Sunset View Elementary School registration is now open and we are accepting all grades, K-4!?Come in or call to register from June 8 to 12.<\/p>\n
Besides the incredible view, Sunset View Elementary has an academic API rating of 10.\u00a0 Our teachers meet regularly to review the academics and find ways to keep the students engaged and excelling.\u00a0 Our physical education program extends to before school, with a running club that allows students the extra physical activity needed.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
We are very proud to offer a whole school ocean immersion program through the University of California, Lawrence Hall of Science.\u00a0 M.A.R.E. is a hands-on science program that brings the ocean in to all our classrooms.\u00a0 Literally!\u00a0 Live creatures from snails to crawdads live among the students while children study different parts of our marine world.\u00a0 You can find more information about the program at www.lawrencehallofscience.org\/mare. <\/p>\n
Despite the ever-increasing cuts at our district schools, Sunset View\u2019s strong parent groups, PTA and Foundation have secured many programs at our site.\u00a0 From our Foundation\u2019s generosity, Sunset View will have a VAPA program that includes music, dance and drama for all students every week this upcoming school year.\u00a0 All grades participate in structured art lessons through Art Corps that focus on famous artists and art concepts.\u00a0 Our 3rd and 4th grades work with a professional poet.\u00a0 This year, we started “Everyone A Reader” at our site to support students needing extra help to build a strong reading foundation.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Through the PTA, Sunset View won a Healthy Lifestyles award for our physical education and garden programs.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
All our teachers bring something positive to the classroom.\u00a0 Recently in one kindergarten class, baby chicks were born.\u00a0 Our very own 2nd-grade teacher, Laurie Fleming, won KPRI\u2019s Teachers Make a Difference award this year.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Mrs. Sobel\u2019s 3rd-grade class studied wetlands birds on a field trip to the Famosa Slough and will follow up their study with a hands-on opportunity to help preserve one of the fastest disappearing habitats we know.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
We also provide our students opportunities to see beyond their own playground.\u00a0 Our recycling and “Go Green” programs teach our students to care for our world. \u00a0We hold an annual book exchange for students to recycle their books with each other and we donate leftover books to schools like our own cluster school, Cabrillo Elementary, and to a women and children shelter.\u00a0 Our Character Counts program created a wonderful opportunity for Sunset View to join hands with the San Diego Chargers and their outreach program to bring monthly meals to the homeless.\u00a0 And the World Language Cesar Chavez Club is currently holding a food drive for Angel\u2019s Depot to provide food for the elderly.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Every year, our PTA holds a jog-a-thon to earn money to support the wonderful programs that we are able to give our students.\u00a0 This year our PTA jog-a-thon fundraiser had a very significant theme.\u00a0 The “Giving Feet” event raised over $20,000 for our school, but it didn\u2019t stop there.\u00a0 Not only did our students run for their school, they ran for other students as well.\u00a0 We made a commitment to share 5 percent of what we earned with a neighborhood school.\u00a0 Last month, we presented a check for $1,000 to Cabrillo Elementary that it will use for much-needed equipment.<\/p>\n
