“The Summit has had a tremendous impact on our children in providing one of the best educational opportunities in the city of Cincinnati. Our children have been nurtured, encouraged, challenged. and inspired through their education. There are several outstanding traits that set Summit apart from other institutions, but for us, it is specifically the commitment to educating leaders of character and the school’s mission. We truly see the advantage in how our children are given the opportunity not only to be challenged academically, but also encouraged to develop in many other ways that will serve them throughout their lives. We feel such gratitude for the existence of The Summit and all of the stewards who have kept the school moving forward. Because of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, our excellent faculty and staff and all of the members of our community giving of their time, talent and treasure over the years, our children are able to benefit from a Summit education. It is exciting to be a part of this almost 125-year-old institution and to be working toward a foundation that will enable The Summit to be available for future generations for another 125 years and beyond.”

“We joined the Summit community in 2006 when we moved to Cincinnati. It took one tour with the admission staff to know that Summit was where our kids should be educated. We learned about the ideas of a highquality education across the five pillars, a personalized approach embodied by the faculty and the strong focus on character education. The Summit has delivered in a big way for our family, and we feel grateful to have the opportunity for our kids to attend the school. Our kids feel the same way. The Summit has a big vision and has taken the mission seriously, as it relates back to its thoughtful leadership through the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. We are thankful that the vision is thriving today thanks to our quality faculty and professional administrators. We have both benefited tremendously throughout our lives given the educational opportunities we have received. We hold education in the highest possible regard and this idea has made our decision to get involved on a greater level very easy. We are excited about the new capital campaign that will be getting underway. It will be the driving force for improved programming and to further strengthen the school’s finances.” – Mike and Annie Bergeron Parents of Jack ’19, Kate ’21 and Nick ’24
