Sand Creek Zone June Newsletter
End of the School Year Thoughts
We have finished another successful school year for the Sand Creek Zone. I want to say thank you to our staff, parents and community members. I very much appreciate our team’s sacrifice, dedication, and enthusiasm in addressing students’ success. The “Pursuit of Excellence” is not easy. Knowing how much energy goes into preparing our learners each day, it is important to find time this summer to relax, enjoy a break, and spend time with families. Have a great summer! - Sean Dorsey
