Big shoutout to the Sanford High School students who visited Sanford Middle School this morning! They took time out of their day to sit down with our rising 9th graders and share their firsthand experiences at SHS — real voices, real stories, and exactly the kind of peer connection that makes a difference. Thank you for helping pave the way!
This week, we celebrate our incredible assistant principals, the backbone of our schools. Thank you for your tireless dedication, your open doors, and your unwavering support of students, staff, and families. Happy National Assistant Principals Week!

Staff and students had the chance to stop by yesterday, ask questions, and even serve as judges, giving students a real-world presenting experience that goes beyond the classroom.
