This week, we are giving you a view of SOLA life off campus. While a lot of our learning happens in classrooms on campus, our students have many opportunities to explore, learn and adventure with SOLA teachers around town.

Sports at SOLA help shape not only skilled athletes but also a stronger sense of teamwork and camaraderie. This spring, our students had the chance to engage in an inter-school competition with a partner school. Here is a look back at a few highlights from those sporting events.
