We recently transitioned to this county and the transition was seamless! My daughter is so excited every day to go to school and has since joined many programs that hadn't been available in our last district. This school also has many family inclusive events for all ages! Excited to see the growth in the coming years!

Solley elementary is one of the best elementary schools in the county. I grew up in Severna park, and this school is better than any school I attended. The middle school, and high school are now almost as good. I'm glad my son went here. The parents are very involved, the principal is excellent. A+

Teachers are a bit out numbered but I believe the number of children in a class has helped socialize my child and allow her to learn from many different cultures and upbringings.

I don't like to complain but this is truly a horrible school. I cant say it is the teachers fault as much as the administration. I truly believe that if you need something done you have to go to the board. The principle and vice principle are worthless. For people who are supposed to care about the kids they are the epitome of the bottom of the barrel when it comes to school administrations. So as long as your kid has no issues this is a great school. But if your kid has issues turn around and run, run away as fast as you can !

Solley has a great staff and environment that positively helps students grow. The PTA is active and constantly finding ways to help make the place even better. Communication is strong and I recommend this school for anyone interested in moving to our area.

Hopefully with a new principal, this will become; as it has in the past, the "Best School Ever".

My kids have gone to this school for 2 years. The teachers have been pretty good . However I believe that the principal Mr. Wagner is not as he seems. When my son had problems it was swept under the rug and was never resolved to my satisfaction or my sons. I hope with a new principal this new school year things will be different and both my children have a great school and then my rating would go up.

Wonderful school with friendly and helpful staff. My children love this school and enjoy waking up and experiencing each and evey day here. We came from the arnold school area and I comfortably say this school is a much better school.

This is a WONDERFUL school. My kids transferred here after attending a private school and they have flourished beyond my expectations. They are recognzied for their hard work, congratulated for their acheivements, and are always encouraged to keep going. The communcication from the school is wonderful, teachers are approachable and available, and the administration is always present . The front office is phenomenal. The teachers care about every child and my children have benefitted from the individual attention they have received from their teachers. Music, band, dance group, lego club - all great!
