Sandridge Elementary School

I recently attended Muffins with mom. It was nice to see the turnout. In the future, I hope to see more involvement from our community. We need to spend quality time with our children. And I feel that these activities will bring our community closer together. This is our childrens history and we will do our best to make it memorable.

Great School for a small Community with only a few issues! The Teachers for the most part are wonderful, a couple could use an attitude adjustment! The new additions to the School are very welcomed-we certainly needed them! Thanks to the Academic programs-I was happy to see Honor Roll Certificates arrive home! The lack of parent involvement is disturbing as well as the lack of extracurricular activities! If you pick up your kid after school they release your child to you one car at a time-great for security! They could of expanded the parking lot even bigger to accommodate all the cars, maybe making it 3 rows at a time instead of 1, makes for a extremely long pickup time.

This school has some good teachers, but that does not make up for how bad some are I am not critizing their teaching style but their actual behaviors.As for extracurricular activities their are few. I personally feel sorry for any student enrolled there, and hope their parents enroll them in a more mature and educationally friendly school environment.

Sandridge offers students an excellent educational experience that is added to immensely by the family atmosphere that this small community school provides. The teachers and administrators go above and beyond to attend to the needs of the students and the parents. The school currently has children enrolled who are the fifth generation of their family to attend this school. The changes made to this facility over the years are amazing. The students receive all they need to prepare them for their future. I have had 2 children graduate so far---one daughter has earned straight A's throughout high school & college and the other daughter is an honor roll student recently named to NHS in high school. All 3 of my children have perfect attendance each year in school and I credit that love of learning to Sandridge!

My Children attended Sandridge many years ago, they graduated in the top 30 of their high school class. Sandridge provided a very sound foundation for my children. I feel that too many parents believe that it is the schools responsibility to raise their children. I was very involved in the school and I found the staff to be wonderful and very caring. The school may not have offered all the up-to-date teaching procedures, but somehow my children seemed to do very well. It is the parents responsibility to make sure that their children receive a good education. Sandridge may be little but it has a lot to offer.
