Dear Sunburst Parents and Community Members,
As we welcome fans to our home games, the safety of our students, families, and guests remains our top priority. We kindly remind all parents and guardians that children must not be left unattended at any home athletic or extracurricular events.
All youth must remain under the direct supervision of an adult for the duration of the event. Unattended children pose potential safety hazards for themselves and other spectators.
We appreciate your immediate cooperation in maintaining a safe, family-friendly environment at all Sunburst events.

Estimating our friends' heights! Stick around to find out their actual heights.
Third Graders are learning about types of forces in science, and started with those in the magnetic field. They discovered how magnets interact with different objects, tested magnetic forces, and even experimented with making magnets “float” along pencils! There were lots of predictions, observations, and plenty of fun learning moments along the way!
