Sand Ridge "Shark Bites" Update
April 17, 2022 - Issue #28
Happy Sunday Shark Families!!
I hope that everyone has had a WONDERFUL Spring Break and got whatever they wanted, whether that was adventure, relaxation, or a little of both!
PTO is still looking for volunteers to help with Popcorn Fridays! Please call the office if you cannot contact them and we will put you in touch. It is just a couple hours, a lot of fun, and very much appreciated! Please consider helping.
Tomorrow is a Teacher Workday, which means one more day of vacation for students. We can't wait to see them return on Tuesday!
Looking forward to a wonderful Spring and all the great things to come at SRE!!

SAND RIDGE TEACHER AND TEACHER ASSISTANT OF THE YEAR NAMED
Mrs. Dana Rivera (left) and Mrs. Eleanor Jarvis (right) were named the 2022 Teacher of the Year and Teacher Assistant of the Year at a staff celebration on April 6, 2022. This honor is bestowed upon them by their peers. We are very proud of both of these amazing educators!
Thank you to the Swansboro Baseball and Softball League for their generous donation of snacks and supplies for our classrooms! We appreciate your thoughtfulness and are glad to call you a community partner!
ROAD TO READING NIGHT - A WONDERFUL SUCCESS!
Thank you to our staff, students and families for making our "Road to Reading Night" such a wonderful success! It was such a joy to have our families back in the building again! Please enjoy just a few snapshots from the evening below.
A special THANK YOU to the two amazing educators in the first photo below. Our Title I teachers Kelly Hardison and Gina Boyer are responsible for the planning and creating of this fantastic event!
ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL WEEK
The week before Spring Break was also Assistant Principal Week and we had a lot of fun celebrating Mr. Henderson! We know we have one of the best and our students and staff showered him with notes and posters, some confetti, and a few harmless pranks. We know Mr. Henderson appreciates a little fun and we wrapped his truck in plastic wrap to help him celebrate.
Thank you, Mr. Henderson, for being the best Assistant Principal around!
