Students & Families Hub
At Summit Elementary School, we believe that strong partnerships with families help every student thrive. This Hub is your one-stop shop for the resources, tools, and information you need to stay connected and support your child’s journey from Pre-K through graduation.
We’ve gathered the most helpful links and updates in one place, so you can spend less time searching and more time engaging with your child’s education. Explore the sections below, and don’t hesitate to reach out to your school or the district office if you have any questions. We’re here to help!
Enrollment
We’re so excited to welcome your family to the CCS community! Whether your child is just starting preschool or preparing for their first day of kindergarten, this is the beginning of a joyful journey filled with play, discovery, and growth. Below, you’ll find helpful details about how to enroll, what to expect, and how we’re making early learning accessible and welcoming for all families—starting with kindergarten at your neighborhood school and, beginning in 2026, preschool at our new Charlottesville Early Learning Center
Note about rezoning: If your family is impacted by rezoning changes going into effect in 2027 or 2029 and you wish to “start early” at your neighborhood’s rezoned school, register for your currently zoned school and then complete an out-of-zone request form (available in the spring).
Preschool
Starting in Fall 2026, preschool (ages 3 and 4) will be in our division’s new Charlottesville Early Learning Center (CELC). Our preschool is for families that meet the eligibility requirements, helping children become kindergarten-ready through play and learning activities.
Kindergarten
We are thrilled to welcome new kindergarteners at our school each fall! To enroll, kindergarteners must be 5 years old by September 30. An open house for kindergarten registration occurs at our school every year in mid-to-late April.
New Students Grades 1-4 (and Grade 5 starting in Fall 2026)

After School at Summit
We have an active clubs program as well, led by teachers and parent-volunteers who wish to share a skill such as photography, cooking, or dancing. Clubs usually meet for terms of 4-6 weeks.
- If you are interested in leading a club session, please contact the principal.
