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.

Sundown High School is a great place to learn. They teach work ethic like no other school can making college easier for student who attend. Though, it is not easily accomplished.

The school offers one of the best courses of education in the west panhandle area. However, I would like to see the school become a little more modern. The board and administrators of the school operate the school on old and outdated morals and standards.
