Sunnyside is passionate about greening and gardening.

The Sunnyside Garden Classroom is a series of container gardens along our schoolyard. Our mission is to provide students with hands-on science experience through planting, watering, harvesting, and observing the cycle of life. Volunteerism brought our garden to life, and we are poised to hire a Garden Educator to deepen our students’ experiences.

Green Team: Sunnyside was chosen to be a pilot site for this cutting-edge initiative. Thanks to our leadership, Sunnyside now has a rainwater harvesting cistern and is reducing its eco-footprint.

We’re one of a select number of recipients of a Safe Routes to Schools grant, and we’re actively promoting alternate methods of transportation to the school, including walking and biking.
