We are on our 3rd child attending Sunset. Very impressed with all of our interactions with the staff and teachers.

After graduating from Sunset, our 4 children went on to college, 2 receiving full scholarships to the U of O. They became a copy-writer, surgeon, actress and statistical analyst. With their varying personalties and interests, their experiences were of course very different. None were in a "popular group", but each made a few good friends and have ongoing friendships. Fortunately, they all found a niche in an extra-curricular activity ... sports, theatre, music, speech team, leadership....One worked in the lunchroom to get free hot lunches. Teachers were supportive when they sought help.

Sunset high school is a great school that prepared me for the real world. Teachers/Coaches challenged me to be my best in the classroom, athletics, and in life. I highly recommend this school

absolutely horrible. every single day I yearn for the class to end so I can have a break from these horrible, boring classes. I hardly learn anything even though I pay strong attention to the teacher and what they say and do the classwork. if i didn't live at two different houses half the time and one of them are further from the stop. I would have already transferred to Beaverton High School where at least there I could have a decent time in High School

We are all treated unfairly and it is very unfortunate that students have to attend this school. Please choose a different school for your high schooler.

Sunset High School is an amazing school. All in all, Beaverton School District is great! There are many opportunities there, and the curriculum is great too (many AP, IB classes, etc). Compare to many other school which I have attended, the teachers, the students, and just about everything are exceptional. The students will learn and they will enjoy it, as the teachers will teach with a great attitude and make the learning process fun. Sports are fantastic and are one of the greatest in which I have seen and participated in. *It actually al depends on the students, because many people disagree with the above average rating on this school, but it is never the school or the teachers. If a student wants to learn and excell, they will do so -I would know. My freshman year I was terrible towards the end, but that is only because I gave up on myself. This school is AWESOME!
