My daughter went to SonRise for 2 yrs. and did well. The school is small and it's out in a country setting so that makes it quiet :) If your child has trouble getting along with others, this could be a good environment or bad because there are only a few kids and you are either in or out of the group...no other options. The teachers are nice but I do think there should be someone outside when the kids are out for break...this is one of my biggest issues with the school. It is a Christian school so that's a big plus! I pray that the school will grow and God will work great things in the lives of all who attend!!!

My children loved this school. The teachers are great, hands on, and loving. It is like a large family. It is small, but great.

The SonRise School in Bluffton, Minnesota is a great school for children. I have to children attending one in Kindergarten and the other a preschooler. I love this school because the class sizes are smaller and the children learn a lot more then public schools with a lot more kids. Every family knows eachother and all the students along nicely. As parents you can be involved in this school as much or as little as possible. When parents are involved with helping a school out you only get a win win situation and thats exactly what we have here. I tell everyone I know how much the kids and my husband and I love this school.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
