Sunset Valley Elementary School

This school is full of amazing educators who dedicate themselves to empowering all students. The teachers are professional and the administration is very child-centered and progressive. Students learn to read, write and speak in English and Spanish and there are many arts, STEM and musical enrichment programs available to all students. The community is welcomed and many events for families occur each year. The gardens are beautiful and the adults in the learning community ensure that they are well cared for so all students can learn in the gardens and eat from them. My son attends Sunset Valley and he is in two special populations. The staff has worked with him consistently and they continue to come up with ideas to help him be successful. They let him be who he is and I love this school for that! I am proud to be part of this school!

I am a student at SSV, I love everything about it.The dual language, the teachers, the principal, the assistant principal, the gardens and the hands on activities. I have been going for 5 years I love the community, the PTA and staff are so nice, everyone knows everyone. It is great.

SVE is an amazing school! My son went there for Pre K and Kindergarten. I love that it is a small School. The teachers and staff are great! SVE encourages Parents to be involved. When they have programs or something special going on they usually do them twice once in the morning and one after school to give parents a chance to catch the program at a time that is best for them. The dual language program gives the students a chance to learn about diversity and it is great. The school has a lot of after school programs to help your children get involved and learning more. As a parent I think this school is great! I also had the opportunity to do my student observations in the classrooms at SVE. So I got to see the teachers and students in action. All I can say is this place is super special and have some amazingly dedicated teachers and staff. If we didn't have to move out of town my son would still be here.

We love SVE! We transferred from Becker Elementary because SVE was closer to home and we could continue in the dual language program. I have been really impressed with all the resources, programs, and extra curricular activities offered at the school. My kids, a kindergartner and second grader, have both benefited from Creative Action, a free Theatre arts after school program, Math Pentathlon and more. If you are looking for quality after school programs this school has many to chose from. SVE is organized and as parents you know what to expect. There is great parent/teacher communication and consistency in the information (and in the homework too!) that is relayed through the grade levels. I really appreciate this because as a parent I can be assured that another parent will have the same information I received. Lastly, I am a former teacher who tutors here and from that perspective I am equally pleased with this school. I am thrilled that my kids have the opportunity to benefit from a dual language school so close to home that is diverse, has dedicated teachers and a great community. Thank you SVE!
