Dear Sandstone Families,

As we close out another incredible school year, I want to take a moment to celebrate all that we have accomplished together. This year’s theme—“Work Hard, BEE Kind, and Amazing Things Will Happen”—has truly come to life in our school. Our students have worked hard to grow academically and personally, and I have been inspired daily by their kindness, perseverance, and enthusiasm for learning.

Sandstone is a special place because of the strong partnership between students, families, and staff. Your support, encouragement, and involvement make all the difference in creating a school community where students feel safe, valued, and empowered to succeed. Whether cheering on your child at events, helping with homework, or simply being there to encourage them each day, your dedication is deeply appreciated.

To our students—you are the heart of Sandstone! Your curiosity, creativity, and kindness make this school a wonderful place to learn and grow. Each of you has shown what it means to be a true Raptor, and I hope you take pride in all that you have accomplished this year.

As we head into summer, I encourage all of you to take time to relax, recharge, and enjoy time with family and friends. Whether you’re exploring new hobbies, reading great books, or making memories with loved ones, I hope this summer is full of joy and adventure.

A special congratulations to our fifth-grade students as they take the next step in their journey. We will miss you, but we know you are ready to soar to new heights!

Thank you for a fantastic school year. It is a privilege to be part of such a wonderful community.

With gratitude,
Melissa Dietzel
Principal, Sandstone Elementary School
