The Summit School, 655 Holly Ave, St Paul, was organized as a day school by leading citizens, taking over the former Loomis School, and opened in 1917 under the principalship of Miss Sarah Converse, AB Vassar, Columbia, who had previously been principal of the North Avenue School, Atlanta, Ga. There is a strong faculty of college women, and instruction is provided from kindergarten through the high school with adequate preparation for college. The lengthened school day popularized by the country day school is a feature.
