The teachers were all wonderful, very kind and supportive. I feel like the administration was trying, but tended to focus on the wrong things. The school community was fine, not spectacular but pretty friendly. I think that as a school, there could be more support for the arts, visual and performing.

its very welcoming and great for students of all levels. the teachers all care about each student and want sucess for them. reassessment is a great way to be able to track students growth as they develop skills under standard based grading.

I had my fair share of ups and downs with high school, it was hard to find some good quality of friends. I wasn't completely terrible though, I went to football games and participated in musicals were I did enjoy my time there.

I moved to Solon for the wireless high school, believing that administrators, teachers and students would be competitive nationally in global media. After volunteering for 2 years 3-4 times per week, I placed my child in a local school that took its orchestra to the Julliard in NYC and which had its...

I have got to say, I graduated from SHS a year ago and I don't believe that the academics are lacking in the least. There are other schools that are way worse off than Solon is and really Solon isn't bad at all. It is true that they could stand to update the books in the classroom, but the students...
