Chief Joseph School

Simply awful. The bullying has been a huge problem at this school and that is mostly because of the inconsistency among staff in dealing with their bullies. Most of the time, your child will be dismissed by recess aides and told they are tattling and go play nice. When you as the parent go in and talk with the staff you will be met with concerned faces and they will reassure you it will be stopped. And that's about all you'll get because it doesn't stop. It goes on and it gets worse.

Terrible quality. The food is long past expired, and the work environment is not healthy for children in need. The principal agrees with violent acts and has a sketchy history. Overall, don’t send your kid here.

An absolutely outstanding school. It was great before it changed into the CORE school and now it’s amazing. We feel so great about sending our child here and recommend it to anyone with elementary school age kids. Everyone there is happy to be there. The most positive, supportive environment you could ever hope for.

Over the last 8 years I've had three children attend Sunnyside. The teachers, administrative staff, and leadership there contributed to a very memorable experience for my girls. Mr. Moore and Mrs. Rausch are exceptional and Mrs. Lisa in the office is very kind and efficient. The Principal, Mr. Boyd, is very fair and has no tolerance for bullying. Mr. Boyd and Mrs. Rausch will call parents just to say that kids are doing well or being good citizens and that's something we always really appreciated. Sunnyside has set high expectations for us as we're looking for new schools out of state. You won't regret enrolling your kiddos there :)

When I first sent my child here I heard great things but after around a year I realized some problems with this school. My child didn’t like this school and complained constantly on how teachers were mean, sexist and pushy alongWith teachers that don’t know how to teach.

We only got to attend for one year before moving, and we are so sad to leave! Lots of military families (like us) as well as local families. The school activities for families are so fun and volunteering and being involved is welcome (and expected). Tiny tots and the Kindergarten program were excellent programs that allowed our kids to learn and excel in a loving, religious environment. We are not catholic but felt welcome and accommodated in our personal beliefs. Weekly mass and catholic education are required for students, so this is definitely a true catholic school.
