Dear Sunset Families,
As we enter the month of November, I want to take a moment to celebrate the wonderful progress happening at Sunset School! Our students and staff continue to work hard each day, and we are excited to share some encouraging news about our academic growth.
Our students are making marked improvements in English Language Arts (ELA) compared to last year's Fall data! At this time last year, 39% of our students were demonstrating proficiency in ELA. This year, 50% of Sunset students are proficient readers!
This growth reflects the dedication of our students, the commitment of our staff, and the strong partnership between school and home.
We are also continuing to focus on mathematics achievement, attendance, and state assessment performance. Our school goals for this year include:
These goals guide our work each day as we plan instruction, monitor student progress, and provide the support students need to grow. Families play an important role in this work, too! Reading together, practicing math skills, maintaining consistent attendance, and communicating with your child's teacher are all great ways to support student success.
A big thank you to all the families who participated in our parent/teacher conferences in October. These conversations are an important opportunity to celebrate student strengths, discuss areas for growth, and work together to support each child's learning.
We appreciate you taking the time to connect with your child's teacher. When families and schools work together, students benefit!
Sunset School is excited to honor the brave men and women who have served our country at our upcoming Veterans Day Assembly!
Date: Tuesday, November 10
Time: 9:00 a.m.
We would love to welcome veterans from our school community and their families to join us for this special celebration. This is an opportunity for our students to express their gratitude and recognize the sacrifices veterans have made to protect our freedoms.
November is a busy month, and there are several no-school days on the calendar. Please take a few moments to review the school calendar and mark all upcoming days when school will be closed.
We will be hosting a canned food drive alongside Madison School to support our community. Please donate non-perishable food items to help those in need. This is a great opportunity to talk with your children about kindness, generosity, and the importance of helping others.
Thanks for helping us make Sunset such a special place to learn and grow!
We foster collaboration among students, parents, educators, and community. We create powerful support systems, enriching every learning experience.
We take ownership for results; "students who need the most deserve the best." We celebrate successes on our "One Compass—One Crew—One Mission."
Learning is our core. We ensure a great teacher in every class & great principal in every school. Empowering lifelong learners to adapt.
