Narrative:
Just before xa:00; student pilot met with me to discuss the tasks for the solo flight. Student pilot has more than 30 hours of training (dual and solo). This was not the student's first local area solo flight. I had checked the weather metar; taf; altitude winds; radar; and the ZZZ ASOS. The weather was clear with light winds.we discussed going to the southeast practice area at 2;500-3;500 feet. MSL since the weather was clear with light winds. We discussed the maneuvers she was to practice. We talked about slow flight at no less than 60 mph; maneuvering through two 90 degree turns using 10 degree bank angle. We talked about the relationship of true airspeed and angle of bank for a standard rate turn. I reminded student pilot that she should recover from her practice stalls at the first indication (stall light). I reminded her to practice steep turns using a visual landmark with a heading for orientation; not just a heading. We discussed practicing the short-field takeoffs and landings/soft-field takeoffs and landings that we had worked on during the previous day's lesson; I gave her the aircraft bag containing the fuel tester; blue book; checklist binder; and keys. She went out to the aircraft; did her preflight; engine start; and taxied out.after xb:30; while sitting in the [FBO] office; I heard the airport siren sound. I went out to the ramp and saw the aircraft on its nose on the runway and student pilot walking away from the aircraft. To begin the notification process; I texted [FBO] ceo; that aircraft X had crashed on the runway at ZZZ and no injuries. I caught a ride to the aircraft to pick up [student pilot] and talk to the fire department commander. I provided him with information for which he asked and then rode back to the office. I had [student pilot] sit down and document the mishap while the events were still fresh. When [FBO] chief pilot; arrived at the office; I briefed him on what I knew.student pilot is an excellent and responsible student pilot. This mishap was unintentional; inadvertent; and not deliberate.
