Dear East Sandy families-

Thank you everyone for attending our Parent Teacher Conferences. Please let us know if you would like to meet further and discuss your student’s needs. Also, a special thank you to our PTA for supporting all students and teachers at East Sandy! We could not do it without you!

REMINDER: There is no school tomorrow. We will see everyone back for fun and challenging learning on Monday Sep 30th.

We need more Heros. Please sign up and get a free T-shirt. Volunteer and connect with our children.

-We’ve been teaching students this week how to use their chromebooks to get onto SORA to check out eBooks, eMagazines, and audiobooks. With parental permission, they can get onto their accounts at home on their family’s devices that access the internet (smart phone, iPad, laptop, computer, etc) and I’ve attached instructions on how to do this. Please encourage your child to read and help them access SORA.

Always Keep the Spirit of a Mustang!
-Dan Ashbridge Ed.D.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE BOOK FAIR!
We hope everyone had a chance to visit the Scholastic Book Fair this week and found some great books to take home or add to their classroom libraries! Thank you to all of our amazing volunteers who helped make the book fair possible 🙂 and of course we always appreciate our grand adults who joined us for GRANDS & GOODIES!
