Solon High Seniors Celebrate College Decisions

Solon High School is celebrated the academic achievement of the members of the senior class with a special College Signing Day, culminating the years of work students have put in to meet their post-high school goals.

May 1 is the traditional national “decision day” when students need to make a commitment to a college or university by placing a non-refundable deposit. In the tradition of this day, the Solon senior class of 2013 announced its college choices.

Fashioned after the popular signing days when high school athletes sign letters of intent to colleges and universities for athletics, the Academic Signing Day allows Solon seniors to have their photo taken while signing a certificate indicating where they will attend college. Seniors who are going into the military, fire and police academies and the work force also signed certificates today.

The hundreds of signed certificates will be posted in the school.
