The Junior League of Summit thanks you and your school community for participating in our annual Thanks-for-Giving Baskets food drive. With the generous support of Franklin Elementary School and other area schools, we were able to provide 280 grocery bags to families through our partnering community outreach programs and help stock two local food pantries. We appreciate your kindness and contributions, and thank you for joining us in this special project this Thanksgiving season. Sincerely, The Junior League of Summit

The Summit High School Spring Musical will be Disney’s Mary Poppins. We are very excited to do this show, we know it will be a great show for the community and our students alike. For this show we will need to cast 2 children (a male and female) in lead roles and we will have a small children’s chorus. As we have done in previous shows we will audition students from our own Summit Elementary Schools to fill these roles. The auditions will be at the Summit High School on December 9th starting at 3:30. The High School students will audition the week prior.  See below for  audition information. If you have any questions kindly reach out to us and we will help you as best we can. This has always been a great experience to work with our elementary students and we look forward to another great collaboration.
