Rating 4.3 out of 5 80 reviews
The culture at Solon is generally very competitive. At certain times this is a good thing, but in other instances it can be harmful. It is definitely positive in terms of preparing students for college and pushing them academically. However, sometimes the pressure that results from taking all these difficult classes and being compared to your classmates can have a negative affect on a students mental health. Solon is trying to make changes to this negative mental health culture, but it just doesn't seem like enough because it isn't fixing the root cause of the issue. However, I will say a lot of the teachers at the school are very supportive and understanding if you communicate with them.
I started my time in the Solon schools district when I was in fourth grade and, even though I have enjoyed my experience, I have heard many people say that there’s has been tainted by; either the extreme amount of pressure that is put on you by the school to exceed academically, or the lack of understanding and resources that they have through the school. Even though Solon has now been creating more of an awareness of these issues and trying to fix their shortcomings. They are still at the beginning of that process and could very much still work on it. However one reason I do love Solon is because of the sheer amount of extracurricular activities that it offers. There are a lot of available clubs, and even more that you could start by yourself or with your friends, and for me, it has been easy to find my place here and I think that’s rare within a school.
Wonderful diversity! Engaging and caring teachers! Wonderful sports program. Excellent choices on course offerings. Their counseling office cannot be beat! No wonder it is the Number 1 school in the state of Ohio.
