For all my Yelp followers and local fans, I'm back at it again with another review, I'm like the…read moreDos Equis guy... I don't always write reviews on schools but when I do it's going to be about the Sunshine House Where do I begin? June 2023...just touched down in GA from Los Angeles, don't know a single soul in the Peach state and moved out here from an area that has a very educated driven school system (Arcadia), yup if your from CA you'll know that it's #2 best place to teach, #4 best school in California and #38 best in USA, their high school has graduated 100% of their class 3 years in a row with over 3.5gpa average...Aiko was in that type of school system, so my expectations were against me moving to a small city of Grayson. June 2023 touched based in GA by early July I ran over to a few other pre-k nearby and let's just say I was not impressed, matter of fact I was really considering just not enrolling my daughter in school all together until she was like 11, really it was that bad I was willing to take my chances. No joke I entered a preK nearby without being buzzed in cus a little kid about 7 yrs old just ran and opened the door for me, yah no we ain't doing that. I was so conflicted, I needed her to continue being social, learning and most importantly I need my space! Quick 411 on our daughter (Aiko) she's a diva, she wants to be a model and makeup artist, she already decided that at 5! She HATES school with a passion, you know how you feel waking up on a Monday morning to go to work? Yeah...that's her everyday! Needless to say the Lord likes to test my wife and I with some patience every morning, us real parents know what that is like, Aiko get your A** up now it's 7:54 and we gonna be late ! Jp baby we love ya :) Drive by Sunshine House on a weekly basis and decided to pop in one day just to ask about pricing/availability, the usual, already not expecting much based on the other school visits, but The VIBES!!! Shoot I felt like I walked into a Waffle House, 2 gals up front greeted me with a smile, some info and even called out the director (Ms Bartlett) who was also super nice and welcoming (Southern Hospitality) I guess does exist still, anyways she gave me a quick tour of the place, handed me some paperwork, told me some pricing and the rest is history...well not kinda... Fast fwd about 1.5 months school is about to start in 1 week, omg I forgot my packet! Aiko isn't enrolled! My wife thinks otherwise cus I'm a typical husband who lied about getting everything done! I offer to go grab her Starbucks but in reality I rush over to Sunshine House prayingggggg all the spots aren't taken, the girls upfront are laughin when I tell them what I've done, they say uhhhh I think it's to late but let me ask the director...yup you guessed it! They were still able to take her! They not only saved a spot for her but they saved my marriage! Now, if you've made it this far you've learned that the other schools in the area suck, trust me I'm the most honest guy I know. You also probably understand the ladies who work here are friendly, you also understand it's really dangerous to lie to your wife. Now the fun stuff. The teachers! Ms Cindy and Ms Jess or Ms Jazz, according to Aiko So remember I mentioned earlier Aiko hates school, yeah she's that kid. Cries everyday! Every teachers words, says shell get used to it, naw I know my kid she ain't gettin over nada! Well, Ms Cindy and Ms Jazz really play a huge part in Aikos school life, though she still cries time to time she is much much more willing to participate so that tells me they have left an imprint in her heart to gain her trust, for that alone it gives me peace and mind which I believe is the important attribute for any parent to require from a school/teachers. Aiko made her first best friend here also, Tallulah, shout to ya girl! Oh, side note Ms Jazz and Ms Cindy secretly run a hair braiding business during school hours cus I send Aiko to school with her hair down and at least once a week she comes back with hair hair lookin fleek! As you can hear, Aiko really enjoys her time here, lots of friends, nice staff, activities, memories and most importantly no kids opening a coded door for you, what else could you ask for in a school? My Wife likes to remind me how I almost forgot about our daughters education, Im a man of faith, I see it more as if the school was meant to be God will make a way, he did and I'm so thankful everyday, this place has been a true blessing for our family and Aiko, she's made so many friends and memories here in the past year so with that being said... I recommend anyone who is looking for a PreK to check this place out first, or last (if you are a risk taker like myself) the staff is awesome, facility is always clean, friendly parents and they are always engaged in activities. Your child/children will definitely leave better than they arrived because they treat your children with love!

Expect the teachers to scream at you and make excuses to get you into trouble since they have the power to do it and won't like your kind. Debbie Leonard was one teacher. She tried to manipulate me into believing there was something wrong with me. Even as a child I knew she wasn't trying to "help" me. She then slandered me to the school counselor and sent me there. When we spoke, fortunately the counselor knew there was nothing wrong with me. Mrs. Leonard would yell at me and insult me often, while turning a blind eye to any child who mistreated me. The following year, she slandered me to Nancy Swan, my 5th grade teacher, who was even worse. She would SCREAM at me in front of the whole class. She would yell at me for weeks because I had a pencil case instead of a pencil pouch. I asked her why that even mattered, and she stuttered and said, "You're too old to have a pencil case." As if there's an age limit on stationary. And she was stuttering, because she knew she was lying. She, like Mrs. Leonard would find ways to get me into trouble and make stuff up to have an excuse to yell at me. I found notes in my folder of her trying to convince my mother that I needed to see a doctor, even though she was the one trying to bully a 10 year old. Oh, and Jennifer Klaas-Taylor, the gifted teacher? There were two plays: one on the Civil War, the other on Slavery. Since I was one of two children of "a darker persuasion", she had the lighter students put on darker make up for the slave play to make it look more "believable"! There's a term for that, you know. For the sake of avoiding triggers, it's putting BLACK makeup on your FACE!!! She then looked at me with the make up and said, "You're next." Ha, get it, because, you know, I'm already....? This place was horrible, and I don't miss it at all.

For example, as a senior in high school at DCA, I did not have an elective the first period; however, my mother worked as a teacher there and had a class the first period. The principal found me and threatened me if I was seen on school property (even sitting in an empty room working on homework) before my first period, that I would not be able to graduate. In addition, when the principal found gum on a table, she brought it in front of the whole school and said she was going to do a DNA test because nobody would own up to it. Numerous events have happened like this time and time again. Putting her hands physically on me, searching my backpack (because she heard I had headphones in my backpack), and was threatening in all areas. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL. It is an automatic signup for years and years of counseling.

From elementary to middle school, to the high school, the teachers and staff are excellent! They really take the time out with the kids and the parents. There are plenty of activities as well as well thought out field trips. Our move out here to Ga from California wasn't easy on my family but my kids being in this school district makes it so much better. As we are looking now to purchase a home because I really like gwinnett county I want to stay here and keep my kids in the same district and schools.
