Summary: This week, we speak with Payal Patel, the parent of a Summit Public Schools’ middle school student. Payal tells us about how her own research and reflection on the purpose of education led her to choose Summit, which she describes as being about community building, problem solving, and innovation and creativity, preparing students to be college ready. Payal shares her son’s experiences in building trusting relationships with his mentor and peers, and about her own path in finding a community of support.
