The Sandpiper morning news is LIVE! Grades 4 and 5 students work together to stream a live show to our school every morning. Students take turns doing all aspects of the show including anchor desk, teleprompter, graphics, cameras, lights, and sounds. It truly is a student run production. Thank you to our media specialist Ms. Carroll for her help working with students every morning.
