Pope Elementary School

We’ve been very impressed with Sunrise Elementary. The Quest program is strong and engaging — my kids are learning real math depth while still having fun.The building is new and clean, and communication from leadership is consistent and clear. Teachers genuinely seem happy to be there and often refer to each other as the “Sunrise family,” which reflects the positive culture.The music program for 5th and 6th graders is well supported, with options for choir, orchestra, or band. The art program is also a highlight. PTA events like Trunk or Treat make the community feel connected.Overall, Sunrise offers a thoughtful, well-rounded experience for families who value both academics and enrichment.

The staff are helpful and nice. They communicate well and update you on your children's progress. The current principal is Ms. Diamond and she's been great with being upfront and accountable and when my daughter had accidental exposure to her allergen she sat with her until my partner could pick her up and while an emt checked her out. She is showing improvement with her reading, writing, math, and art, every year.

We’ve had an exceptional experience at this school from day one. The teachers — from music and art to the core classroom educators — have been consistently supportive, caring, and invested in student success. Many hold master’s degrees and board certifications, exceeding what’s typical in nearby districts, which speaks volumes about their dedication and expertise.The administration and PTA do an excellent job communicating about events and opportunities, and parent involvement was obvious right from “Back to School Night.” You really feel welcomed as part of a team working together for the kids.If you’re reading reviews because you want your children to have a great school experience, my advice is: get involved. A strong partnership between families and schools benefits everyone. Research shows kids who thrive — both in school and in life — have parents who are present and engaged in their sports, studies, and daily growth.This is not just a great school; it’s a great community. We feel lucky to be part of it.

Amazing!!! Principle is old school and I love it, the way he runs his school is wonderful and I absolutely will keep my child here! We came from Zeiger and Im very happy we did, my child is going to keep thriving here. The assembly I went to where my little one got an award, I was blown away with how well behaved all the students were! And they actually give out awards to students, let parents know and then make the kids feel wonderful! This school is at capacity now, let that tell you how wonderful it is, the stats for diversity here is the best I've seen in any elementary around, it is so diverse and that itself will create a great environment. 10/10!!
