Happy Monday!

This coming Sunday, Punxsutawney Phil will once again demonstrate his meteorological expertise when he emerges from his burrow on Gobbler's Knob to make his 134th prognostication. If he sees his shadow, bundle up for 6 more weeks of winter. If he doesn't, we're in for an early spring!

** We have Drama Club and a NEW Beat Box Club starting this week! Find out more on those and other club offerings below **
The smell of coffee is about to hit Summit's campus. On Friday, our first student went through training with our partners at Sunergos Coffee to learn how to use our new state of the art equipment to brew delicious cups of Sunergos coffee, as well as tea and hot chocolate.
