Summit Learning
5th through 8th Grades

What is Summit Learning?

The backbone of Summit’s approach is the online Personalized Learning Platform (PLP).  Developed by teachers in the San Francisco Bay area with technical assistance from Facebook engineers, the Summit PLP helps students set both short and long-term goals (while tracking progress towards these goals), prioritize their work, learn content at their own pace, complete deeper learning projects that apply real-world situations, and reflect on their learning. Teachers are able to better customize instruction to meet individual students’ needs and interests, including utilizing a variety of tools, many hands-on. This approach is supported by technology that allows both students and teachers to create and carry out individual learning plans and track progress towards goals.

Henry School began implementing Summit Learning during the 2016-2017 school year. 
"Summit Learning Program is provided by Gradient Learning, a nonprofit organization led by educators.  At Gradient Learning, we create captivating solutions with our trusted partners - communities, schools, and educators - to ensure that all students are equipped with what they need to meet their full potential while fostering success for all."
