Sunshine School of Individualized Learning

If you care about your child’s safety and well-being, stay away from this school!They lost the paperwork that allowed my daughter’s medication to be administered at school, and no one informed me. No one at the school was concerned enough to notify me that she was not receiving her medication.They transferred her to a Spanish class without my consent, even though she did not pass the exam required to take bilingual classes. They waited until she was close to failing the quarter to tell me that they needed my authorization to move her back to the regular class (yet for the first change, no one asked for my consent).So far this month of February, today is the third time that when we go to pick up my daughter, NO ONE knows where she is. It takes them 45–60 minutes to find her, and they do not allow parents to enter the school.They schedule a parent conference at the school when you request one, and when you arrive, they leave you waiting for over an hour until you get tired and leave.I have already started the process of transferring her to another school, but because they are so irresponsible, they have not provided the required documentation to the new school or to me. They always say they will send it by email, and they never do.I would give zero stars if I could, but that’s not an option. The administration at this school is THE WORST. For the sake of your children, do not enroll them here!!!

Showed obvious signs of neglect while attending this school when I was younger. School never ever even asked about home life, took me to the councilor or reported it. Had a teacher in 2nd grade that was extremely rude to kids, and after that year wouldn’t even look at me. Also in 2nd grade, a boy in my class would hit on himself when stressed/ got things wrong, sometimes extremely hard and teachers would say “don’t do that” before going back to whatever they were doing. Once i ended up dislocating my knee during a P.E. Activity. Got to sit in a chair for about 5-10 minutes before being forced back into P.E., despite still being in pain. My guardian didn’t even get a text about the inquiry… Hopefully this school has changed since then, but for now I still wouldn’t put my trust in it.

If you aren’t white / American, keep it pushing. School’s staff and especially students are extremely micro aggressive.

What a pleasant experience it has been working with Baymeadows Christian Academy. We are blessed to be a part of this school!

We have four children enrolled at this school, each with different needs and learning styles, including one who requires additional support. With open communication and active involvement as parents, we’ve found that the school leadership has been receptive and willing to work with us to identify and provide what our child needs to thrive.Like many schools, there have been moments where bullying behavior could have been addressed more quickly, but we’ve encouraged our child to speak up and to bring these concerns directly to teachers and leadership. Over time, this approach has helped things improve.What stands out most to us is the school’s genuine commitment to social, emotional, and academic growth. They value the whole child, not just test scores, and that balance has been very meaningful for our family. The school also provides many opportunities for students to take on leadership roles starting as early as kindergarten and continuing through 8th grade, which we’ve seen build confidence and responsibility in our kids. In addition, there are regular field trips that enrich classroom learning, and a unique middle school program that sends students into the community to do good deeds—something that really sets this school apart.Overall, we would absolutely recommend this school. With parental engagement and strong collaboration with teachers and administration, our experience has been positive, and our children are growing in both confidence and academics.
