GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It has a very lovely campus with great number of students from different backgrounds present. The only issue I would have is the fact that the guidance counselor for my grade kept being replaced, and junior year was a very important year to understand things about college that I was not prepared for because the school ran through so many counselors.

Level of available classes is good i.e. AP, DE, Honors, etc. Sports teams needs some help in areas of coaching and facility upgrades. Need stable teachers and administrators as we are constantly having teachers leave in school year.

Sunlake is overall a good school. The school offers many different classed for all students like AP and Dual enrollment. The after-school clubs and extracurriculars allow students to be more involved with their school. Although the schools does need to improve on some things it is overall a welcoming and safe environment.
