The school's Director has over ten years experience in early childhood education. Sunrise School is located in a renovated church building in the heart of the Monroe Street neighborhood, minutes from the UW and Edgewood campuses and downtown. The interior of the school is spacious, light and sunny. The school is attached to a fenced grassy playground with play structures, trikes and a path, sandbox, and lots more. Parents are encouraged to become involved with the school through the school's Parent Board.
Several committees function in various aspects of the school and program.
We encourage and welcome parents in the classroom and on our many field trips. This page last updated May 22, 1997. Our lessons revolve around themes to incorporate our school's philosophy of teaching respect and love for humans as well as a sense of caring and responsibility toward all other life. These themes focus on the natural world and we concurrently develop activities that impart a sense of values clarification.
