A Message from Dr. Ortiz, Principal of Sandy Run
Good morning, Sandy Run Families.
The past week has been filled with important and exciting opportunities for our students. Our 8th grade students were able to benefit from a powerful presentation for Yom Hashoah that discussed not only the history and importance of Holocaust Remembrance, but also the need for unity and the power that positive acts can have on society. It was a universally applicable and powerful message that we are grateful to be able to offer each year. Our 7th grade students were able to have team visits to Robbins Park to work with Ms. Fantini and her team to explore all of the lessons of nature that are in our backyard. Our sixth grade students met with their UDHS pen pals, and many are gearing up for a weekend of great performances in the 6th grade musical of Finding Nemo. With PSSAs behind us and May beginning, it is an exciting home stretch for our staff and students. I hope that you and your families are doing well. Take care and have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Dan Ortiz

Upper Dublin Boys Basketball Program.
We are running our 2nd annual Upper Dublin Boys Basketball Summer Camp for grades 3 - 8, Monday - Thursday, June 17-20, from 9 AM - 3 PM at Upper Dublin High School. The Upper Dublin High School Boys Basketball coaches and players run the camp and it is by far our biggest fundraiser of the year.
