Sunflower Elementary

Sunflower Elementary sits in El Centro, the heart of California's Imperial Valley — a tight-knit desert community close to the Mexican border where family and cultural roots run deep. The school shows some real strength in English, landing above the state midpoint, which makes it a solid option for families prioritizing literacy in the early grades. It's a good fit for parents who value a neighborhood school feel and want their kids growing up connected to the bilingual, community-driven culture that defines this part of the valley.
