I have had three children come through Sunset Ridge. I also work there part-time so I feel I get to see a little bit more of the inner workings of the school. There are many wonderful, compassionate, and dedicated administrators, staff, and teachers. The biggest challenges I see are due to students coming from homes without parental support and guidance. This leads to behavioral difficulties which interferes with other students’ learning and teachers’ time. It is frustrating to watch some of these to appear unresolved and continuing because I feel the administrators feel their hands are tied by the district and unhelpful parents. But, on the whole, the students are great and families involved and encouraging. I was glad to see the district come out this year with some clearer expectations with relation to dress code and illegal substances. I hope to see these thing enforced because a middle school student wearing a shirt with marijuana leaves, sexualized images and overtly revealing clothing (boys and girls) has no place in school.

Two of our children have attended Sunset Ridge for a total of 5 years. As a parent, I also work part-time at this school. I love all of the teachers I have worked with, and daily I see instructors care for, serve, and worry over all of their students. Frequently I see - and help teachers modify assignments for students who need extra support. This is a wonderful place to work, and I have felt safe sending my children to Sunset Ridge.

I go there and it is the BEST middle school there is! It is nice and clean, the teachers are great and fun, the student work hard and enjoy there time there! We also have an amazing anti bullying system, so great that Disney has reached out to is and is doing a documentary... So we are amazing! GO FALCONS!!!!

Some of the teachers at this school have been very unhelpful in my point of view. My child has told me what one of the teachers there have done in the classroom that is very disturbing, the teacher should be fired in my opinion to what they did.
