Welcome to Sand Lake Elementary, a 3-5 building with the Pillars of Character in front of our school. Our mission statement at SLE is: Sand Lake Elementary will educate all students to reach their potential. We as a staff believe this wholeheartedly. Along with Capturing Kids Hearts and Character Counts, we nurture, support, and challenge your child. We teach the Pillars of Character: Respect, Responsibility, Trustworthiness, Citizenship, Fairness, and Caring. We continue to have character assemblies, which the children put on themselves.
My name is Krystyna Sweeney and I have been the principal at Sand Lake Elementary for nine years. I graduated from Grand Valley State University with a BA in Elementary Education, a MA in Educational Leadership, and I have a Specialist degree in Educational Leadership as well. My husband Jim and I have been married for 35 years and have two sons living in Nashville, TN. Both of my sons are Chiropractors and are planning to open a Chiropractic Office together this fall.
Please come by and visit our school. For security reasons, all persons visiting the school are required to sign-in at the office first and require a visitor's pass. We welcome you to stop by and visit!
Mrs. Sweeney, Principal
