Summit Hosts Winter Graduation
 Two students graduated at the end of our fall semester, and the Summit community enjoyed a small, but heartfelt ceremony to celebrate the event. Both Jordan and Patrick completed the emotional growth program, and Jordan also graduated from high school, and received his high school diploma. A number of staff and family members reflected on the challenges, growth, and accomplishments of these students. The students also gave thanks to those that helped them along the way, and spoke about their plans for the future.
Although we are sad to say goodbye to these two young men, who were both positive members of our community, we congratulate them on their success, and share in their hope for a bright future.
Students Rock Out with Marshall Catch
 The Alternative Rock Band Marshall Catch performed for Summit students and staff. The four-piece indie band from Kalispell did an amazing job getting staff and students on their feet and dancing! Oliver joined them for a song on the guitar and Emily stepped up to the mike to accompany them on her harmonica.
Marshall Catch has been invited to perform their original song, "The Ballad of the USS Arizona" at the 70th Anniversary commemorative events this December at Pearl Harbor Naval Base in Hawaii.
