Our 8th graders are officially on their Science Summit K12 journey 🚀🔬 and they’re climbing toward success one step at a time!

Parents, a little support at home goes a long way—encourage your child to log in on a phone or tablet for 15–20 minutes each night to stay on track 📱⏱️.

When school and home team up, amazing things happen. Let’s help every student reach the SUMMIT! 💪⛰️
