Sand Springs Schools offers visionary programs
January 21, 2022
At Capital Homes, we know school districts are important to any family with school-aged children looking for a new place to call home.
That's why we build homes in communities near great schools where families will be excited to send their kids. We recently toured Sand Springs Public Schools with Superintendent Sherry Durkee to get the behind-the-scenes scoop on the impressive programs they've developed for the success of their students.
Through a rigorous curriculum and a variety of career academic offerings, Sand Springs Schools works to engage students in academic and career development opportunities to help students develop career interests for post-secondary pursuits.
