The freedom and ability to impact the mind, body and spirit of a student is the most important aspect of Christian Education.
Summit Christian delivers an education package complete with a strong emphasis on the spiritual component
of a well-rounded Christian Education.

Summit is a private, non-denominational, not-for-profit Christian School. The purpose of Summit Christian School is to provide a distinctive quality Christian education founded on the principle that Jesus is our Savior and the source of all truth. We expand this principle and show how this truth can be applied in all facets of life. Bible is a required subject in all grades. Utilizing the best available Christian texts and curriculum, students are taught how to read and understand the Bible and apply its foundations to modern living. Biblical principles are integrated into the daily lives of students through all subject areas, sports and social activities. K5 - 12th grade students attend a weekly chapel service geared to their level of understanding. Middle and High School Students begin each weekly chapel with praise and worship music presented by a praise & worship team of students.

To further develop the character of our students, we offer opportunities for them to participate in Community Service Projects. To graduate from Summit, High School students must earn a total of 100 hours of community service. They are encouraged to complete 25 hours each high school year by either participating in various events at school or by getting involved with their community needs. Our Elementary takes many opportunities to introduce students to community and global needs as they experience ministry through classroom sponsorship of foreign missionaries with prayer support, donations and personalized tokens of encouragement. Summit Christian School students also serve the community locally with other programs such as Environmental Services (beach clean up, etc.), Food for Families and Blood Bank Blood Drives.

Summit Christian School takes pride in its state and nationally recognized Fine Arts program. The Fine Arts are incorporated into daily life at Summit.  Elementary through High School students locally participate in a wide range of programs which amplify a student’s talents and stretch their educational capacity.  Each spring, the students in 1st - 12th grades compete in various competitions sponsored by the Florida Association of Christian Colleges and Schools and American Associations of Christian Schools. 

The competitions include:
     • Spelling Bee (Regional and State in 1st - 9th grades)
     • Creative Writing (Regional, State, and National in 1st - 9th grades)
     • Brain Bowl academic quizzing competition (State in 9th - 12th grades)
     • Junior Fine Arts (Regional and State in Music, Art, Speech in 3rd - 9th grades)
     • High School Fine Arts (State and National levels of competition in categories such as Bible, Music, Art, Speech,
       Theatre and various forms of Academic Testings for 9th - 12th grades)
