Each year, Summit publishes a yearbook for our graduates and their families.  
This beautiful, full-color 100-plus-page hardcover book is designed by our yearbook committee that is comprised of many of our creative students and Carol Falco, who provides project oversight. In addition to all the good stuff that truly makes this a keepsake, the yearbook features student pages that have been individually created by our graduates to highlight their time and classmates at Summit.
 
Family & Parent Message/Ad Pages:
$75 Full Page; $40 Half Page
Extended Deadline: FEBRUARY 10 (or before)   
While students are creating their own personal pages, we ask parents, families, and friends to include their own messages, kudos, and special thoughts. Our graduates look forward to this part of their celebration, and this is a great way for you to send your very best. To send us ads/messages from yourself as well as family members and friends:
  • Email your print-ready ad in a jpg format, 300 dpi resolution:
    Full page size: 8-1/2 wide x 11 inches high
    Half page size: 8-1/2 wide x 5-1/2 inches high.
