Dear Sunset Families,
We made it to the holiday break! I want to take a moment to wish you and your loved ones a wonderful and restful holiday season. This is a time to pause, reflect, and enjoy the company of those who mean the most to us.
Our Sunset community is so special, and I am grateful for each of you—your support, encouragement, and dedication make our school an amazing place for our students to grow and thrive. Whether you’re celebrating at home, traveling, or simply taking time to relax, I hope your holiday is filled with joy and connection.
Stay safe, make some wonderful memories, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to school on January 6th, ready for a fantastic new year together!
Happy Holidays and best wishes for the new year!

Student LVJUSD Gmail Accounts
In accordance with security guidance, IT has updated student passwords to 9-digits. That means students with 8-digit student IDs will need to add a leading zero and students with 7-digit student IDs will need to add two leading zeros to be able to log in. Students with 9-digit student IDs or who had previously changed their password to a personal password were not affected.
If students need help, they can get help from their teachers when school starts.
