    I’m currently a sophomore in the school. Our school is small and has a lot of team spirt. I have ment opportunity in my school and the staffs teaching abilities are phenomenal. They always encourage students to put there best foot forward in life. Our coaches are also the best human beings. Most of them are or have taught at the school and know how to make us thrive in ourselves. Personally I’m a dancer and cheerleader. I can tell you for certain the our coaches, teachers, faculty and staff only want your child’s education to be the best. It is going to be an honor to graduate Solon High School!

    Solon Community School District is a very welcoming place. It is full of educators that care about the students and their success in school and developing them beyond high school. They take time out of their schedule to make sure the students can reach their full potential. I had a great experience participating in sports and clubs while feeling included in everything I did. Our school has a culture like no other where we all celebrate each others success and hold each other accountable.
    I have enjoyed my experience at Solon High School because of the great teachers and staff. I have made lots of friends throughout high school and Solon made this easy to do. Solon is a small community that leans on each other during hard times. I like the feeling of knowing everyone in school.
