Reminder for Our K–8 Families!
Our School Supply Distribution is happening this Wednesday, July 29, from 4:00–6:00 PM in the back gym!
Where to Park: Please park by the ramp on the east side of the building, between the football field and the school, and enter through the ramp door.
Every K–8 student will receive their school supplies packaged in a box, ready for the new school year!
We will also post the complete school supply list for all families.
We can’t wait to welcome everyone and help get our students ready for an amazing school year. See you Wednesday!
Every now and then, we receive a message that perfectly captures what it means to be part of the Sundown family.
We wanted to share a picture of Coach Kayla Belew and Coach Sarah Goodman pouring into our cheerleaders and mascots, not only by encouraging, motivating, and coaching them, but by praying with them and leading by example.
While we're certainly excited about any awards our students may bring home, we're even more grateful for coaches who understand that the greatest victories happen off the mat. They are helping shape young people of character, faith, and integrity who are prepared to succeed in life.
Thank you, Coach Belew and Coach Goodman, for investing in our students and representing Sundown ISD so well. We are proud of our coaches, our students, and the culture we continue to build together.

Servant Hearts in Action!
A huge THANK YOU to Coach Berry for taking some of our Sundown Cross Country athletes to volunteer at the South Plains Food Bank!
We were proud to hear such wonderful feedback about our students. The Food Bank coordinator praised them for how much they were able to accomplish, how attentive they were, and the respect they showed throughout their entire volunteer shift.
This is what it means to represent Sundown! We are proud of our students for giving their time to serve others and make a difference.
Thank you, Coach Watson, Coach Berry, and Sundown Cross Country, for demonstrating a true servant's heart and representing our district so well!
Work Hard. Love Others. Embrace Excellence.
