Sunburst is a town in Toole County, Montana, United States.
Sunburst has its origins as a farming community and later saw significant population growth after oil development occurred in the 1920s.
Since oil development in the area ceased in the 1970s, Sunburst has once again become a primarily agricultural town.
The local high school gives homage to its past, as its students are known as the Sunburst Refiners.
Its name comes from what is considered a dramatic sunrise that occurs when the sun comes over the Sweetgrass Hills and illuminates the local fields.
[9] North Toole County High School's team name is the Refiners.
