Principal's Message to Families, 4/24/23
Sanford Creek Families,
Thank you to everyone who came out to support our third graders and Songbirds Chorus last week! A very huge shout-out for our music teacher, Ms. Stanton and all the specialists who put on another amazing show! Also, thank you to all who bought concessions and/or made a donation for the SCE music program. $800 was raised!
We are so excited for the Spring Carnival and hope to see you and your family on Saturday, April 29 from 11-3pm. Lastly, this week, we are celebrating our Speech Pathologists: Sherri Bosely and Whitney Todd and our front office administrative assistants: Alicia Matthews, Lyndi Malarchuk and Maria Moncayo. All of these ladies are phenomenal in serving students, staff and SCE families.
Have a great week!
Tiffany Rich, Principal
