Sorry, my English isn't very good.. Lionheart said that the Spring Maiden before Raven was a child over a decade ago. The Huntsman academy students graduate when they are about 21 years old, considering they start when they're 17 and, in the Beacon initiation, Ozpin mentioned they would attend school for 4 years. Summer was definitely not a child when she died. Not to mention that Summer stayed in Vale, which we know because Yang said she took missions "around the kingdom". Top it off with the fact that Lionheart and Qrow would have known if Summer was the Spring Maiden right before Raven, and we wouldn't have been given the story about how Spring was training with her powers in Mistral and then ran away because she felt the responsibility was too much.
