Welcome to Sunshine School

A Loving Start to Lifelong Learning

Preschool & Pre-K in Oro Valley

We’re more than a preschool.

For 40+ years, Sunshine School has been Northwest Tucson’s little ray of Sunshine. A joyful place where 3- to 5-year-olds grow, explore, and thrive.

​

Small classes. Big heart. About 60 kids, one welcoming campus at the base of the Catalinas, and teachers who know every child by name. We learn by doing. Here, it’s always our favorite way.

"We could not be more thrilled with our experience at Sunshine Preschool—it is truly the best preschool ever... The staff is consistently responsive, making us feel informed and reassured at every step. Our daughter absolutely loves coming to school; she's excited to go each morning and always arrives with a big, joyful smile. Watching her thrive in such a nurturing environment has been wonderful. If you're looking for a preschool, look no further. This school sets the standard for early childhood education, and we are deeply grateful to be part of this community. Wholeheartedly recommended!!!"

" Sunshine School was a wonderful experience for our family. Our son, David loved every moment he spent there. From day one, we felt the warmth and dedication of the teachers and all the staff. The teachers were always attentive to the needs of each child, with a positive, loving, and caring attitude. It was evident that they were passionate about what they did and genuinely cared about the children's well-being and development..."

Sunshine School is superior in transparency, communication and preparation for your child. They will ease your child into the curriculum as a pre-K/TK and prepare them for Kinder and beyond, as noted first hand after to moving our family to California and seeing the curriculum here. We are so glad to have chosen the Sunshine community and would do it again in a heartbeat! Full recommendation without reservation! Thank you to everyone there for creating the foundation for my kiddos!
