Open Quote Shut up this is the best school, it’s not the schools fault that you can’t make friends. Close Quote

Open Quote The teachers are great, but the students are all the same. There is no diversity what so ever at Summit High School. Everyone there comes from a high class/wealthy family, and they all aren't that nice. Of course, there are a few nice kids but the majority of them are in their own little cliques. Not that great of a school. Close Quote
