Sandpiper Spotlight: October 2011

The school year has started off well! We enjoyed a wonderful Back-to-School night on September 8 and are now gearing up for several exciting activities.

This year, our first walking school bus will take place on October 5, International Walk to School Day. Neighborhood liaisons will be in place to help groups of students and parents who walk or ride their bikes and scooters to school. We are trying our best to “keep it green” at Sandpiper School.

The Sandpiper PTA presents “Under the Harvest Moon: Food, Fun & Friends” on Saturday, November 5, at Domenico Winery in San Carlos. This annual fundraiser features a Silent Auction of items and baskets made by the individual classes along with Teacher Gifts of Time and other generous donations by the Sandpiper and Redwood Shores community.The Live Auction, buffet dinner catered by Eatz Catering and dancing are highlights that will make the evening a night to remember! The funds raised by this event will benefit the school and children directly as the Sandpiper PTA provides classroom and student materials, field trip costs, technology, PE equipment, visual arts programs, student assemblies and more.
