I love Sun Valley for so many reasons. I am a first grade teacher there and my daughter is a 6th grade student at Sun Valley. From a teacher point of view we have an amazing school, our teachers put their heart and soul into these children, going above and beyond to insure their educational and emotional

As a teacher at Sun Valley, I consider these people my family.

Although The new Principal is quick to respond verbally to my questions, she has no follow through. I am one who beleives in a learning curve, but lets face it, with a school that has gone from highly performing to just performing, the learning curve needs to be REALLY quick! Reaching out to the community

Children should not be coming from the other side of 91st avenue, or for that matter, the other side of the 101. Allowing those kids to go to a school in their own neighborhood could help create a better sense of community. Read less
