A message from Principal  Santos ...

What a wonderful week of kindness we had! It was so much fun seeing our Trailblazers shine through their joy each day but especially through their actions. 

Thanks for all who came out to our Black History Month Get-Together this week. In case you missed it, our Soulful Sunday will be on February 25th and you can sign up to volunteer here. We need your help! These community events not only give us a chance to celebrate together but to take time to get to know one another. We so appreciate Ms. Hailey, Naterra Houston, our NJHS volunteers and all the members of our culture committee who have helped to make these events happen! Have a great 3 day weekend!

INTENT TO RETURN SURVEY 

We need your help planning for next year. Please complete a separate form for each child currently attending Solar. We need 100% of our current families to complete the return survey by April 30th.

The Solar Pantry is a parent-run volunteer organization that provides free food, toiletries, and children's books to fellow Solar families. The Pantry has weekly hours when Solar families can pick up food. The Pantry also organizes the Solar Uniform Swap as well as other events throughout the year.

Where is the Pantry located? 

The Pantry is located on the northwest side of Solar Boys' campus, behind the cafeteria. Look for the parking lot on Monarch Street.

At Solar Prep for Girls our uniform policy includes a very specific dress code. We believe that if a student is dressed for success they will feel confident which positively impacts academic performance. Our hope is that our uniform creates a sense of pride for our school and our school community. We appreciate your support in ensuring your student comes to school dressed appropriately and ready to engage in learning. 


We will continue providing feedback to students out of dress code to ensure a safe and inclusive environment.
