Dear Students and Families,

Our RISE end of year testing is coming up quickly. As you may be aware, online students will be asked to complete their testing in person at their neighborhood school. At Sandy, we will be doing this testing on Fridays, as there will not be other students in the building at that time. We have put together the following schedule for our RISE testing.

Please plan to have your student here, with their school Chromebook, during their assigned times. If they finish a test before the end of a session we will have them call home to be picked up. Most students are anticipated to finish within 90 minutes. We take a short break during the middle of the test as well.

If you have additional questions, please call the Sandy front office at 801-826-9325.

Volunteers Needed to Help Us Finish the School Year Strong

It’s time to spring into volunteering! With vaccination rates picking up, and the expanding availability of rapid COVID-19 testing, we are now able to safely welcome parents, grandparents, and other helpers back into our classrooms — and it couldn’t happen at a more opportune time.

As we look to finish the year strong, and make the most out of the last few months of instructional time, our teachers could use the extra hands and our students could use the extra encouragement.

“We’re at that point where, by taking the right precautions, it’s safe. And the help is needed,” said Canyons Superintendent Dr. Rick Robins. “One of the great strengths of Canyons District has been having parents and volunteers in our buildings working with our students, and I’m absolutely thrilled to be welcoming them back.”
