Sandy Grove was a great school. The past year with a new principal, I have had bad experiences. She doesn''t spend time with students and has no personality. My children so far do not like the way school is since she has taken over. So, the school board may need to start asking questions and looking into it.

Sandy Grove has an excellent special education program. Our child has increased in progress, and we feel that we are very fortunate to have our child attend Sandy Grove Elementary. Another plus is that a new Sandy Grove Middle School has been built, and there are plans for a high school in the near future.
