Sunrise Beach School

Madison Elementary is a cornerstone of this community. We have been here K-4th now and have been so pleased with our neighborhood school. The teachers really meet students where they are and strive to engage them in learning through their interests. Lots of family centered events - Science Fair, Holiday Store, Movie nights, ect. It has been an open and welcoming experience, that we look forward to continuing with our other children.

McKenny is an amazing school! I have had three kids go through the school and I am sad to have my last child move on to middle school. We will miss Mckenny! All three kids had a different, but positive experience. Great teachers and support staff across the board. I would absolutely recommend McKenny!

My son has attended this school since K. Grade 4th I noticed issues with my son. They have ignored my concerns, took away his help for math and language away, which I denied. Now they are trying to push up to 6th grade when he is performing at a 2nd 3rd grade level. My advice, make sure you record any meetings. they turn your comments into their own story. Make sure everything is in writing. That school does nothing to help with bullying. if your child is bullied they wont tell you there is a form you need to fill out. DO NOT TRUST THIS SCHOOL

This school will cater towards the bottom 10% of students and does not prioritize student learning. The principal is ineffective at providing consequences to students who are causing extreme disturbances in the classroom, often rewarding bad behavior. The Special Ed resources for students are extremely ineffective, they would rather exit a student from the program than provide the resources that will enable students to be successful. Some of the teachers are absolutely atrocious without any repercussions.

We moved our children from public school to St. Michael a few years ago and it was the best decision for our children and our family. We have not only seen our children grow academically, but they genuinely love going to school and you can see how much the teachers and administrators care and love each student. We love the parent involvement, tons of communication from the classroom teachers and the school, and we love how much our family is a part of our children’s education. We have heard from other families with high school students that the transition to high school was easy because they were well prepared, and that was a huge reason for us in choosing this school. Our children are loved for who they are and supported to be the best version of themselves. HIGHLY recommend St. Michael during these critical years of childhood and development.
