Take it from a mother of 2 small children here. Don't go to lawrence public schools.
Posted by a parent on 2/4/2026Sunset hill is NOT special needs friendly!! They don’t allow you to be present if your child needs evaluated. I absolutely DO NOT recommend this school if your child has special needs!! Stay out of Lawrence school district period!
Posted by a parent on 9/6/2023Our school is outstanding, the best principal in the district.Awesome teachers and staff.My daughter loves to go to Sunset Hill's.
Posted by a parent on 2/1/2017My school is outstanding. The staff really go above and beyond their passion and it reflects in your children's work. I wish My children did not have to advance to middle school. Love this neighborhood school!

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter attended school here and had so many behavioral issues due to staff and peers. She was bullied and jumped by a bunch of 4th graders at recess and the principle refused to have 3rd and 4th graders have recess at separate times. I pulled my daughter from this school in Nov 2024 and immediately we seen great results at her new school in a new district. She had so many emotional issues at New York that we had to pull her. Which the right thing to do. Don't send your children to Usd497. Trust a parent who had 2 kids in this district. It was a nightmare and costed us thousands of dollars to correct by moving and getting our children therapy because of this district. They turned the comments off on Google because they don't want you to know the truth.Parent Review11mo ago - Raintree Montessori School
