Working with the School Site Council, significant progress has been made in improving the disaster preparedness plan. Experienced playground supervisors closely monitor student playground activities, enforce school rules, and watch for unfamiliar visitors. Playground supervisors now wear safety aprons to be more visible to the children. In addition, the use of two-way radios facilitate immediate communication with the office. To ensure the security of students and staff, all visitors are required to check in at the school office.
Scores are consistently above the national norm.
The environment at Solana Vista is one of mutual respect. We work to foster high expectations for all children and to provide reinforcement for good behavior. The winning class of the weekly drawing receives a special lesson taught by the principal. Solana Vista holds the belief that all students have the right to learn and all teachers have the right to teach. This is a well-defined approach to discipline where children have the security of knowing exactly what is expected of them and understand the consequences of their behavior.
