Solution Tree partner schools reach new heights

We are thrilled to celebrate 18 Solution Tree partner schools recognized as 2025 California Distinguished Schools! These schools exemplify the power of collaboration, strong leadership, and a relentless focus on student-centered achievement through strategies like professional learning communities (PLCs), response to intervention (RTI), and data-based decision making.

Your dedication is an inspiration—and we’re proud to support your continued success through professional learning communities and results-focused professional development.

“These schools exemplify what it means to embrace continuous improvement, meaningful collaboration, and a shared commitment to student learning, all of which we applaud and support as they align with the mission, vision, and values that are foundational to our work at Solution Tree. Congratulations to each of them.”
