Summit Academy is a co-educational, independent school offering a program
of academic excellence to both Bahamian and international students. The
school is located in Nassau, Bahamas and serves students in pre-school
through grade six (with an extension to eighth grade by fall 2005). The
school achieves academic excellence by providing an innovative curriculum,
small class sizes and a structured, nurturing environment designed to
optimize the learning potential of each student.
Summit Academy was born out of the genuine desire of the principal to
create a school that offered everything that parents wanted for their
children, but could never quite seem to find in the traditional school
setting. Small class sizes, individualized learning, highly trained and
enthusiastic teachers, along with a well-balanced academic and creative
arts curriculum are the hallmark of Summit Academy. Each student enrolled
at Summit Academy is afforded the rare opportunity to experience the true
meaning of personalized education.
Rather than applying a “one size fits all”
standard, Summit Academy is founded on the principle that learning systems
have to be sufficiently flexible and adaptable to meet the individualized
needs of its student population.
At Summit Academy, we attend not only to the intellectual but also to
the emotional, physical and artistic needs of each child. We aspire
to help each child embrace a cheerful and healthy life. At Summit, we
have created a multi-cultural, non-denominational Christian value based
environment that teaches children to respect themselves and the differences
of others.
Embracing and encouraging diversity, Summit Academy admits students
of any race, religion, color and national or ethnic origin.
