About Us

Our Philosophy at Sol Academy Miami

Creating a Warm, Innovative Learning Environment Where Every Child Thrives

Sol Academy Miami

At Sol Academy, we believe every child deserves an education that nurtures their whole self—mind, heart, and spirit. Our approach combines proven teaching methods with genuine care to help your child reach their full potential.

Social-Emotional Learning

Research proves that emotional intelligence is the key to lifelong success. When children feel safe and confident, their brains are ready to learn. That’s why we prioritize social-emotional development alongside academics—because children who master their emotions master their potential.

Child-Led Academic Learning

Using research-based HighScope and Reggio Emilia approaches, we let children lead their own learning journey. This means:

Learning connects to real life and interests

Teachers guide and support, rather than just lecture

Children develop critical thinking naturally

Education feels engaging and meaningful

Outdoor and Nature Learning

We believe nature is one of the best teachers. Through outdoor play and exploration, children:

Develop environmental awareness and respect

Build physical strength and coordination

Learn through hands-on discovery

Connect with the natural world around them

Strong Family and Community Partnerships

Learning doesn’t stop at school. We work closely with families and our Miami community to create a supportive network where:

Parents are true partners in their child’s education

Community connections enrich learning experiences

Home and school values align

Every child feels supported everywhere they go

Founder’s Message

The Heart Behind Sol Academy Miami

I would like to first extend a warm welcome on behalf of our entire school family.

As a parent myself, I fully understand the comprehensive and often complex decision-making process that goes into choosing the right school for your child. Therefore, one of our main focuses at Sol Academy is to deeply respect each child’s uniqueness and, moreover, to treat them with the consciousness and kindness that we, in turn, ask of them.

Furthermore, we lead by example because we understand that what we tell our students eventually becomes their inner voice. That is precisely why we are careful with our words and always conscious of our actions throughout this lifelong journey of both life and education.

In addition, we continually strive to spark the fire of curiosity in each individual by attentively listening to their individual interests and, consequently, providing them with meaningful opportunities to explore and create.

Warmly,

Sol Academy children's learning
