Summit Leadership Academy is passionate about education and preparing students for success after graduation. Since all courses at SLA are college preparatory, all students have equal access to high quality instruction. SLA educators use advanced technology and teaching methods to promote college readiness. SLA teachers and staff stay connected to students after they graduate to provide them with encouragement, resources, and support to help them overcome obstacles during their college experience.

College Preparatory Courses

SLA prides itself on preparing students for both college and career. All courses at SLA are approved by the University of California Office of The President to prepare students for college after they graduate from SLA (A-G approved). SLA is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and is authorized by Hesperia Unified School District. 

Independent Study Option

Students looking to get ahead or catch up can enroll in SLA’s independent study program. Parents who homeschool can also utilize this program to support their instruction and report students’ earned credits through an accredited school. A dedicated teacher will be available to encourage and help your student, and to connect your family to our school community.

All instructional materials follow state standards and both student and parent portals can be accessed using the internet to complete assignments and monitor progress. SLA provides Chromebooks and internet devices to active independent study students for free.  Students can complete their work any time, anywhere, and still participate in SLA’s extracurricular activities such as sports, dances, career pathway competitions, and clubs.
