Opportunity Fund

Hello Rainier Seniors and Families!

This Tuesday, February 3, at 6:30pm in Room 1218 you can get free money for college!

Here's the big idea: It's a savings account for students from low-income families that gives you free money for college. For every dollar that you contribute, the fund gives you an additional $2. This is basically a $4,000 scholarship!

If your family qualifies for a scholarship at Summit, you are eligible. Even if your family doesn't qualify for a scholarship at Summit, you might still be eligible! Check out this table and read the column for Santa Clara county.



We hope that you will join us to get more information. Flyers in English and Spanish and an information sheet (both English and Spanish) are linked.
Also this week:

Tuesday, February 3, 6:30pm - Parent Education Night - This Parent Education Night focuses on cognitive skills. You hear your kids talk about them all the time and the teachers say they play a huge part in making sure that students are ready for college. But what are they?  Why are they so important? Come to the next Parent Education night to learn more about what cognitive skills are, the research behind why they are so important, and how the show up in projects for students.

Wednesday February 4, 6:30pm - PSCG meeting - All parents and students are invited to attend.

Thursday, February 5, 6:30pm - Recruitment Open House - Please invite any families who might be interested in attending Summit next year to attend and find out more information about our school. We are recruiting for all grades!
Summit's mission is to prepare a diverse student population for success in a 4-year university and to be thoughtful, contributing members of society.
