Soledad USD Receives Statewide Golden Bell Award

On Wednesday, December 3, the California School Boards Association presented Soledad Unified School District with a Golden Bell Award at its Annual Education Conference in Sacramento. This prestigious statewide award recognizes our district’s outstanding Career Technical Education (CTE) Program, which serves students from elementary through high school.

Our CTE Program has grown into one of the most diverse and comprehensive in the region, offering multiple career pathways at Soledad High School, dual enrollment opportunities with local colleges, industry certifications, hands-on learning, and real-world experiences that prepare students for college, career, and life.

We are incredibly proud of our students, teachers, support staff, administrators, Board of Trustees, and community partners whose dedication made this achievement possible. This Golden Bell Award is truly a celebration of our entire Soledad community and our shared commitment to providing meaningful opportunities for every student.

Thank you for your continued support of Soledad USD. Together, we are building bright futures for every student—every day.
