MISSION AND GOALS
Solvang School provides each
child with a broad range of learning experiences, the primary focus of which is
the academic areas of reading, writing, spelling, mathematics, social studies,
and science. In addition to placing strong emphasis on the mastery of basic
skills, attention is given to higher level thinking skills and a comprehensive
fine arts program including visual arts, music, drama, and movement. We have
Spanish speaking liaisons that aid and counsel our Spanish- speaking children
and their families.
PHILOSOPHY We at
Solvang School District
believe the education of a child is the responsibility of the parents,
the child, and the
faculty of the school. Each of these
three influences is an integral part of a successful educational
experience for
the child. This basic philosophy has
enabled the District to develop an atmosphere that stresses the right of
each
individual to be different and unique while developing confidence,
mutual
respect and a degree of cooperation, allowing the student to strive for
higher
academic achievement, to develop an understanding of the rights of
others, and
to grow in self-esteem. The
aim of Solvang School is to graduate responsible and productive
citizens with strong critical thinking and academic skills by providing
a rigorous, dynamic, comprehensive curriculum delivered in partnership
with the community, family and a competent, qualified staff in a safe
and caring environment.
Our teachers and staff work hard to
provide the best educational experience for our students. Parent
partnership is a high priority and is essential for student success.
Solvang School has a rich tradition of outstanding student achievement
and we provide a sound, standards-based education, while promoting high
moral character of all students.
We have developed this website
to be a valuable resource for our school community and hope you visit on
a regular basis as well as participate in the educational process of
your children. Strong school board and administrative leadership,
excellent teachers and staff, positive parental involvement and
community support enables all students to reach high academic standards.
We
are committed to moving forward and continuing to pledge our best
effort on behalf of your children.
