“Math curriculum has been changed/improved but a weak staff makes it still a below average program. Academic excellence is not demonstrated from the school leadership and the weak standards are evident throughout.”

“Parental involvement is high because they are picking up the slack for a poor staff and curriculum. Math curriculum is very bad and Science is pitiful. School district pays lip service to not tolerating bullying, but there's no action.”

“Great educational program, however I wish they would add more ethnic diversity in their choice of history and literature to provide kids with a more global view.”

“I am the parent of a former student (now HS freshman) attending school in NYS- we moved in 3rd grade...The bilingual program @ Sunset was fantastic and gave my daughter the opportunity to finish her NYS language grad requirment by 9th gr. - Looking back on the work it was some of the most challenging work she'd been asked to do....would highly recommend the program.”

“Sunset elementary employs great teachers as well as students. Many of the students do above average on the WASL and ITBS testing. After they graduate they go to Pine Lake Middle or Issaquah Middle.”

“This is a wonderful school. The students are all important to their teachers, there are myriad activities to get the parents and the community involved, and parent involvement is amazing. The art, drama, music and computer programs they've provided have been a perfect fit for my first grader.”
