Narrative:
I start the day with a flight to be sure the student is proficient to make a solo flight in the pattern. We went to make the flight 3 touch and go and the student maintained the correct speed and altitude along the pattern. The whole landing the student landed on the centerline with safe operation of the aircraft. After that I found proficient the student and signed the endorsement. Student went solo and made his takeoff departing runway 9 wind was 120 at 4 KTS. While supervising the solo I saw the student landing in the centerline about the aiming points. After landing I saw the airplane moving to the right and then to the left; after that the airplane went again to the right ending out of the runway. ATC talk with the pilot and he decided to turn off the engine and wait to be removed from the area. Rescue arrive and a tow cart to help to remove the airplane from the area and get back to the apron.
