Sand Creek’s Class of 2026, a Class of Excellence

Sand Creek High School’s class of 2026 walked, skipped  and danced across the stage to receive their diplomas on Saturday, May 23, at the Broadmoor World Arena.

Family and friends of more than 300 high school seniors packed the World Arena to cheer on their graduates.

Keira Teeples Elected Student Speaker 2026 speaking at podium

Keira Teeples, elected student speaker, said, “Are we going to allow these years of our lives to be solely summed up by our diplomas, caps and gowns? If so, we sorely missed the point.”  She continued, “It is not just the diploma that is important, but the people we have become in the process of obtaining it.”

Sand Creek Principal, Amy Sanchez-Martinez, listed some of the outstanding accomplishments of the class of 2026:

  • 12 students had already graduated with an associate’s degree
  • Students in the health sciences capstone had a 94 percent passing rate on phlebotomy and EKG technician certifications, 20 percent higher than the national passing rate.
  • More students took part in the military signing than in the past 5 years.
  • Over $72 million in scholarship offers and nearly 2000 college admission offers.

Congratulations and good luck to the Sand Creek class of 2026!
