My children attend Sunflower Elementary and walk there everyday. I also volunteer there two days a year through the Watch D.O.G.S. program (Dads Of Great Students). Principal Howard Diacon is very popular with the kids and parents and leads with a calm demeanor beginning with his daily opening of the car doors during drop off between 8:20-8:40 a.m. Grades K-5 are taught including all-day kindergarten. I believe the school and all teachers have ESL certification. The central kitchen and "all purpose" room connect the school to Southwest Middle School. Mr. Gipson directs the choir and puts on great shows with the kids. The Marathon Club, Chess Club, Math Club and Science Clubs are all strong. This school was built in 1994 on 15 acres in the southwest part of Lawrence. My family loves this school.
