School Choice

South Summit School District proudly offers families the freedom to choose the educational path that best suits their child’s needs. We understand that each student learns differently, with unique interests and goals.

Our diverse educational options include:

• Traditional neighborhood schools with strong academic foundations
• Career and Technology Education (CTE)
• Preschool Education
• Specialized programs focusing on STEM, arts, and leadership
• Alternative learning environments for students who thrive outside conventional settings
• Virtual and hybrid learning opportunities

We support families in making informed decisions about their children’s education and will help you find the perfect match for your child’s educational journey.
