About

Dear Solon Robinson Families,

Welcome to the 2026-2027 school year!

I am honored and excited to welcome you to a new school year as the principal of Solon Robinson Elementary School. Although this is my first year serving as principal, Solon has been home to me for the past five years as assistant principal. Before that, I spent 16 years teaching students in kindergarten through fifth grade. This year marks my 22nd year with Crown Point Community School Corporation, and I couldn't be more grateful to continue serving this incredible school community.

I've always believed the best schools are the ones where students are excited to walk through the front doors each morning. That's the kind of school I want Solon Robinson to be: a place where every child feels safe, valued, challenged, and inspired to learn. A place where curiosity is encouraged, kindness is expected, relationships matter, and every student knows they belong.

Every child deserves to feel known, valued, and excited to come to school each day. That's the experience we'll strive to create at Solon Robinson.

At Solon, students will always be at the center of every decision we make. I am committed to supporting our outstanding teachers and staff, building strong relationships with our families, and creating opportunities for every child to learn, grow, and succeed. When schools and families work together, amazing things happen for kids.

One of the things I value most is the relationship between school and home. Thank you for trusting us with your children each day. I believe that when families and educators communicate openly, support one another, and work toward the same goal, our students benefit in countless ways. I look forward to getting to know your family and partnering with you to make this a successful and memorable school year for every child.

As your principal, you'll find me in classrooms, in the hallways, at school events, and celebrating the many moments that make elementary school such a special place. My hope is that every student leaves school each day already looking forward to coming back tomorrow. I'm excited for the year ahead and grateful for the opportunity to work together to make it a wonderful year for every student.

With gratitude,

Mrs. Melanie Frederick, Principal
