Overview:

Sanchez School is an EL Education Learning themed school. As an EL School, the teachers inspire and empower students to unleash their potential.

Learning at Sanchez is not only fun but active, challenging, meaningful, public and collaborative. Our students engage in Student Led Conferences (SLCs) and are empowered to be leaders of their own learning. Our Community Meetings are open to the school community and highlight student learning and student voice. The Crew Council is a group of students who represent their classmates and are the voice of their class. They help to make decisions about their school community through meetings with the principal.

We follow the PEER Code, which is a collection of character traits that help ensure the success of all students through Perseverance, Enthusiasm, Exploration, and Respect.
