Charitable Donations, ColoradoGives & COVID-19

A letter from our Board President:     Team Summit appreciates your patience as we navigate these uncertain times and what looks to be an extended interruption to everything we know.   Many of you may not be aware of the effort that goes into keeping tuition lower than actual program costs.
