What's Happening in the Sandwich Public Schools

October 11, 2025

Seniors Learn About Dollars & Sense

Students and adults gather in a gymnasium, some using laptops during the Credit for Life event.
The Sandwich Middle High School Class of 2026 recently had the opportunity to take part in the Credit for Life, a fun, hands-on simulation where they explored saving, spending, and budgeting based on career choices and lifestyle decisions.

Thank you to Cape Cod 5 for sponsoring this event so our students learn the importance of making smart financial choices and setting priorities as they take the next step toward adulthood.
A screen displays a quote ""Show me your budget and I'll tell you what your priorities are.") about budgeting and priorities.
 

Oak Ridge Students Enjoy Fine Music

The Bart Wesiman  jazz trio performs on the stage of the Oak Ridge MultiPurpose Room for an audience of 6th grade students.
This week Oak Ridge students got a musical treat with two separate concerts, one by the locally renowned jazz group, the Bart Weisman Trio (pictured above), who performed for 5th and 6th grade students on Wednesday. On Friday, 3rd and 4th grade students enjoyed the chamber music of woodwind quintet, Vento Chiaro Both ducational concerts placed emphasis on interactions with the students. By sharing and deconstructing interesting elements of the selected music, the aim was to inspire auditory discoveries and enrich the students' listening experience.
