East Sandy Happenings – 9/1/23

Dear East Sandy families-
East Sandy had another great week!  We started with our Brain Boosters. They are PE, STEM, Art, and Media. Students rotated between these classes and learned about all the great things they will be doing this year.  This week’s focus was on making sure to engage in your learning.  We encouraged all students to take ownership and reflect on their understanding of what they are learning.  The goal is to empower students and increase responsibility.

“Always keep the spirit of a mustang!”

Important Information
Please be cognizant of when you are checking your child out of school.  If it is after 2:40pm it pushes up against dismissal. If possible please wait until the end of day dismissal to help with our exiting procedures.

We are doing Blue Ribbon Week all about KINDNESS next week 5-8th. 
  • Tuesday, 9/5 – Blue Ribbon Week: Kindness Kick-off  |  students will be encouraged to wear blue or their East Sandy Mustang t-shirts to kick off Blue RibbonWeek!
  • Wednesday, 9/6 – Grow Kindness, All it Takes is a Smile  |  students will receive a handout w/smiley sticker to remind them that smiles are the seeds that grow kindness and it all starts with a smile.
  • Thursday, 9/7 – Be a Life Saver, Show Kindness  |  students will receive a lifesaver candy to remind them how they can save a life by using kindness to show everyone they belong.
  • Friday, 9/8 – No Mustang Left Behind at the Buddy Bench  |  PTA volunteers inform students at recess about the concept of a buddy bench and how it works to bring kids together, encourage them to include everyone and help them make new friends.
