A MESSAGE FROM
Principal Santos
We are ready to skate into a new month this week and while we only have three weeks left before the end of the semester, we have so much learn before December 17th is over! As we put our best foot forward after a much deserved break we ask for our families support with students being on time each day and helping us ensure that every student is dressed for success in their uniform according to the guidelines listed in the Solar Uniform Guidelines listed above. We look forward to a very productive few weeks ahead!
We need your feedback! Do you have a sibling applying to Solar for the 22-23 school year? Are you considering a magnet school for the 22-23 school year? Do you have any ideas for improving our school? We need your help! The grade level with the most responses to this survey will have a celebration! CLICK HERE

SOLAR PREPARATORY SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
KEY PRIORITIES:
Culture and Communication
Our goal is to clearly communicate the systems that reinforce the high-expectations and cohesive culture for students, parents, and staff. This focus on communication, data informed decision-making and consistency will elevate our staff and student culture to build the habits of mind and heart. These habits enable effective instruction, love of learning and excellence.
Project and Performance-Based Learning
Students will participate in meaningful and relevant learning experiences through the implementation of high quality project based learning across the campus. Students will make connections to the content they are learning. Instruction will focus on real-world situations with an emphasis on student agency, collaboration and students effectively communicating their ideas.
Math-Positive Culture
Math is for EVERYONE. A positive math culture will require that math is integrated across curriculum and contents throughout the school. We will work to improve campus-wide math mindsets, build fluency, and create a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts, problem solving and ways to manipulate numbers.
Blended Learning Practices
A deeper focus on the highest leverage differentiated learning systems that increase student achievement across the campus. Through blended-learning students receive instruction specific to their learning needs. The purpose, best practices and progress of our blended learning systems will be consistently to all stakeholders involved.
