Please have your child continue with their online learning in the meantime. Let us know if you are having problems with that by leaving a message on the school phone, 408-659-4785.

Sunrise Middle School, like all county public schools, is closing for three weeks to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. This is a directive from the Santa Clara County Health Department and the County Office of Education.
We have given students online learning assignments for them to do while the school is closed. Please email [email protected] or call 408-659-4785 and leave a message, if your child is having trouble accessing these assignments.
We plan to reopen Monday, April 6th.
There will be no spring break, as initially planned.
We wish you and your family well during this time.
Please do not mingle with groups of people, as this defeats the purpose of the closure. During our school closure, we wanted you to know about places where you can get free food while your children are not being served meals at school.
Please note these food pantries:

• Second Harvest Food Bank, 750 Curtner Ave. 8-5 Monday-Friday, 800-984-3663
• Ecumenical Hunger Program (EHP), 2411 Pulgas Ave., 650-323-7781
• Also, some local libraries are providing food.

Comcast/Xfinity now has a phone number you can call to get free internet if you don’t already have it. Your children need internet to do their online assignments from their teachers. Visit www.internetessentials.com or call 1-855-846-8376 for English and 1-855-765-6995 for Spanish.

Some 35 professionals came to our 7th annual Career Fair – nurses, lawyers, veterinarians, healers, artists, musicians, engineers, counselors, athletes, chefs, hair stylists and more. Thanks for being so inspiring!
