On Tuesday, February 28th, we are having what we formerly called our 8th Grade Parent Night, now known as Future SkyHawk Welcome Night. It starts at 6:00 PM in the Gym. Find out how to be prepared for high school, meet our awesome teachers and staff, learn about our Athletic and Arts Programs, enjoy several performances, and grab a snack from our student clubs who will be selling food and beverages. Campus tours will also be provided by our friendly Link Crew Leaders.
- On that same note, parents, if you’re facing challenges with your student and want to speak with an administrator or counselor, please don’t hesitate to contact us. As always, we are here to support you and to work with you to give your student the very best education possible. Often times it is easier to reach someone via their email, so at the end of this email there is an email list for your quick reference.
Thank you for keeping Summit soaring!
Keep soaring SkyHawks!

There will no longer be any cash sales for any athletic events here at Summit. Football, Volleyball and Basketball games will now be cashless through GoFan. You can still pay cash for these games if you buy your tickets at the Bookkeeper's window up until the end of 2nd lunch on the day of the game, but no cash will be taken at the entrance going forward. QR codes will be posted at the entrances so that you may purchase tickets with a credit or debit card. You can also purchase tickets in advance online using the link on our Athletics website, www.fusd.net/summitathletics As always, if you have an ASB card, you get into all sporting events free! See you at the game!!! | |
This Week in the Counseling Office!
FAFSA/CADAA Deadline is Approaching!
Seniors! Have you completed your FAFSA or CADAA application? If you don’t submit your FAFSA or CADAA application by the deadline you might be missing out on free money to pay for college or career school! The priority deadline is March 2nd.
Class Schedule Registration
Attention Sophomores! Starting this month, the counseling team will be visiting your World History classes to provide information for the 2023-24 school year. Counselors will also be assisting students in selecting their classes for the next school year. Your World History teacher will inform you of the day the counseling team will visit your classroom. Please prepare any questions you may regarding scheduling for the next school year. Also, plan to be present during the classroom visits.
Cash For College Webinar (Multiple Dates Available)
Is the thought of how you will pay for college, university, or vocational school something that worries you? California is offering thousands of dollars in financial aid to eligible students. To learn more about the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the California Dream Act Application (CADAA) sign up for one of the upcoming webinars. To sign up for a webinar, please visit https://www.csac.ca.gov/cash-college.
College and Financial Aid Applications
Attention Seniors! The application window for CSU, UC, and FAFSA/CA Dream Act is now open.
As a reminder, keep track of all the deadlines (UC/CSU schools, Private Colleges, scholarships, FAFSA/CA Dream Act), read the instructions, give sufficient time to recommenders to write your letter of recommendation, and provide all the requested information.
Your counselor is available by appointment to assist you with your college and/or financial aid application.
FSA ID
Seniors, if you haven’t already done so create your FSA ID. The FSA ID (account username and password) allows students and parents to identify themselves electronically to access Federal Student Aid websites. It is also used to quickly sign your FAFSA application and have it processed. If you have questions, please visit studentaid.gov or visit the “Financial Aid” Teams Channel.
