Kendall

I transferred my would be 4th grader and incoming kindergartener into this school for their ASD program. I drive and hour north for this, and it's worth every minute of my commute. My fourth grader has improved drastically in his test scores since the transfer. The school has small classes making it easy for teachers to be able to help student one on one. My son is now in fifth grade and thriving- he is not in an ASD class. My then kindergartener, is the one who takes full advantage of the ASD classes. My son loves going to school, and has improved a lot in his speech and ability to do things a child his age should be able to do. The staff in this school is marvelous! After a few weeks, they know who your children are by name. They are welcoming and go out of their way to answer any questions or concern you bring might have. Due to the small class sizes, this school, the teachers, and staff is a great choice for any child, ASD or not, not have.

The best school in Kendall, these is a school very clean, secure and all the teacher and staff are very professional and kind. These school are like home.

If you are for progress don't go to this school! They support only specific groups! The principal hates the parents and the students as well!

Excellent school! Caring teachers and staff. Truly, where everyone knows your name.

Sunset Park Elementary is a true gem in East Kendall, an A-rated public school nestled in a quiet, beautiful neighborhood. It’s the kind of place where everyone knows your name and your child’s name, creating an incredible sense of belonging and community.The teachers are dedicated, caring, and deeply invested in their students’ academic and emotional growth. The gifted program is especially strong, offering enriching and challenging instruction that encourages critical thinking while supporting each child’s unique strengths.We feel so happy to belong to this community and truly thankful that we found Sunset Park. With its high academic standards, supportive environment, and strong sense of connection, it’s an all-around wonderful school where children thrive and families feel at home.

Seventeen years. That’s almost two decades of morning drop-offs, school events, friendships, lessons, growth, and memories that will stay with our family forever.All three of my children have been blessed to call this school home. Seeing where my older two are today is proof of the incredible foundation they received here.This school didn’t just educate my children,it shaped them. It taught them responsibility, kindness, confidence, and perseverance. The teachers truly care. The administration leads with heart. The staff goes above and beyond. Every child is known, supported, and encouraged to be their very best.For 17 years, this community has felt like family. It’s bittersweet knowing our final chapter here is approaching with my youngest in 8th grade. I will miss the familiar faces, the traditions, and the feeling of knowing my children were always in the best hands.We are beyond grateful for the impact this school has had on our lives. The lessons learned here will stay with my children forever and so will the love.

I am quite frankly very unsatisfied with this school. The one good thing about this school is that it's very strong academically, but that's all they care about. My child is a very strong academic student but ended up hating this school because of the stress with constant testing and excessive homework. I also felt like the teachers and administration did not want to talk to parents that much. I had struggled with communicating with my child's teachers multiple times and it was incredibly frustrating. They also don't have recess every day which came as a shock to me because when I was in elementary school, I had recess every day. Young kids NEED unstructured play time during the school day. I pulled my child out of this school because all this school did was destroy my child's desire for learning.
