Extractions: The smiles you see all have a different story. Shiley is learning to ride a tricycle. Shawn is going down the slide. Crystal is learning a magic trick at a school assembly. But behind each smile they share a common goal to do their best and to learn new skills daily. That's why Sunshine Center School has been a part of Kansas City since 1975. Since the beginning, Sunshine Center has grown to reflect the changing needs of children in our community. Today, more than 250 children, ages birth through 21 years, from greater Kansas City are served each year. Some are developmentally delayed or medically fragile; others are physically disabled. All are in need of special services that are provided at Sunshine Center School. The mission of Sunshine Center School is to provide comprehensive services to children birth through 21 years of age, who are disabled and non-disabled, and to assist their families to meet these needs. Sunshine Center School is a private, not-for-profit, educational facility with quality programs for children with developmental disabilities. The agency was founded in 1975 as one of the schools in the United States to provide educational and therapeutic programs to children with special needs and their families. A pictorial of the school and a collection of disability links are available at this site. Today, Sunshine Center School continues its rich tradition of educating children with developmental disabilities. Programs and services continue to expand and adapt to meet changing needs.
