Administration

I'm Melissa Dietzel, an educator with 25 years of experience. I hold two master's degrees and a doctorate, reflecting my passion for learning. Teaching is my true calling, and I wouldn't choose any other profession. Besides education, I enjoy reading, music, spending time with loved ones, and painting. My goal is to inspire students and help them reach their full potential. Lifelong learning is a core value for me, and I constantly strive to stay updated in the field. Through my creative pursuits, such as painting, I find joy and a means of self-expression. I am grateful for the opportunity to make a positive impact on young minds and the educational community. It's an honor to serve the Sandstone community.

My name is Melanie Del Toro and I have a deep passion for working with kids every day, which fuels my dedication to education. I hold a master’s degree and am endorsed in Early Childhood, Tier One, Two, and Three Reading, Reading Interventions, English as a Second Language, and Administration. Outside of the classroom, I love hiking, kayaking, reading, and especially spending quality time with my family. I also enjoy learning new things and exploring new places through travel. Being a Raptor at Sandstone is an incredible experience, and I’m truly grateful to be part of this wonderful community.
