This school is pure trash. It's nothing but rich, entitled students and parents who have no idea how to act or behave with class. I am embarrassed to attend my child's sporting events when I witness how both the parents and players act. Their children have learned from them some excellent sportsmanship, including how to curse at the opposing team, flip them off if they lose, and so forth. The school itself is elitist and the teachers are miserable. It is administration centered, and the administration could care less what the parents and students think. We moved here from out of state and will be open zoning our student out of this environment next year. We could not be happier!

I did not like this school very much. Many of the teachers were mean, strict, and picked favorites. Most of the students at Sunset Middle were very rude and mean, but did not receive proper punishment. Instead I would see other kids, who haven’t done anything as bad, get punished. There is a lot of injustice and rudeness in this school. I am very grateful for the few real friends I made here and I’m grateful for those few teachers that were good to me and actually helped me learn. I hope next year those teachers stay and the school becomes as good as it once was. Sunset middle ruined my mental health and made me feel worthless because I wasn’t in honors classes, a lot of extra activities, or even just because I wasn’t good at something. This is what I mean by the teachers would pick favorites; they would only be nice and helpful to the students they liked best. And don’t even get me started on the enormous amount of homework we got. I wasn’t even able to do anything outside of school and it was so hard to try and pursue passions of mine bc of the little time I had and this is even worse for people who work slower than others (like me). I’ve been told by so many people the work in high school is not this bad even when you take honors classes. I really hope sunset changes and realizes doing so much homework is not helping us. I am so burnt out from all the work, teachers, and some of the students. Even our graduation was not fun. I didn’t get to see all of my friends and the breakfast wasn’t good. The whole graduation ceremony was sad and boring. I expected to leave middle happy and prideful but felt the complete opposite. There are so many other things that I experienced that made me dislike Sunset Middle School. I am so glad I am leaving and am never coming back.
