Tonight’s East Sac County High School Winter Concert was great! ❄️🎶 After needing to reschedule, we are so grateful for the flexibility and understanding of our students, families, and community. Your support means so much. Our band and choir students did an amazing job, filling the gym with festive music and showcasing their hard work and dedication. We couldn’t be prouder of them for such a wonderful performance. Thank you to everyone who helped make tonight a success and to all who came out to support our students. We wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! 🎄

Mrs. Degner's high school guitar class went to Twilight Acres on Monday to play Christmas carols for some of their residents. What a great way to kick off Christmas week!

Today, East Sac County’s very own after-school mentors from the New Opportunities Mentoring Program joined us for High Five Friday! As always, it’s wonderful to have our ESC high school students greeting our young Raiders as they arrive at school. The After-School Mentoring Program provides a great opportunity for many of our students, and we truly appreciate the time and dedication these high schoolers give each week to make a difference.

Landon Sporrer signed his Letter of Intent to run at Northwestern College in Orange City.

Congratulations Landon and Best of Luck next year!

Tonight's 9-12 music concert has been postponed due to blowing snow and visibility concerns in portions of the district. A new date will be announced when it's determined.

East Sac County is aware of the unexpected snow showers that are impacting travel conditions to the north of our district. In the event travel is unsafe at the time of dismissal, students will be kept safe in the school buildings until visibility and conditions improve. Given the current conditions at this time we are expecting a normal dismissal. We are monitoring the situation.

Reminder - 9-12 Vocal and Band Concert tonight!

Cold and Flu season is upon us. Here is a friendly reminder from our East Sac County School Nurse. Thank you for your cooperation with these recommendations!
