lead students to post-secondary success as they prepare themselves for a rigorous post-secondary plan of study in high school and beyond. Throughout their four years of College Summit, students will receive personal guidance as they make choices about building their high school resume, determining a plan of study, narrowing down a future career, and enrolling in college, career, and other training options. Students will also participate in school and community activities during this class.

JROTC is a congressionally mandated and funded course for High School students. It is a 4-year course emphasizing citizenship and leadership with the program’s focus reflected by the mission statement, “To motivate young people to be better citizens.” It is designed to teach high school students the value of citizenship, leadership, service to the community, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment, while instilling in them self-esteem, teamwork, and self-discipline. JROTC is the centerpiece of the Department of Defense’s commitment to America’s Promise for Youth through its emphasis on service learning, community service and teen anti-drug efforts.
