Dear Families,

What an incredible week at Summit Hill!

A special thank you to Michelle Howard for organizing an outstanding STEAM Night, and to the many volunteers who helped make the event such a success. It was wonderful to see so many of our families exploring, creating, and learning together throughout the evening.

Congratulations to Ms. Hernandez’s class for earning the Hero's Hustle Chain and an ice cream treat at lunch for raising the most money during Week 2 of the Husky Fund! Kindergarten continues to lead in family participation, and a huge thank you goes to Mrs. Santos for taking a pie in the face to celebrate their achievement. PTO shared a video of those award ceremonies on Facebook and Instagram.

I am so proud of S.H.E. teachers and staff for their incredible support of this year’s Husky Fund. We have reached 100% participation today! We truly have the best team here at Summit Hill!

Thank you to our many families who have already contributed so generously to the Husky Fund. Every donation makes a difference in supporting opportunities for students and staff.

Today is the LAST DAY of the Husky Fund campaign! CLICK HERE TO GIVE

As we head into Fall Break, I hope your family enjoys a wonderful week filled with rest, fun, and time together. When we return, don't forget that school yearbook pictures will take place on Tuesday, September 29.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of Summit Hill Elementary.

Warmly,

Stefi

We are SO CLOSE to meeting our $200,000 Husky Fund goal! Reaching that number means we can fully fund Hero’s wish list of programs and resources for the entire school year. Thank you so much to those who have already donated, including every single member of the S.H.E. staff!

We still need one final push to get to 100% family participation. CLICK HERE TO GIVE TODAY!

Husky Fund results will be announced right after Fall Break!

Congratulations to our PAW Winners for the week!

Summit Hill Elementary invites enthusiastic students in grades 3 through 5 to showcase their love for technology in a local competition happening the week of October 26th. The top project will advance to the Fulton County Technology Fair.

Interested? Visit the Summit Hill website, navigate to the Media Center, and sign up by October 16th. You can participate individually or with a partner, and we encourage you to develop your project at home. All entries will be judged in the Media Center.

Please note: This is a student-only event.

Morning carpool is from 7:10 to 7:40. Your child is never tardy when they ride the bus!

Families may use the Cowart Road entrance for student drop-off between 7:20 a.m. and 7:40 a.m., after all buses have unloaded students. For safety reasons, this entrance is available only once the buses have completed unloading and have cleared the drop-off area.

Afternoon dismissals from 2:20 to 2:45.

Child absent? Please email attendanceSHE@fultonschools.org.

Change of transportation? Please email SHEtransportation@fultonschools.org.

If you would like to eat lunch with your child, lunch visitors are welcome. You will need to check in at the front office with your driver's license then meet your child at the cafeteria. You may eat outside in the Husky Courtyard or on the stage. You may eat with your child only, and not other students. The door to the courtyard will always remain locked for safety purposes, but a staff member will let you in the building when they see you at the door.

The District 2 Community Meeting schedule has been set for the 2026-2027 school year. Please make plans to join Board Member, Lillie Pozatek at community meetings this year.
