The Sunshine School began in 1964 under the sponsorship of The Junior Auxilliary.  Beginning with 7 students attending on a half day basis, the school was held in a converted army barracks on land leased from Searcy Public Schools.  In 1973, the Board of Directors received state and federal grants and contributions for the building of the faciltiy on Sowell St. That building served our students for 38 years. We are now located at 901 Airport Lp. in a  new state of the art building that was built strictly from the doantions of private, individuals and civic organizations as well as memorial doantaions from our community.  We now have an enrollment of 75 students and have 9 classrooms, 3 therapy rooms, a large multi-purpose room, library and offices.  As of 2019 we have been the grateul recipent of a donation to completly furnish a large playgroud.  Also recently donated is the adjoing land.  We are thankful for our very generous community.
