Summit Denali recognized as a School of Distinction

Summit Denali, a public charter school in Sunnyvale, was recently recognized as a winner of the Silicon Schools Fund School of Distinction Award.

“Summit provides a great example of schools that focus on what students need to succeed and how to best support teachers in reaching this goal,” said Silicon Schools Fund CEO Brian Greenberg.

The comments were made during a ceremony this month. Greenberg presented Summit Denali Executive Director Kevin Bock, with a commemorative plaque. His visit included classroom observations and conversations with students and faculty.

The Silicon Schools Fund honors schools with the most impactful innovative approaches to education combined with outstanding academic results. In 2017, the first year the award has been given, eight schools were recognized with the School of Distinction Award.

Summit Public Schools operates nine public charter schools serving middle and high school students in the San Francisco Bay Area. Summit Denali was founded in 2013 in Sunnyvale. The first Summit middle school, Summit Denali has expanded to serve students in sixth through 10th grade. In the future, it will grow to work with students through 12th grade.
