College and Career Preparation

Preparing our students for the next step in their educational journey is a priority at Solomon High School. Our guidance counselors work closely with students to provide personalized college and career planning support. We provide students with the opportunity to enroll in concurrent or dual courses at Salina Tech or take classes with K-State Salina, which enables students to earn college credit while still in high school. For more information, visit the Counseling Center.

SHS Resources

We ensure that every student is future-ready by using Xello. Xello is a tool that can help students to explore different career options, manage course selections online--and plan various pathways to meet the requirements for their desired career path. Parents and Guardians can request access to their student's Xello profile to follow along. Contact the Counseling Center to request access.
