Stay tuned...

....to Summersville School and the new Summersville School Website.  We are striving to develop this site so that it becomes a complete source of information for the parents, students, school personnel and residents of the Summersville School district.  It is a continuous "work in progress" so check back frequently for information and  notes of interest.  We are pleased to feature the sculpture placed at the school by the Mt. Vernon Art in the City Committee on this, the fourth reincarnation of our website, which actually started on-line in 1996.  Current additions to the site include:

Current agendas for Board of Education Meetings
Minutes of Board of Education Meetings
An interactive on-line copy of our Student Handbook 
A page maintained by the Summersville PTO
A page maintained by the Summersville Booster Club
A comprehensive listing of the Accelerated Reader tests available for students at Summersville

  Please forgive any incomplete pages at this time, as a total remake of this type does require a great deal of time and effort. If you have suggestions for the site, please e-mail the webmaster and present them.  We will try to accommodate all requests that are feasible. 

Summersville School is a K-8 public school located in southern Illinois on the east side of Mt. Vernon, Illinois, approximately half-way between St. Louis, Missouri and Evansville, Indiana at the intersection of Interstate 57 and Interstate 64. Summersville has attained a reputation as a school with high academic standards as well as a wide variety of quality extra-curricular activities.

At the beginning of the 2002 school year, Summersville opened two new additions which included ten new classrooms and a new activities center. In addition, major changes and renovations were made throughout the existing structure which brings Summersville up to totally complete and functional physical facilities to accomodate today's educational needs.

Summersville has developed a Primary Emphasis Program over the past several years which has a goal of having all students at grade level by the end of the third grade. This program has achieved great success and has become a model program for other schools in the state. The upper grades (5 through 8) are departmentalized, incorporating subject area specialists in the major subject areas.

An outstanding and dedicated administration, faculty and staff provides high quality instruction and leadership to our citizens of tomorrow. We welcome questions concerning Summersville School and welcome a visit from you when you are in the area. Contact us at sville@wildcats.org.
