SCHOOL DIRECTORY- COMING SOON!
In the next two weeks, classroom teachers will be sharing with their families their grade specific password to access the Sato School Directory. Directory information will be sorted by grade and password protected. Only families with a student in that grade will be provided the password to access the directory information.
If you wish to add, edit, or remove your family's information listed in the directory, you can do so at anytime by completing a form on the School Directory Information: Add, Edit, or Opt-Out page.
You can read more about the school directory here. If you have any questions about the school directory or how people can access the information, please email seco@satocommunity.org.
Have a wonderful 2025!
