Excellent school! They keep parents involved and informed! Sorry that we moved and my children no longer attend! :( I really see the difference! If your child goes there you are very blessed! :)

I absolutely love Sunburst. I spent 7 yaers of my life there (K-6) and gratuated 2 years ago. I was in the gifted program since second grade and loved the teacher. We're still in touch. I love her so much. The faculty and adinistration is great- they still remember me. I love Mr. Elliott. He was my favorite teacher and I wish I could go back and thank him. He is the man who enstilled the meaning of respect, dilligence and character into me. He upheld high standards for his students and wanted you to succeed. So thank you, Mr. *Dude*. Sunurst is an amazing school and I will definitely be sending my kids there someday.

This is a great school. The teachers care about your child's educational progress. My kindergartener was reading by mid-school year. They also have a promising music program. My sixth grader loved playing in the band. I love the fact that there is someone on campus to greet the children as they arrive to school.

Great school with wonderful teachers and administration. Sunburst is a safe place for kids and I appreciate that the principal is visible around the school. He sets the tone and has high expectations for the students and staff. Great job Sunburst!

I would give this school a averag I think it is a great school if you have a problem free child but the office staff and the principal do not have the abilitys to deal with children with learning or behavior problems and they do not deal with parents well

I have 2 children that go to this school and one that goes to another school district. No comparison! The Sunburst administration and teachers are the best. The principal is visible and engaged with the teachers and students. He is outside speaking to parents, greeting students and making an impact on his school community. The teachers go all out to reach their students. This school is wonderful and if they were K-8, I would have moved my other child here without hestitation. Bravo.
