2014 Patriotic PerformancePrincipal's GreetingGreetings Sunset Families: We would like to congratulate Sam Siegel for making it to the Alameda County’s spelling bee. He is one of the top three spellers for grades 4th-6th from the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District (LVJUSD) moving on to this level. We are very proud of him.
We also would like to thank our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO), parents, and staff for helping with the annual Talent Show. We want to congratulate all the students for their hard work and for doing a great job. Sunset school is one of the schools from LVJUSD to receive the California Business for Education Excellence Honor Roll School title. This award is given to schools for excellence in achievement. This is a celebration for all our staff, our students, and all members of the educational community. Please note there will be no school on Monday, March 10th and Tuesday, March 11th. Report cards will be sent home with your child on Friday, March 14th. Your child’s teacher will inform you if a parent conference is needed. There will be early dismissal at 1:30 pm for students in grades 1st-5th during conference week of Monday, March 17th-Thurday, March 20th. Kindergarten classes will be on regular schedule during conference week. Another traffic safety friendly reminder, please follow all traffic safety regulations when driving in the school’s neighborhood and parking lot. The safety of our students, staff, and community is highly important.
Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds that you plant.
