East Sandy Happenings – 11/17/23

Dear East Sandy families-
We had a great week at East Sandy.  Union’s theatre department came and performed for our 5th grade students. Harmons came and visited our 1st grade classrooms.  We also had our Latinos in Action from Jordan come work with our students. Finally, thank you to all the parents who came and had a doughnut with your child today.  We appreciate all that you do!

REMINDER: We will only have school Monday and Tuesday next week.  Both days are full day of school.

This is the place to be!
“Always keep the spirit of a mustang!”

Afternoon Pickup Reminder
Please use the pickup lane or the parking lot at the end of the day only. Do not park on 865 E. to pick up your child or have them cross the road to get to your car.  We want to make sure that all students are safe.

November Wellness Word is Compassion (see flyer)
East Sandy’s Wellness Word of the Month for November is COMPASSION!  Compassion means caring about others, treating others with kindness, and helping others who are in need.  Compassion is empathy in action! Compassion might also look like friendship, teamwork, or love!  Throughout this month, Ms. Andrea, our School Social Worker, will be visiting every class at East Sandy to read ” A Little Spot of Sadness”. She will also be visiting each class to teach a lesson about Compassion.  Classroom teachers will be discussing and exploring Compassion during Morning Meetings throughout the month?

PTA HAPPENINGS: Please support our school and join the PTA.
Service Week at East Sandy was a success! We’ve had food donations, kind notes written, and a Popcorn Wednesday treat! Thank you for coming to our Donuts with Grownups event as well! It’s nice to gather with the school community and think about ways we can help our larger neighborhood and beyond community. Hopefully the kids felt inspired this week as they learned a bit about service & showing up for others.

Happy Thanksgiving next week from your PTA!
