Solon has excelling academics with teachers who truly care about the students. High School Students are encouraged to take college courses at the surrounding colleges and universities at no cost to the students. The only downfall is that the school only offers 2 AP courses. There also are no Agriculture or FCS courses offered. Solon is a very safe school district and respect is expected of everyone school wide. A variety of clubs and activities are offered and the school is known for its excellence in sports, specifically football. The school culture can be a little clicky and there definitely is an in-group and out-group feel. Music and fine arts are fairly good, but marching band doesn't receive much funding. Everything tends to go towards the sports programs, but this leads to exceptionally nice facilities. This includes an indoor track, turf field, brand new weight lifting room, and two gyms.
I have overall had a very good experience here. I’ve made a lot of friends since I moved here in middle school. There are a lot of opportunities for clubs, classes, sports and after school activities. There is also quite a diverse list of classes when you include the dual enrollment courses they offer. Teachers are also quite good at helping out and being there for the students.
I transferred here my sophomore year, it was a very welcoming experience from the staff and teachers. I felt a bit out of place considering I hadn’t gone there before and now that it’s my senior year I feel that certain things were never properly explained to me such as silver cord and national honors society, as well as the grassing system in place here. I missed out on these things and didn’t even know until it was too late. I get good grades though and the school is pretty good over all, fantastic teachers and interesting classes.
