Sunflower Private School is a small, non-graded elementary school located in a quiet Gulfport neighborhood.
For 30 years, SunFlower has provided a rich learning environment for families who value a joyful, complete education for their children.
Our school is especially suited for gifted, self-motivated kids. Sunflower is a mix of the traditional and the modern.
Our teachers have the experience to assess the needs and abilities of each student, and to recommend the best methods and tools.
We then form a team with the child and the parents, all working together to give the child the best chance to succeed both academically and as a person.
