Making a difference

At our private school in Scottsdale, students embrace philanthropy through service projects, fundraisers, and volunteer opportunities. Guided by our core values and the IB learner profile, they develop empathy, intercultural understanding, and a commitment to making a positive impact locally and globally.

High School

At Rancho Solano, High School students are encouraged to participate in community service, which helps them develop compassion, self-awareness, self-esteem, professional skills, and academic growth. The 11th-grade service trip offers hands-on experiences including working on an ecological farm, assisting at an orphanage, and supporting local schools, followed by reflective journaling on tasks, lessons learned, and community impact. Many school clubs also focus on service - Angel Club supports Phoenix Children’s Hospital through drives and fundraising, the National Honor Society hosts blood drives for local hospitals, and each fall, club leaders collaborate on student-led service initiatives, demonstrating the students’ collective commitment to making a positive impact.

Our curriculum integrates the Rancho Five – Respectful, Responsible, Polite, Considerate, Successful – and extends learning beyond the classroom through meaningful real-world experiences.

Rehema Project

Rehema Children’s Home in Kenya provides a safe haven for children who have been orphaned, neglected, escaping early marriage, or subjected to physical abuse. Since 2019, Rancho Solano Preparatory School has proudly partnered with and supported Rehema Children’s Home. 

In collaboration with the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, our community has generously contributed to several initiatives. In 2020, donations funded the construction of a dormitory, greatly improving living conditions. Contributions in 2021 supported education programs and income-generating projects. 

During 2022 and 2023, due to COVID-19, our focus shifted to supporting health and education initiatives. In 2024, efforts returned to completing income-generating projects, helping Rehema move closer to its long-term goal of becoming self-sustaining. 

Looking ahead to 2025, we aim to continue funding essential health, education, and staffing initiatives. If funding allows, we plan to launch an on-site trade skills training program, providing children with practical skills in agriculture, dressmaking, carpentry, and more. Your donations help provide a safe home, healthcare, and education for these children.
