Who We Are
With the magnificent view of the Wasatch Mountains to the east and the stunning Oquirrh Mountains to the west, East Sandy Elementary is quietly nestled in the heart of Sandy City. Serving just over 400 students in grades K-5, East Sandy prides itself in the quality of educators that engage learners every day. From the moment the breakfast doors open, until the last student leaves the building, East Sandy Mustangs are Respectful, Responsible, Safe, and Kind. East Sandy offers several after-school programs such as Techniteer Troupe, Battle of the Books, Student Council, Jr. Coach Leaders, and even a before school Christmas Choir in the fall.
Our Mission
