Hello, Sanger Families!
We are so thrilled to welcome our Stallions back to campus this Tuesday, August 11th!
It was such a joy connecting with so many of our families at Sanger’s New Family Orientation and Meet the Teacher Night. Seeing our students and families back on campus filled the staff and I with such excitement for the year ahead!
A new school year brings so many opportunities to learn, grow, connect, and celebrate! Our staff is ready to create memorable learning experiences for our students, cheer them on, and celebrate alongside them every step of the way.
Here’s to what is sure to be a wonderful 2026–2027 school year! We can’t wait to get started!
See you very soon, Stallions!
-Principal Benedetto 💚

Upcoming Event: Chalk the Walk
PK3-Kindergarten Day 1 Drop Off
Our PK3-Kinder team is excited to offer the opportunity for parents to walk their student to their classroom door on the first day of school! This will only be an option on Tuesday, August 11th. The hope is that this helps our littles and their families feel supported on such a special day in their educational journey!
Logistics: Doors open at 7:30am. Parents can park in second lane of drop off or farther down San Leandro Dr. (not oh Whittier Ave.). The entrance for PK3-Kinder will be through the playground entrance. Parents will be able to drop their student off at the classroom door and then exit. There will be signs for guidance and we will pass out maps/details at meet the teacher.

Habrá letreros para orientar a las familias y distribuiremos mapas e información adicional durante el evento de Conozca al Maestro.
Arrival/Dismissal
We are committed to ensuring that arrival and dismissal are safe and efficient. Please be mindful that there may be more congestion and traffic during the first few days. Our team will be reviewing systems and will be sending out feedback forms to help us get this right for families!
Middle School Note: There is no advisory first period. Students report to their 1st period on A-days and their 6th period on B-days.
There will be no parking on San Leandro in front of the campus prior to dismissal. This helps to keep the flow of traffic moving once dismissal begins. After meeting with our Sanger community with safety at the forefront, Whittiers Ave. will not be used for any kind of parking during dismissal. Thank you!
We will have a large staff/admin presence at dismissal. Please be mindful/respectful of the drop-off and pick-up zone for ALL grades. This keeps traffic moving and there will be staff directing our families. Thank you!
Car Tags and Sibling Tags: If you did not receive a sibling tag at Meet the Teacher, your student will recieve one day 1. If you did not receive a car tag at Meet the Teacher, you'll recieve one day 1. All students will recieve a color-coded/laminated car tag day 1.
Car Tags
-Displayed on car dashboard
-Color-coded by grade-level
Sibling Tags- We love our Sanger siblings!
-Middle students (6th-8th) with an elementary sibling receive an orange tag on their backpack to identify them for the staggered release.
-Elementary students (PreK-5th) with a sibling receive a yellow tag on their backpack to identify them for staggered release.
Grade Level One-Pagers
These one-pagers were created by our teachers to share helpful information for parents/families as they begin the new school year!
Middle School Updates
We have exciting news for our 6th-8th grade students! Beginning this school year, all 6th-8th grade students who bring a cell phone to school will use a Yondr pouch to securely store their device during the school day.
Please review the attached letters linked here in Spanish and English for information about Yondr and how the pouches will be used.
Students who bring a cell phone to school will receive their Yondr pouch during their 6th period (B day) class on the first day of school. This new process will keep devices secure while allowing our students to stay focused, engaged, and ready to learn throughout the school day.
Thank you for your partnership and support as we work together to create the best possible learning environment for our students!
Reminder: The first day of school is a B Day! Students will report to their 6th period class.
Construction Update
Construction is officially underway at Sanger! Our first phase includes improvements to the front offices and auditorium—no classrooms are impacted.
We're excited for the fresh new look and the addition of a secure vestibule, which will enhance safety. Arrival and dismissal plans have been carefully designed with construction in mind.
Thank you for your patience as we make these exciting improvements to our campus!

Join the PTA
Join the PTA for 2026/27!
Your PTA membership makes a direct difference for every student at our school. In past years, Dollar Days meant only students who brought $1 got to participate in free dress. This year, the PTA is covering that cost for the whole school — so every student gets to enjoy free dress, no matter what. Beyond what it funds, membership gives you a voice: members can vote on how PTA funds are spent and help shape the programs that shape your child's year at school. It's one of the easiest ways for a busy parent to make a real difference — no meetings required, though you're always welcome. Join today, and help make sure every Stallion — not just your own — gets the full Sanger experience.
¡Únete a la PTA para el año escolar 2026/27!
Tu membresía en la PTA marca una diferencia directa para cada estudiante de nuestra escuela. En años anteriores, los Dollar Days significaban que solo los estudiantes que traían $1 podían participar en el día de vestimenta libre. Este año, la PTA cubrirá ese costo para toda la escuela, para que todos los estudiantes puedan disfrutar de vestimenta libre, sin importar qué. La membresía de la PTA va más allá de lo que financia. Ser miembro te da voz: los miembros pueden votar sobre cómo se utilizan los fondos de la PTA y ayudar a dar forma a los programas que influyen en la experiencia escolar de tu hijo(a) durante todo el año. Es una de las maneras más fáciles para que un padre o una madre con poco tiempo pueda hacer una verdadera diferencia — no se requiere asistir a reuniones, aunque siempre serás bienvenido(a). ¡Únete hoy y ayúdanos a asegurarnos de que cada Stallion — no solo el tuyo — tenga la experiencia Sanger completa!
